Default Pathfinder 23 HPS
Does anyone have experience with Pathfinder's new 23' HPS?

They mention that the boat was built specifically around Yamaha's Super High Output (SHO), but also show it on the website with the new Yamaha 300 4-stroke. Was wondering if anyone has any performance numbers on either setup too...

I saw an article in a boating magazine last week. 65 mph.
Draws 10 to 12 inches.
I did see it was built specifically for the new Yamaha.
I like it, but I don't like the price.
I can get a good used 34 ft. sportfisher with twin diesels for less than that.

chris coulter claims his 24HO's will do 70 loaded with a 300, plus his rigs are 20K cheaper and probably ride as good or better.

I'll wait for some rich dude to buy one. Then sell it after 5 years of not using it.

How much do the Lake & Bays run compared to these?

So a 24 Haynie HO with a 300 runs about 40k?

Any boat over $50k for me better have a comfortable bed, generator, and a very cold air conditioner!
