We have now added a 36v Trolling motor and 2 more batteries, not getting the full RPM range now. These were recorded with a 15x21 SWSII SDS 3 blade Yamaha prop.

Capt. Troy Posted August 3, 2016 Report Share Posted August 3, 2016 Impressive for that size boat. Running square with a load. Seems the steps are doing their job at 30 MPH. Not a lot of boats can do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeSTJC Posted August 5, 2016 Report Share Posted August 5, 2016 Thanks for the great post Skip. I love my 24TRS but this looks like another great addition to your Pathfinder line. Well done! I'd love to move my steering wheel to the left or right since it's awkward steering with someone sitting next to you in choppy water at cruising speed.

flatwater Posted September 10, 2016 Report Share Posted September 10, 2016 Pictures of this boat don't do it justice. Just got the chance to look this boat over and I was thoroughly impressed. I went to the boat show to check out a few similar boats and the build quality and attention to detail on the 25 was far and above all others. MBG really built a winner with this one.

linesider 159 Posted September 22, 2016 Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 I believe that is Jays boat. How come this boat is so much faster than the others? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
localangler Posted September 22, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2016 How much speed does a full fiberglass hardtop cost you? That's probably a big chunk of the difference between the weight and wind resistance. I know my soft t top costs me speed and economy. Then add in environmental differences for the day and I bet that covers the rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
