Dear New Boat Owner,
Welcome to the Pathfinder Family!
Thank you for choosing a Pathfinder boat to transport you to
your angling dreams. We believe the Pathfinder 2600 HPS is the
best all-purpose boat on the market, and we're sure that you'll be
completely satisfied with the unmatched performance, quality and
fishability of your new boat.
We value your input, not just at the time of the sale, but
throughout the entire boat ownership period, and we've taken
steps to allow you to share that information. Over the next year or
so, you will receive at least two questionnaires to fill out and return.
Be sure to visit our website
information on company events like our Owner's Tournaments and
Corporate Calendar. You'll find a wealth of information on our
Forum, where you can ask questions, get answers and join other
Pathfinder owners to discuss all applications of your boat. We're
proud to have you as a member of the Pathfinder family!
Tight lines and screaming drags!
D. Scott Deal

    S Y S TEM S Ball Valves Ball valves can be used to serve several purposes. They allow seawater to enter the boat, in the case of livewells, and they also act as a safeguard to stop water from entering in case of part failure, and function as an emergency shutoff.

  • Page 11: Bilge System

    Bilge The bilge of your Pathfinder 2600 HPS should always be checked after launch. A small amount of water in the bilge is normal for this area of the boat. Large amounts of water or any signs of fuel or oil require immediate attention. Never pump fuel or oil overboard while your boat is in the water.

    FUEL SYSTEM Your Pathfinder 2600 HPS comes with a 80-gallon aluminum fuel cell stationed midship between the stringers just below and in front of the console. The fuel fill receptacle is on the port gunwale forward of the console. There's also a recessed fuel overflow vent on the port side of the boat just below the fuel receptacle.

    S ELF - B A ILIN G C O C KP IT & LIV EWELL Self Bailing Cockpit The cockpit on your Pathfinder 2600 HPS is designed to be self-bailing, so that all water that comes into the cockpit can immediately flush out the back of the boat. This avoids holding standing water and allows the boat to drain at all times, including while docked.

    Trim Tabs Trim tabs are an optional item on the Pathfinder 2600 HPS. We use integrated 9 X 12-inch Lenco electric trim tabs which can enhance the boat’s performance. Because the tabs are electric, there is no hydraulic trim tab pump, thus eliminating the possibility for fluid leaks as with other trim tab manufacturers.

Your local Pathfinder dealership is where you will take your boat for service and repair, as well as to address any warranty issues. Pathfinder is fortunate to have an outstanding dealer network selling and servicing our boats.
