I llllove the Pathfinder boats. Was lobbying hard for my dad to buy one, but "they don't have a dealer close enough"


Pathfinders are really good boats. My brother in law had one and it rode great and was great for inshore fishing.

I would just leave it parked in my yard until I could fill it up once a year.

I probably couldn't either. But the restrictions didn't say we couldn't hire a captain to run charters off of it and make $$$$. I'd be able to afford it then.

fortunately I was able to get mine! An Allison xb-2002, can't post pics from phone though



Awesome boat. But money no object I think I would have to go with the XB-21.

Used to always dream of this. I have privilege of fishing one pretty much whenever I want along with working it during tourneys. My good friend owns it. Realized I never want to own one.


So the dream is what I already fish fish out of most the time Jupiter 31 Open

Would love a 64 viking.

Could get the hook up on diesel by stopping at platforms where people I know work.

But realistically a 42yf. Haha

Aah, my fault. I overlooked the aluminum part. I don't know if I've ever seen a 40 ft aluminum catamaran.

Ideally Gravois but they have that government contract right now and that is all they are doing.

They are currently opperating under the name "Metal Shark"

Go check out their website, the boats are insane
