Description
From weed lines to tide rips to oyster bars all in the same day, the 2600 HPS has all the performance and features that make it the most versatile bay boat ever built. Imagine the possibilities: a high performance, twin- stepped hull and huge casting decks with walk-around gunwales; fore and aft offshore tournament-grade livewells and undergunwale fly rod storage; maximum freeboard, still trolling motor capable and with a fishbox big enough to fit a smoker king. And that’s just what comes standard. Never before has there been such a combination of big-water features in a boat that will still seriously fish in 15 inches of water. And like all stepped hull Pathfinders, the 2600 HPS is now built using vacuum infusion, so you’ll be able to cover more ground faster and more fuel efficiently.
