NCTribute Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 Think Pathfinder needs to change from the Angler Driven slogan to Recreational Boater Driven. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose77 Posted May 25, 2022 Report Share Posted May 25, 2022 We just bought a 2005...nice boat and we like it very much. My dealer is waiting on "an announcement" from Pathfinder. I called and they are apparently going to continue this model for boat clubs, resorts, etc...but it won't be available to regular retail customers. We'll see. Part of me wonders if my rig has now lost value, and the other part doesn't care because it's a nice boat for what we want to do. Hard not to be a little cynical.

BColley Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 Did the 24TRS have poor sales? I love mine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HewesYourDaddy Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 Wow. This is going to be interesting to see what news comes out of the factory about available models. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose77 Posted May 30, 2022 Report Share Posted May 30, 2022 We love ours too. The ride needs a little refinement, but I’m guessing a 4 blade prop is gonna be the ticket. We got out today and caught a bunch of trout and miscellaneous stuff…great time, and the rig is so nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currituck Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 Here is why I think the 2005TRS is gone. With a finite ability to produce boats, why would you take up production capacity with a boat that you make a smaller net margin on. We love ours but I told our local dealer 10 months ago that I did not understand why they still made the model. Regulator dropped their 21' model years a go to free up capacity to build more profitable (larger) boats. As for the future value of the 2005TRS....look again to the Regulator 21'. They are highly sought after and were very expensive even prior to the used boat value explosion we now see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goose77 Posted June 1, 2022 Report Share Posted June 1, 2022 Currituck. This is a thoughtful post, and I’m guessing you are spot on. There’s always gonna be room for smaller rigs…they have many efficiencies. But you can’t blame the manufacturers for making hay while they can.

Stevenb Posted July 7, 2022 Report Share Posted July 7, 2022 Stopped by my dealer today, he said the 2400 is now going to have a step. New deck layout including an open option. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goose77 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 Yeah, I think that 2400 looks like heck. Trying to please everyone, leaving successful roots…I think it’s a bad idea. My bride and I went fishing today in our new 2005. The more I run that boat, the more I like it. The more we run it, the smoother it seems to run. Nice fishing platform.

redzone1 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 As a serious inshore fisherman, tournament angler, and part time guide, I am sickened by this new 24trs design. Oh well, I was never going to pay the new boat prices anyway. Owning a “pre-Malibu” MBG boat will end up being a badge of honor, sort of like a “pre-Bass Pro Shops” Ranger, Mako, SeaCraft. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geeviam Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 All it needs now is some metalflake, adhesive stripes or wrap, and a wakeboard tower - to appeal to an even broader market. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redzone1 Posted July 24, 2022 Report Share Posted July 24, 2022 It’s basically a Sportsman now. Taking away the center line aft live well to make room for more rear seating screams sand bar rig to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goose77 Posted August 5, 2022 Report Share Posted August 5, 2022 We’re getting out in our new 2005 model about every other day. Have been able to nose out several miles at times. The inshore fish are in deeper water now because it’s been so doggone hot. This rig is performing really well, and I’m liking it.We’re getting a lot of fish, so that helps.
