2023 Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid Boat in Cape Coral, FL 33993 US

2023 PATHFINDER 2500 HYBRID

PEARL FUSION WHITE MERCURY 300 V8 VERADO

ONLY 129.14 HOURS

CUSTOM SPORT TRAIL TRAILER INCLUDED

This exceptionally well-equipped 2023 Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid combines one of Pathfinder's most desirable color combinations with the premium Pearl Fusion White Mercury 300 V8 Verado power package and only 129.14 hours of light use. She has been kept protected inside a dry-storage marina in Naples, Florida, for her entire life. The beautiful light-blue hull, matching hardtop underside, white powder-coated framework, premium upholstery and rich teak-pattern accents give this Pathfinder a clean, upscale appearance that stands apart from the typical bay boat.

UPGRADED PEARL FUSION WHITE VERADO PACKAGE

This is not the standard Mercury 300 V8 FourStroke. It is the upgraded 4.6-liter Mercury 300 V8 Verado finished in premium Pearl Fusion White-an approximately $2,000 factory paint upgrade when ordered new over the standard black Mercury 300 V8 configuration.

The Verado package adds important performance and comfort upgrades: Another 4,000 upgrade

• Mercury Advanced MidSection (AMS) for dramatically reduced vibration

• SmartCraft Digital Throttle & Shift

• Integrated electro-hydraulic power steering

• Higher-output 115-amp charging system

• Advanced under-cowl noise management

• Adaptive Speed Control

• Advanced Range Optimization

• Exceptionally smooth, quiet and responsive operation

• Premium Pearl Fusion White factory finish

After personally testing the Mercury 300 V8 Verado against the Yamaha 300 V6, we can say without hesitation that the difference is immediately noticeable. The Verado delivers substantially stronger bottom-end torque, quicker acceleration, a smoother and quieter ride and noticeably better cruising efficiency.

During our own real-world testing, the Mercury produced approximately 20% to 25% better fuel economy than comparable Yamaha 300 V6-powered packages. Actual results naturally vary with fuel load, passengers, fishing tackle, weather, water conditions and running speed, but the efficiency advantage remained consistent throughout our testing, due to lower RPM's and less stress on the V8.

The large-displacement 4.6-liter V8 also provides tremendous low-end and midrange power, allowing the Pathfinder's stepped hull to climb onto plane quickly without excessive bow rise. That immediate response is especially valuable when leaving a shallow basin, navigating a narrow channel or accelerating into open water.

Mercury's Advanced MidSection isolates engine vibration from the boat, creating an exceptionally smooth and quiet experience at idle and throughout the RPM range. Digital throttle and shift provide precise control around the dock, while Adaptive Speed Control maintains engine RPM as loads and water conditions change. Advanced Range Optimization continually adjusts fuel delivery to maximize cruising efficiency and extend range.

In our experience, this is the strongest-performing, smoothest and most desirable 300-horsepower package available for the Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid.

TRUE HYBRID VERSATILITY

The Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid is built for anglers who refuse to be limited to one style of boating. Its expansive forward casting deck, shallow draft, dual Power-Poles and trolling-motor system make it a formidable flats and backcountry fishing platform. At the same time, its stepped hull, generous beam and 16-degree transom deadrise provide the stability and confidence needed for coastal, nearshore and open-bay conditions.

This is a boat equally at home sight-fishing shallow flats, working mangrove shorelines, running across Charlotte Harbor or San Carlos Bay, fishing the passes or spending a comfortable afternoon with family and friends.

CONDITION AND STORAGE HISTORY

The boat's clean gelcoat, upholstery, powder coating, metalwork, electronics and rigging reflect the benefits of lifelong indoor dry storage. The center-console rigging compartment remains clean and accessible, with neatly organized electrical components, battery systems, breakers and hydraulic equipment.

This is not an average Pathfinder 2500 Hybrid. It combines extremely low hours, lifelong indoor dry storage, one of the most attractive color combinations offered, an extensive equipment package, premium lithium power and a custom Sport Trail trailer with the upgraded Pearl Fusion White Mercury 300 V8 Verado-the power package we would personally choose for this hull.

Step into the 2500 Hybrid and you'll instantly feel the difference of the most spacious bay boat under 25 feet there is. No more feeling crowded or having to move people out of the way to get around. The unique layout also allows for more storage space than you'll ever need and a 45 gallon insulated fishbox. Plus, with more freeboard height, a notched aft bulkhead, and added cockpit space aft, you can still comfortably fish from the security of the cockpit in big water conditions. And because the 2500 Hybrid is vacuum infused, there's no 25 foot bay boat with a better strength to weight ratio. That's why with all its features and capabilities it still only drafts a true 13.5 inches, runs upwards of 60 mph, and jumps on plane in water too shallow for some flats boats.
