This Boat is Going to Disturb the Boat Market 

Congrats on the new boat! You have a very humble tone when explaining the boat and it’s features. Much success to you both!

Great video guys. Congrats onbyou new boat it is awesome. With that being said, Simplicity is 🔑 specially as you get older in life.i go fishing ones a week. I love my 23 center console single engine. Short sweet and to the point 👉 Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see what your going to break her when you guys go fishing

Congratulations on the new Pathfinder! Looks amazing! Im sure that you two will enjoy the heck out of it & look forward to seeing you guys do some great fishing on that boat! Happy holidays!

Smart move blurring out the debit card! 4K resolution isn't any joke, they'll easily zoom in haha

Very nice boat, just be careful ( I know you will ) with bridges “under pass” and electrical cords while towing it etc. Super nice !

I’ve been looking at a Whaler, Dorado, Gause Built & Caymas for half a year. I watched this episode and bought the Pathfinder 2400 Open. I’m glad I chanced upon your channel. I feel comfortable I made the right choice. Thank you..!!! UPDate: Design can't be beat. So many things have gone wrong and the dealer I purchased boat from I the first time in 60 years of boating the worst dealership when it comest to warranty work and a lot has gone wrong. One other suggestion is don't suggest 8' power poles because they will not hold the boat in 4' + when we need to use them for fishing spoils and especially casting for bait fish. doesn't handle well near offshore waters 20' to 65'. emergancy anchor even covered in rubber and tennis balls poked hole in bow. were selling it. Took a huge hit on it but live and learn even at my retirement age.

Don’t like it at all! Don’t like the hull curves, something about it looks off. Amenities are ok. I like my 2021 24 TRS way better.

That’s almost like a “hybrid hybrid”. Seems just a hair above a standard bay hybrid as far as the higher bow rise and hull. Love the bilge access too. Beautiful rig. Would love to see it with bow cushions on to see it’s sand bar stance for lounging out too. Stern space is gigantic for a 24. Very nice

Take me to lunch........Thats why we're going fishing darling!

New viewer from Wyoming. Loving the channel. Looking forward to visiting the keys haven’t been that far south in Florida.

Congrats on the boat, it's gorgeous Q- why the downsizing from Contender to a bayboat? Are you comfortable heading to the Bahamas on a 24 single screw? Jealous of that tower..congrats again

Any plans to do a one year boat review, on the Pathfinder 2400 Open? Good, Bad or Amazing…

Absolutely love your boat, specially the cockpit and the tower, Genius design

Tremendous boat that was bought. perfect size. I hope God helps you both enjoy it. Just one question... With that boat, can you go out to sea with a lot of waves like you do with the Contender? or is it just a coastal boat?

So exciting to be with you for your delivery! Does the tower affect (highway) towing much?

Thanks for sharing. It’s one of the nicest boats I’ve seen. As the old saying goes, if you have to ask the price you can’t afford it

a HUGE congratulations on the new boat, guys as It seems to be the perfect fit for your needs! I am SOOOOOOO looking forward to future videos, watching you guys fight and catch big ole' fish! The features you opted for (and that TOWER) are indispensable and as you said are a game changer! Super excited for you and can't wait so see more! I simply LOVE your channel!!

I think the best part of the vid is Stephanie’s perfect execution of a proper cleat knot at 8:42 😎 beautiful boat! Congratulations

Will you make a Bahama's run in the new boat?

What an awesome boat. I've been waiting very patiently (kinda) to see the new boat. Congrats and looking forward to seeing al the upgrades and the adventures you guys will be taking!!!

Congratulations on your new boat!!!! Can y’all make a video on how much fuel it burns and why did y’all choose garmin vs simrad ? Just explaining stuff about the boat and why y’all made the choices y’all did.

Guys I love the new boat it’s beautiful I love centre console boats do not really see many of them here in Australia.. Again congratulations on the new boat and I can’t wait to see tons of videos with you guys and all the new but old things you guys will do in this awesome boat. When I say new but old I mean places you have been in your old boat but with the new one.. On a separate note I really wish you guys carried larger sizes with the mercy you guys make and sell if there is any chance you guys making larger sizes like maybe 5 to 6 xl with your long sleeve shirts and short sleeve shirts that would be awesome as I would buy a ton

Congratulations to you all! I love the new boat and as always, thank you for taking us with you on the journey!

Clay....the new boat is sweet.... Check out the feature for your electric steering. You can set up your steering at low speeds lock to lock. Less turns and at high speeds it goes back to less responsive steering.

Superb choice guys….. great builder and love the hybrid’ design advantages. I am an old Navy salt watching hull design morph and improve in stability, ride and fuel consumption. And you have the full package! Good call on the tower also…. the difference in “ good eyes” on the water is unbelievable. I wish you both many days to come on this beauty, safe, happy and prosperous.

New Boat Day! This actually says a LOT about how much you liked the Pathfinder 22. Looking forward to seeing how you build it out. AND another restaurant recommendation! Keep those coming. Congrats you three (always pulling for Zach)!

What an awesome, versatile boat. My husband kept asking me "when are they getting their new boat?" Glad you got it. Can't wait to see all the bells and whistles you put on it.

Awesome congrats you guys. Can’t wait to see it in action. Curious how you feel about having 1 motor and going far offshore?

Awesome ride! Bilge access is one of the main reasons I am on my second Sportsman bay boat, a lot to be said for total bilge access that most manufactures ignore.

Congratulations on the new boat! We'll deserved.

Good luck with you Pathfinder X5. Interesting you are selling your current boat so quickly.

Awesome boat. Can't wait for my invite to go fishing.

Congratulations and Major respect to right sizing for your lives and needs! Couldn’t agree more with the choice. Looking forward to following the fit out! Maybe we can catch you guys next time we are in the area?!

beautiful toy kid's. luv u both.

WOW!! Congrat's, Well deserved, You guys work so hard to give us these awsome video's. So happy for you.Can't wait to see some fish flopping on the deck.Stay safe my friend's

Great boat. That bilge access is outstanding. I also stopped using non-ethanol fuel several years ago. Current outboards are designed to handle E10 and if you use your boat frequently, there is no reason to pay for ethanol free.

Congratulations!! I'm a huge fan of your content and your new ride!!! I'm in the market for a hybrid style CC as well and love the Seahunter Floridian Contender sport and the Pathfinder as I do about 80/20 offshore/inshore fishing charters out of Sebastian, Florida.

good for you guys. love it. Been watching you guys for a long time (different youtube acct). While I miss the 39footer, this looks super nice! Again, CONGRATS!!!

Congrats on the new boat! We have a 2200 and love it - but ready for the 2700 for the same reasons you like the new 2400! Keep up the great videos.👊

I just got two of those same motors on my Intrepid back in July. The enhanced back up feature is my favorite, and they are pretty quiet and efficient.

Congratulations guys, love the new Pathfinder... expecting big things from y'all now with that big tower ...lol 😎

Thank you so much for the content. My wife and I look forward to your weekly posts. We learn so much. Question on the new boat ..... I know you two love going to the Bahamas, Are you confident with just the single engine to get you there safely? Merry Chirstmas!!!! And thanks again for all the content

Wow that's nice! LOTS of space on that one. For a Keys boat would you say 24' is about the ideal size or could you go a couple feet bigger? We always have extra people with us so comfortable space and seating is a must. Also - a head to me is a necessity. If you're out all day there's nothing worse than being the person who has to turn everyone around to find a restroom.

Congratulations on the new boat. Your right it will be a game changer. It looks amazing. Looking forward to your 2023 season i hope lots of success with Avail Gear and your fishing channel. Stay Safe and Happy Holidays.

Clay and Stephanie, you picked the best configuration for the upper Keys. I have spent many days in Islamorada on the many boats I have owned over the last 45 years. I now have a 24' (another brand) with a 300 Yamaha and It has been flawless over the last two years. I think you will find this combination a great balance for all your fishing and boating needs. The two Garmin's 1243's area great combination and get the power poles. love your You Tube Channel. Best of Luck

Congrats on the new boat. Looking forward to upcoming shows. You two are awesome.

Congratulations on the new rig!!! That is a beautiful ride guys. Looking fwd to all the episodes you’ll film on that. Be safe and be safe guys. 👍👍

Awesome looking looking boat & deck set up is 🔥 Looks like it only has a 15 deg deadrise ? Would’ve liked to see them go with something a little more steeper to fit the hybrid concept. 15 is pretty flat when running offshore

awesome boat guys! i’m so excited to see it in future videos🚤

Congrats! I love the real BOATER explanation... not just a salesman... you clearly have been on boats for years and know when an extra compartment can make a difference or not.

Congrats on the new boat. That is a beautiful boats I love pathfinder boats. Hopefully I can get one when I grow up!

Looks really functional for the size. I agree that is the design of the future. Way to set the standard. Looking forward to seeing the electronics. Congrats...

You're lucky to have your wife so dedicated and into the boatlife😊😊😊

You guys are awesome, such down home people. Enjoy watching you guys

Congrats guys!!!🎉🎉.. so happy for your brand new boat!!! ✅ … you deserved!!! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

That's a beautiful boat guy's I know you all will make some great memories. Again stay safe and have a blessed day. Aloha from Kansas

beautiful boat best of luck!

Congratulations you guys, what a forward thinking design of a boat. It looks amazing, and I’m looking forward to seeing how it’s finished out!🎉🎉👍🏻

Congratulations on the new boat… as awesome as your videos!!!

What a sweet boat!!

Congrats to both of you on the new sled! Super excited to see you guys share memories and fishing adventures.

Gorgeous boat! Love your channel. You're doing it right.

Y’all awesome choice! I can’t wait to see the finished product!! Keep doing what y’all are doing!!

Looks like a terrific boat for down there. Chasing tarpon in the back country then darting out to the reef and beyond in a day. Might be a fun video to test the boat. How many styles of keys fishing can you do in it / in a single trip. Enjoy!

What a great looking boat! I'm so happy for you guys, I look forward to all of the adventuring!!

My wife and I love your channel. We keep a boat in Marathon. Your videos help us to discover new fishing methods and areas to explore when we fly in to fish. It's nice to see a couple that are both passionate about fishing as my wife and I are.

It's so funny how Bay boats are like SUVs they stopped being true Bay boats a long time ago

Congrats on the new boat guys! That thing looks awesome! Great video!

Huge congratulations! Looking forward to watching you fill the icebox!

Hey guys, congrats on the new boat. I’ve been watching you guys for a few years now. I live in Naples… my wife and myself have been talking about doing a Bahamas run, I have a 30 foot robalo that I pretty much completely restored myself.. can you keep me posted next time you guys are doing a run I would like to join along for safety purposes as well as it would be cool to meet you guys!?!

Dude! That boat is badass! Love your videos and love the new boat. Thanks for the great info and for taking us along with you.

Congratulations on the Pathfinder, what an amazing boat. Thank you for continuing to share your adventures with us - you guys continue to impress us with the quality of your video production. Love our AVAL gear. We hope you have a great Christmas! All the best in 2023

Congratulations on the new boat. What a feeling that must be. I hope it leads to many hours of enjoyable times for the two of you, and hopefully the payments won't cause a divorce (humor).

Congratulations, you guys! Your boat is beautiful! I like boats, but have never specifically been a boat person. You two make me excited about boats. lol

Congrats on the boat. We recently sold our 24 hybrid bay boat (different brand). We did love the versatility. This brand did a different style tower with a sliding window in the top. I'll be curious what you think of the open top in a rain squall, whether it is a big deal or not

Congratulations on the new boat, perfect choice for your type of fishing and versatile. Been watching since the beginning, looking forward to your next video adding on new equipment and getting it set up for your next fishing videos.

I love your new boat. I hope you two enjoy it. Can't wait to see Stephanie driving it in her bikini soon.

Beautiful boat! Id say when Sea Born created one of the first real hybrid boats they nailed it and only a few manufacturers have been able to create their own take successfully. I'd say pathfinder might have figured it out as well! I love the set up congrats!

Congrats!!! If you are going to use locking hitches on a cleat, on a fixed dock, make sure you carry a sharp knife. You will never untie that line when the tide goes out...

Awesome! I’ve been waiting for this boat to come. Can’t wait for the new videos. Congrats and enjoy! You two deserve it. Love that boat.

Really Happy For Both Of You!!! Enjoy The New Boat!

Very nice boat! I recognized that spot you were coming thru at about 10:30 in the video... I rented a boat there at Tavernier to go out into the bay. I tried to find my way to Toilet Seat Cut but I was a little scared to venture off the directions the guy gave us. Did catch a bunch Mangrove Snapper that day and then anchored out for a little while on the ocean side for some relaxing water time! Good content yall!

Congratulations on your new boat. Be safe, have fun and continue to make good educational videos.

Congratulations on the new rig! It reminds me of the 1st gen Contender 25! Look forward to seeing the finished product!

This is like a hybrid version 2 compared to the Pathfinder 2500. Bay boat up front, offshore cockpit in the rear with them high gunnels

Awesome boat! I wouldn’t even consider that a bay boat. Can’t wait to see what you are replacing the contender with!

Congratulations you two on the brand new boat! Thanks for sharing the experience with us! Looking forward to all of the action to come!

Love this boat. lots of storage without sacrificing walk room. Stability looks spot on and judging from the wake, it looks as if it cuts the water effortlessly. The size is really manageable and I can see the option to have temporary shading erected. I also love the panel space on the dashboard. Man oh man!!!! its just a lovely boat.

There’s a few companies doing the hybrid/ open bay boat style. East cape is coming out with a 25 open available for order now I believe. Young boats is a small custom boat builder and I’ve seen people option their 24 gulf shores with an open layout. I love the hybrid category of boats and open floor plan. We’re buying a young 27 hybrid. Similar to your pathfinder buts it’s a little bigger has twins and drafts 16 inches. But it’ll still rock dual power poles, Minn Kota a tower. And JACKPLATES.

Congrats on the new boat! And Made 2 Order is always a must for us when we come down!

Awesome , is a perfect fit , you are the best content creators . Good luck with the new boat , would be nice to do a price break down once is all configured to your specs . Congratulations , much success to you both!!!

The style alone as far as the lines, the way it rides in the water and looks just sitting there is beautiful. Reminds me of the older Everglades boats except not overkill at the back with the low sides

Nice boat and you guys are living the good life on the water. Keep up with the great content.

Congrats on the sweet boat and look forward to seeing the future videos that will be coming out in it! You two stay safe and happy fishing.

Congratulations, but don't you think its kinda big for a bay boat? Its kinda in the middle off offshore bay. And you already have an offshore boat. What does it draw?

Amazing!!! 🤩🤩🤩 I have been waiting for this video. I wish I could have this boat. Maybe someday

Congratulations on your new vessel. I just love the format of your videos. I'm sitting in my office on a cold rainy afternoon in Tennessee. Your video has been a 20 minute vacation to a place I want to be. I don't know much about fishing, but am learning. I am a sailor and licensed master captain and one day am going to show up in your waters and have that same lunch. How much water do they have at their dock? I draw 5'6".

Congratulations!! Nice boat. You guys have a blessed life. Merry Christmas!!

Wonderful. I regret buying a 60" and felt that was probably what you had purchased. Check out Brian Kelley's video "Boat Names". My dad built it!

The distance does not matter. I need u. I want u. I love u stephi.
