Ladder & Props
Stainless Boarding Ladder
The 2005 TRS comes with the Swim/Dive Platform
mounted in the stern of the boat. This platform
provides for an easier and safer entry and exit from
the boat. To operate the platform simply lift the metal
ladder from the platform, extend the ladder to its full
length, and let the ladder fall into the water.
Props
Prop selection on your 2005 TRS is determined by your local
Pathfinder Dealer, but all props are based on
recommendations from Pathfinder Boat Company and Yamaha
Marine in order to give your boat maximum overall
performance. The needs of your prop will determine the prop
design and size that best fits your performance requirements.
For instance, a prop with a smaller pitch will increase speed
out of the hole (jumping onto plane) but will produce a
decreased overall speed compared to a prop with a larger pitch.
Four bladed props may increase overall speed or allow the boat
to run shallower, and some props can decrease cavitation at
high speeds. Your individual prop needs will determine the prop design and size that
best fits your performance requirements.
Always inspect the engine and prop prior to launching your boat with the engine off. Key
prop issues include tangled fishing line or other types of debris, cracked blades or fluid
leaking out of the seal. Look for fishing line tangled around the prop or lower unit seal.
Consult your Yamaha Owner’s Manual to address these issues.
