Props
Prop selection on your 2300 HPS 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.
Fuel System
Fuel System
Your Pathfinder 2300 HPS comes with a 61-gallon
aluminum fuel cell stationed midship between the
stringers just below and in front of the console. The fuel
fill receptacle is on the port gunwale forward of the
console. There's also a recessed fuel overflow vent on the
port side of the boat just below the fuel receptacle.
We regularly pressure test each fuel system when it is
initially received at the factory and until it leaves the factory as a component on a new
boat. Should you experience any fuel related problems or suspect problems with the fuel
system, immediately take your boat to your local Pathfinder dealer.
