Owner’s Manual

Dear New Boat Owner,

Welcome to the Pathfinder Family!

Thank you for choosing a Pathfinder boat to transport you to

your angling dreams. We believe the Pathfinder 2200 Tournament

Edition is the best all-purpose boat on the market, and we’re sure

that you’ll be completely satisfied with the unmatched performance,

quality and fishability of your new boat.

We value your input, not just at the time of the sale, but

throughout the entire boat ownership period, and we’ve taken

steps to allow you to share that information. Over the next year or

so, you will receive at least two questionnaires to fill out and return.

Be sure to visit our website www.pathfinderboats.com to find

information on company events like our Owner’s Tournaments and

Corporate Calendar. You’ll find a wealth of information on our

Forum, where you can ask questions, get answers and join other

Pathfinder owners to discuss all applications of your boat. We’re

proud to have you as a member of the Pathfinder family!

Tight lines and screaming drags!

F U E L -W A T E R SE P A R A T O R & D R A I N P L U G Garboard Drain Plug The garboard drain plug is the small metal plug located at the lowest point on the hull, at the bottom of the transom right above the keel. The drain has been designed to so that it can be loosened by hand while the hull is out of the water for draining. This allows the plug to stay in contact with the surrounding frame so you’ll never misplace or lose it.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! 9 SYST EM S Ball Valves Ball valves can be used to serve several purposes. They allow seawater to enter the boat, in the case of livewells, and they also act as a safeguard to stop water from entering in case of part failure, and function as an emergency shutoff. To tell which position a ball valve is in, open or closed, look at the valve and determine the direction of flow.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! 10 B I L GE Bilge The bilge of your Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition should always be checked after launch. A small amount of water in the bilge is normal for this area of the boat. Large amounts of water or any signs of fuel or oil require immediate attention. Never pump fuel or oil overboard while your boat is in the water. Large quantities of water in the bilge may be an indication of a leak or that your bilge pump is jammed, broken or has blown a 5 amp fuse.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! J AC K PL A TE & P ROP S Props Prop selection on your Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition is determined by your local Pathfinder dealer but based on recommendations made by Pathfinder Boat Company and Yamaha Marine to give your boat the maximum overall performance. Different prop designs may improve performance or can be tailored to enhance specifics of boat and motor performance.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! F U E L SY ST E M FUEL SYSTEM Your Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition comes with a 80-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.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! 13 SEL F -B AI L I NG COCKPI T & L I VEW EL L SYST EM Self Bailing Cockpit The cockpit on your Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition is designed to be self-bailing, so that all water that comes into the cockpit can immediately flush out the back of the boat. This avoids holding standing water and allows the boat to drain at all times, including while docked. Water drains out of the cockpit through the two aft cockpit drains located at each of the back corners of the cockpit.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! FEATURES Livewells The Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition is a livebait friendly boat and comes with three standard livewells. With one 15gallon livewell at the bow of the boat and two 40-gallon livewells at the stern (see diagram on page 7) this boat is capable of handling massive amounts of bait, or even keeping game fish alive for periods of time.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! 15 W I R I NG Wiring A wiring diagram of your Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition has been included to help troubleshoot any electrical problems or add additional electronics or electrical connections. We recommend you use a trained marine electrician for all electrical issues. Inside the console on the starboard side is the ground terminal and the breaker pannel is located in the glove box.
PAGE 16
M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! TRIM TABS Trim Tabs Trim tabs are a standard item on the Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition. We use external 9 X 12-inch Lenco electric trim tabs which can enhance the boat’s performance. Because the tabs are electric, there is no hydraulic trim tab pump, thus eliminating the possibility for fluid leaks as with other trim tab manufacturers.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! FEATURES Forward Console Storage The forward console cushion doubles as a removable door providing a huge access opening to the inside of the console and the back of the helm. Note the tackle drawer on the backside of the door designed to accommodate three flat tackle trays or other gear that you want to keep at the ready. To top it off, it’s lockable.

The top 50 amp breaker is the main power for the boat, which feeds the switch panel on the helm and it's associated accessories along with engine power. The 7 amp breaker below that is for the bilge and the remaining two 15 amp breakers are for adding additional accessories.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! 19 FEATURES Salt Water Washdown Salt-water washdown is an option on the 2200 Tournament Edition. The pump is located in the bilge forward of the livewell pump and is accessible through the splashwell hatch or the aft port hatch. To operate, hook a hose to the raw water receptacle in the aft section of the rod locker. Flip the switch labeled “Saltwater”. The pump will pressurize the system with raw water.

M o d e l Y e a r 2 0 1 2! ! POW ER POL E Power Poles Power Poles come as an option with the Pathfinder 2200 Tournament Edition and give the boat operator the ability to quickly and quietly stop the boat while in shallow water. Whether you want to enjoy a view, or if you’ve stumbled upon a group of tailing redfish the power pole will stop the boat quickly and easily. Please refer to the Power Pole owner’s manual for operational and mechanical information.
