Meet the Boat: 24' Pathfinder TRS

Fast, stable, and built to fish — the Recon Charters Pathfinder is a 24-foot bay boat that’s ideal for exploring the shallows of Key West’s backcountry. It’s large enough to handle choppy runs but nimble enough to chase fish around the flats. The open deck layout gives plenty of room to move around, and the shallow draft lets us get way back into the places the bigger boats can’t reach. This bay boat is your ideal ride for Key West fishing!

Multiple Bait Wells

Multiple live wells mean we’re ready to carry a full spread of bait — pinfish, pilchards, crabs, you name it. Whether we’re targeting tarpon on the move or working structure for snappers and jacks, having live bait onboard gives us the edge to fish more effectively and adapt to what the day brings.

Comfort & Function

This boat’s not just built for fishing — it’s built for a comfortable day on the water. Padded seating for four people, a smooth, dry ride, and tons of dry storage space mean you can bring what you need and ride easy while we cover water. The built-in T-top adds welcome shade from the Florida sun.
