Run a Pathfinder? Stand on a helm pad cut for it.
Already know the size you want? Enter it and we'll cut it. Not sure? Tell us your Pathfinder, bay boat or hybrid, and we'll size the pad to your helm. Either way, you approve the drawing before we cut, and it ships from our Prospect, CT shop.
Design Your Pathfinder Helm Pad →

Real Pathfinder helm pads and a matching fish ruler, CNC-cut and engraved in our Prospect, CT shop.
Your size or your Pathfinder: we cut to either
Most owners already know the footprint they want at the wheel. Put your numbers in the studio, up to 65″ × 28″, and we cut to them exactly.
Rather fit the helm itself? Start with your boat. Pathfinder builds bay boats and hybrids, and no two helm stations share the same footprint. We cut around the curves, hatches and throttle cutouts, with no trimming and no gaps. Add the Pathfinder logo, your boat's name, or both, engraved right into the foam.
Built for the helm you stand at every trip
Stand longer, hurt less
16mm dual-density PE/EVA foam takes the pounding off your knees and back on the long run to the fishing grounds. Want it firmer or thinner? Choose 6, 12, 16 or 20mm.
Grip when it's soaked
Non-slip traction that holds when spray, rain and fish slime hit the helm.
The Pathfinder logo, engraved
Add the Pathfinder mark, your boat's name or both, cut right into the foam. It won't peel, fade or wash off.
Your colors, your pattern
Pick your top and bottom colors from the color guide, then finish with teak lines or a clean perimeter line.
Stick it or remove it
Genuine 3M marine-grade adhesive for a permanent install, or removable rubber backing if you want to take it with you.
Made in Connecticut
Every pad is CNC-cut to order in our Prospect, CT shop and shipped nationwide.
