As long as it isn't antifreeze you are good.

If it is antifreeze, there are several small heater hoses that could cause a leak and there are hoses at the coolant reservoir bottom.

Good point, Dale....If it isn't colored (antifreeze) it ISN'T coming from your cooling system....It IS condensation.

The coolant tank is mid way pass side, it has a overflow if tank fills up. Was ovewflow tank full? Might be over heating.

Now we have confirmed it is antifreeze, do you know about the trapped air that the Prowler is known for? There is a process to bleed trapped air out of the cooling system.
If you don't get the air out it will overheat and push antifreeze out of the overflow tank.

After rereading your original post I almost guarantee you have air in your cooling system. This is a common problem on a Prowler.

Here is a link that tells how to bleed air out of the cooling system.
