The 2026 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 16 XL Select is an 18-foot aluminum pontoon built for fishing. Powered by a single 50-horsepower Mercury Marine engine, it seats seven passengers and combines the open-water capability of a pontoon with dedicated fishing amenities. The boat features a redesigned console and lounge layout alongside a standard 7-foot bimini top for shade while fishing.
The layout centers on fishing practicality. Two folding fishing seats allow casting from protected areas, while the driver console includes a dedicated rod holder and phone compartments. Storage has been increased through backrest cutouts that add three cubic feet of dedicated space. Four cupholders and an additional seat forward of the driver console round out the deck configuration.
The 16 XL Select reflects a modern rethink of the original Bass Buggy fishing pontoon concept, bringing updated styling and feature integration to the platform's time-tested hull design.
