The 2026 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 16 XL Select is a fishing-focused pontoon that combines classic design with modern updates. Built on an aluminum hull and powered by a single 50 hp Mercury Marine engine, this 18-foot boat accommodates up to seven passengers and delivers straightforward performance on the water.
The layout centers on fishing functionality and comfort. Two folding fishing seats position anglers in the shade beneath a standard 7-foot bimini top, while the driver console features its own rod holder for convenient access. The redesigned console includes a forward-facing seat, phone compartments, and four cupholders integrated throughout the boat. Storage has been expanded with clever backrest cut-outs that add three cubic feet of capacity.
The 2026 model represents a refresh of the original Bass Buggy line, introducing updated styling and a revised lounge design alongside the practical upgrades. The boat measures 18 feet 5 inches in length with an 8-foot beam, providing a stable platform sized for both fishing trips and relaxed cruising.
