The 2026 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 16 XL Select is an 18-foot aluminum fishing pontoon powered by a single 50-horsepower Mercury Marine engine. Built on the heritage of the original fishing pontoon design, this model combines traditional fishing capability with a refreshed layout and expanded feature set.
The boat accommodates seven passengers and centers its design around fishing comfort and convenience. Two folding fishing seats allow anglers to cast from the shade of a standard 7-foot bimini top. The driver console includes a dedicated rod holder and is positioned to give a clear view across the water. Additional seating and lounging areas are distributed throughout the deck, with new backrest cutouts that create three extra cubic feet of storage space.
Smart details throughout the layout enhance usability on the water. Phone compartments keep devices secure, while four cupholders provide convenient beverage storage. The redesigned console and lounge configurations reflect a thoughtful approach to pontoon fishing, balancing open deck space with protected seating and shade options.
