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. This seven-passenger boat carries the lineage of the original Bass Buggy, the first fishing pontoon ever made, reimagined with updated styling and expanded functionality.
The layout centers on a fully appointed driver console with an integrated rod holder, paired with two folding fishing seats positioned under a standard 7-foot bimini top for shade. A third seat sits forward of the console, while a lounge completes the seating arrangement. Storage has been increased by three cubic feet through redesigned backrest cutouts, and the boat includes phone compartments and four cupholders distributed throughout the deck.
At 18 feet 5 inches long with an 8-foot beam, the Bass Buggy 16 XL Select delivers a stable platform for anglers and passengers alike.
