2025 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 16 XL Select
The affordable 2025 BASS BUGGY® 16 XL Select lets you get out on the water without breaking the bank. As the most compact pontoon in the SUN TRACKER® fishing pontoon lineup, the BASS BUGGY® 16 XL can be easily towed with just a crew of 1. However, its 16' deck is spacious enough to hold 7 passengers looking to cast lines on the lake.
Set up shop in 1 of the 2 removable and foldable forward fishing chairs, the console-mounted livewell that doubles as another seat, and the swiveling captain's chair. Stretch your legs on the L-shaped aft lounge during fishing breaks. The kids can dive into the water from the 3 gates and extended fore and aft platforms. An aft telescopic reboarding ladder makes getting back into the boat a breeze.
Use the 7' bimini top to get some shade while you fish. Enjoy your favorite tracks through the Bluetooth®-compatible AM/FM Wet Sounds® stereo with 2 upholstery speakers. Integrated rod holders, drink holders, and more keep everything you need for a great day of fishing close by.
The BASS BUGGY® 16 XL Select comes standard with a 20hp Mercury® ELPT FourStroke outboard motor and has a recommended maximum 50hp rating.
