The Sun Tracker 18 DLX delivers the laid-back pontoon experience boaters love in a manageable package. Its open deck layout provides plenty of room to relax, move around, and spend time with family and friends. Whether you're cruising the shoreline, anchoring up for an afternoon swim, enjoying a sunset ride, or casting a line at your favorite fishing spot, this pontoon offers the versatility to do a little bit of everything.
For anglers, the 18 DLX provides a stable platform with ample room to fish comfortably throughout the boat.

When the rods are put away, the same layout easily transitions into a comfortable recreational boat for cruising and relaxing.
One of the biggest advantages of an 18-foot pontoon is its ease of ownership. Compared with larger pontoons, the Sun Tracker 18 DLX is easier to trailer, launch, maneuver, store, and maintain while still providing the comfort and stability pontoon buyers are looking for. That makes it a great choice for first-time boat owners, couples, smaller families, or experienced boaters who simply want a straightforward boat for enjoying the water.

Sun Tracker 18 dlx: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The SunTracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX is a fishing pontoon boat designed with input from boaters to enhance the fishing experience. It features a completely new deck layout that includes three fishing chairs, a redesigned console, and two live wells, making it well-equipped for both day and night fishing excursions.
Dimensions and Specifications
The Bass Buggy 18 DLX measures 20 feet in overall length with an 8-foot beam and weighs 1,375 pounds. Its two pontoons are 18 feet 4 inches long with a diameter of 24 inches. The boat carries 25 gallons of fuel and is rated for a maximum engine power of 75 horsepower. The test model was powered by a 40 horsepower Mercury EFI four-stroke engine paired with a 14 by 9 aluminum propeller.
Performance and Handling
During testing, the Bass Buggy 18 DLX achieved a top speed of 16.8 miles per hour at 5,800 rpm while consuming 3.8 gallons of fuel per hour, resulting in an average range of 139 statute miles. While not built for speed, the boat excels in stability and maneuverability, offering a smooth and enjoyable driving experience. The best cruising speed is variable, with fuel economy and range improving at slower speeds.
Exterior Features and Fishing Amenities
The bow area is equipped with port and starboard rod holders, drink and tool holders mounted on the fence, and an inward-opening gate. A 55-pound thrust MotorGuide trolling motor with a wireless remote foot pedal is bow-mounted, allowing precise maneuvering. Two folding pedestal-mounted and removable fishing seats are positioned to port and starboard, with an additional vertical rod holder on the starboard side. A plush forward seat with a backrest and molded grab handles sits in front of the console, beneath which is the forward live well with a shutoff valve.
Helm and Console Design
The helm features a roto-molded console with a simulated wood panel housing two gauges and a 12-volt outlet. The large steering wheel has a thick rubber grip, and the throttle is ergonomically positioned for both seated and standing operation. The premium helm seat offers fore and aft adjustment and swivels 360 degrees, though it lacks vertical adjustment. The design of the console resembles a center console fishbowl, providing excellent visibility and a fun driving experience.
Aft Deck and Additional Features
The aft deck includes an L-shaped seating area to port with ample storage beneath the cushions. At the stern, a third folding fishing seat is accompanied by vertical rod holders. The aft live well doubles as a bait station with a cover that serves as a cutting surface and additional storage. An inward-opening aft gate with a clip and positive lock secures the area, while a substantial swim ladder with built-in grab handles and fold-down lower steps facilitates water access. The engine mount is a newly engineered, all-welded solid aluminum pod extended to accommodate the fuel tank.
Conclusion
The SunTracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX is a stable, comfortable, and spacious pontoon fishing boat that offers more room than many other fishing boats in its size range. Its thoughtful design, including the elevated pontoon platform and well-arranged fishing amenities, makes it a practical and enjoyable rig for anglers. Overall, it delivers a smooth ride and functional layout that meets the needs of fishing enthusiasts.
