Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18: BoatTEST Review

Reviewed by Jeff Hammond

Overview

The Bass Buggy 18 from SunTracker is a newly designed 19-foot pontoon boat tailored for fishing enthusiasts who also seek comfort and versatility. This compact and affordable model is equipped with a variety of standard features that cater to fishing, swimming, and recreational activities, making it a multifunctional vessel suitable for a full day on the water.

Exterior Design and Deck Layout

The Bass Buggy 18 features corrugated side panels and smoothly curved railings with rounded corners, enhancing both aesthetics and safety. The front gate includes a large lower opening designed to accommodate an optional trolling motor. Unique and thoughtfully designed drink and rod holders are integrated throughout the deck. The boat is outfitted with a wheelchair-accessible gate on the port side, secured with a double lock for safety. Overhead, a bimini top provides ample protection from sun and rain. The cockpit seating arrangement resembles a family cruiser style, featuring a large L-shaped bench with ample storage, including a concealed trash bin. A half swim platform is located aft, with the engine pod extending just beyond the deck.

Center Console and Helm Features

A standout feature of the Bass Buggy 18 is its center console, a rarity among fishing pontoons. The console includes a front bench with a live well integrated into its base. It is equipped with a low-profile tinted windshield and grab handles on the sides to assist during rough water conditions. Additional features include a push-on courtesy light and three vertical rod holders mounted on the console’s side. The helm seat is ingeniously designed as a carry-on cooler with a flip-flop seat back. The helm itself is straightforward, featuring basic steering, gauges, and lighted aircraft-style paddle switches. A sunglass tray and two drink holders are conveniently positioned on the dash, complemented by a Sirius-capable Jensen stereo with MP3 player. Storage space beneath the helm accommodates a soft-sided cooler or additional gear.

Fishing Amenities and Storage

Fishing functionality is enhanced with pedestal-mounted cushioned fishing chairs that provide comfort for extended periods of casting. The boat is pre-wired for a trolling motor, with a dedicated connector located in the corner of the deck. Behind the aft bench, there is an additional casting chair location and vertical rod storage. The battery for the trolling motor is stored under the aft seat, although the cranking battery is positioned exposed on top of the aft deck, which may be a consideration for some users. Corner pods are equipped with cup holders, hook organizers, and tool organizers, adding to the boat’s fishing-centric design.

Dimensions and Performance

Measuring 19 feet 8 inches in length overall with an 8 foot 1 inch beam, the Bass Buggy 18 weighs 1,390 pounds and carries a 30-gallon fuel tank. During testing on calm waters with minimal chop, the boat achieved a top speed of 20.7 miles per hour at 5,400 rpm powered by a 50 horsepower Mercury outboard engine. The optimal cruising speed was found to be approximately 16.8 miles per hour, delivering a fuel efficiency of about 5.15 miles per gallon, allowing for extended fishing, cruising, and recreational use on the lake.

Conclusion

The SunTracker Bass Buggy 18 introduces several innovative features uncommon in pontoon boats, such as the center console layout and specialized fishing amenities including corner pods with organizers and cup holders. Its blend of fishing functionality and family-friendly comfort makes it a versatile option for anglers seeking a compact, well-equipped pontoon. Overall, the Bass Buggy 18 offers a thoughtfully designed platform for fishing and leisure activities on the water.
