2022 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX Fishing Pontoon w/ Mercury 60 HP - FULL FISHING SETUP!
$28,990.00
Only 85.6 Hours • Mercury 60 HP FourStroke • Minn Kota PowerDrive Trolling Motor • Lowrance HOOK² Fish Finder • Dual Aerated Livewells • Dedicated Fishing Stations • Full Cover • 9' Bimini Top • Matching Sun Tracker Trailer Included
If you're looking for a pontoon that can actually fish, not simply a cruising pontoon with a couple of rod holders added to it, this 2022 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX is exactly the type of setup you want.
The Bass Buggy was designed from the beginning around anglers, combining the stability and passenger space of a pontoon with dedicated bow and stern fishing areas, pedestal fishing seats, dual aerated livewells, rod storage, and an open deck layout. This particular boat takes that fishing-focused platform even further with a Minn Kota PowerDrive bow trolling motor and Lowrance HOOK² fish finder already installed.
Power comes from a Mercury 60 HP FourStroke with only 85.6 hours, giving you a great combination of quiet operation, efficiency, and recreational cruising power.
When the fishing is done, this Bass Buggy easily transitions into a family pontoon with its L-shaped lounge, Kicker marine audio, large 9' Bimini top, rear boarding ladder, and seating capacity for up to 8 people.
Add the full boat cover and matching Sun Tracker pontoon trailer, and you've got a complete fishing package that's ready for the lake.
Only 85.6 Hours!
One of the biggest highlights of this 2022 Bass Buggy is the low use.
The Mercury 60 HP FourStroke has only 85.6 hours, making this an especially attractive option for someone looking for a newer pre-owned fishing pontoon without stepping all the way up to the cost of buying new.
Mercury Power:
✔ Mercury 60 HP FourStroke
✔ Only 85.6 Hours
✔ Electric Start
✔ Power Trim
✔ Quiet Four-Stroke Operation
✔ Excellent Fishing & Cruising Setup
✔ Easy Outboard Access
For an 18 DLX, the 60 HP gives you a nice balance between the slower base-power configurations and the boat's maximum 75 HP rating.
A Pontoon Designed Around Fishing
This is where the Bass Buggy separates itself from a conventional pontoon.
Instead of filling nearly every inch of the deck with lounge furniture, SUN TRACKER created dedicated fishing areas at both ends of the boat, allowing multiple anglers to spread out and fish comfortably.
Fishing Layout:
✔ Dedicated Bow Fishing Area
✔ Dedicated Stern Fishing Area
✔ Multiple Pedestal Fishing Positions
✔ Removable Fishing Chairs
✔ Large Open Casting Areas
✔ Built-In Rod Storage & Holders
✔ Dual Aerated Livewells
✔ Bow-Mounted Trolling Motor
✔ Lowrance Fish Finder
✔ Fishing-Focused Storage
Whether you're casting shorelines, working weed edges, jigging over structure, or simply taking the kids out for panfish, the layout gives you room to actually move around and fish.
Minn Kota PowerDrive Trolling Motor
Mounted directly at the bow is a Minn Kota PowerDrive electric trolling motor, one of the most important upgrades on this boat.
Rather than relying solely on the Mercury outboard for positioning, you can quietly work productive water from the front fishing deck.
It's ideal for working:
• Weed Lines
• Shorelines
• Drop-Offs
• Docks
• Points
• Structure
• Slow Presentations
• Shallow Fishing Areas
For anglers who want to actively work an area rather than simply cruise somewhere and anchor, the PowerDrive dramatically increases what this pontoon can do.
Lowrance HOOK² Fish Finder
At the helm is a Lowrance HOOK² fish finder, positioned where it's easy for the captain to monitor while operating the boat.
Combined with the Minn Kota trolling motor, you've got the core electronics needed to locate productive water and then efficiently fish it.
Instead of buying a bare pontoon and immediately shopping for electronics and trolling equipment, this Bass Buggy already has both installed.
Dual Aerated Livewells
SUN TRACKER didn't stop at adding fishing seats.
The Bass Buggy 18 DLX incorporates two dedicated aerated livewells, providing useful capacity for bait or your catch.
The setup includes a 9-gallon forward-console aerated livewell and an 8-gallon aft aerated livewell.
Livewell Setup:
✔ 9-Gallon Forward Aerated Livewell
✔ 8-Gallon Aft Aerated Livewell
✔ Fishing Stations at Both Ends
✔ Convenient Access While Fishing
✔ Integrated Fishing-Oriented Storage
Having a livewell at both ends further reinforces that this isn't a recreational pontoon pretending to be a fishing boat - the fishing functionality is built directly into the layout.
Built-In Rod Storage & Fishing Stations
Anyone who has tried fishing from a conventional pontoon knows how quickly rods, nets, tackle boxes, and other equipment can clutter the deck.
The Bass Buggy incorporates dedicated rod storage and fishing stations to help keep equipment organized and accessible.
With open fishing areas at both ends, pedestal seating, livewells, rod storage, and dedicated fishing functionality, multiple anglers can spread out instead of constantly working around the lounge furniture.
20-Foot Overall Length - Easy to Own
At approximately 20 feet overall, the Bass Buggy 18 DLX hits a great middle ground.
It's large enough to give you genuine pontoon space and stability without becoming an oversized package that's intimidating to tow, launch, dock, or store.
Factory Dimensions & Capacities:
✔ 20' Overall Length
✔ 17'8" Deck Length
✔ 8'2" Deck Width
✔ 18'4" Pontoon Logs
✔ 24" Diameter Pontoon Logs
✔ Up to 8-Person Capacity
✔ 1,200-Lb. Maximum Person Weight
✔ 32.1-Gallon Fuel Capacity
✔ 75 HP Maximum Rating
For someone who plans on traveling between different Wisconsin lakes, that manageable size is a major advantage.
Comfortable L-Shaped Lounge
Despite its fishing focus, the Bass Buggy doesn't sacrifice the biggest reason people love pontoons in the first place: comfort.
The main passenger area features a large L-shaped lounge, giving family and friends a comfortable place to relax while cruising or while the anglers are working the fishing decks.
Interior Features:
✔ Large L-Shaped Lounge
✔ Tan & Brown Marine Upholstery
✔ Under-Seat Storage
✔ Swiveling Captain's Chair
✔ Removable Pedestal Fishing Chairs
✔ Woven Marine Flooring
✔ Multiple Cup Holders
✔ Integrated Storage
✔ Marine Speakers
✔ Open, Easy-to-Navigate Floorplan
It's this combination that makes the Bass Buggy such an appealing alternative to a conventional aluminum fishing boat.
You can still bring the family along without giving up the equipment needed to fish.
Seating for Up to 8
The 18 DLX is rated for up to 8 passengers, giving you enough capacity for family lake days while retaining dedicated fishing space.
That makes this boat particularly versatile for someone who doesn't want to own both a fishing boat and a separate family pontoon.
Fish with a couple of buddies Saturday morning.
Take the family cruising Saturday afternoon.
Same boat.
Kicker Marine Audio
When it's time to put the rods away, the Kicker marine audio system gives the Bass Buggy another recreational feature.
With the lounge seating, stereo, Bimini, and open pontoon layout, the boat transitions easily from a fishing platform into a comfortable afternoon cruiser.
Large 9' QuickLift Bimini Top
A large 9-foot QuickLift Bimini top provides valuable shade over the primary passenger area.
That's particularly important on a fishing boat where you may be spending six, eight, or more hours on the water.
Open it up when you want protection from the summer sun and fold it down when you want the deck completely open.
Rear Boarding Ladder
A rear boarding platform and 4-step folding boarding ladder with grab rails make getting back aboard easy when swimming.
This gives the boat another dimension beyond fishing.
When the bite slows down, anchor somewhere, jump in, swim for a while, fire up the Kicker stereo, and enjoy the afternoon.
Full Boat Cover Included
A full boat cover is included, helping protect the seating, flooring, helm, electronics, and interior when the boat isn't being used.
That's another valuable accessory you won't need to immediately purchase after bringing the boat home.
Matching Sun Tracker Trailer Included
Even better, this package includes the matching Sun Tracker pontoon trailer.
Trailer Features:
✔ Sun Tracker Pontoon Trailer
✔ Single-Axle Configuration
✔ Pontoon Bunk Setup
✔ Spare Tire
✔ Bow Access/Boarding Ladder
✔ Winch Stand
✔ Sun Tracker Graphics
✔ Trailer Lighting
✔ Included in the $28,990 Price
Having the trailer opens up an entirely different style of ownership.
Instead of being tied to one lake, you can take this Bass Buggy wherever the fish are biting.
Built for Wisconsin Fishing
For Wisconsin anglers, the Bass Buggy makes a ton of sense.
One weekend you might be chasing bass around weed lines. The next you're jigging for walleye. Another weekend you're taking the kids after bluegill and crappie.
And sometimes you don't want to fish at all - you just want to cruise, swim, or spend the afternoon relaxing.
That's where this boat excels.
It's set up for:
• Walleye
• Bass
• Northern Pike
• Musky
• Crappie
• Perch
• Bluegill & Panfish
• Casting
• Jigging
• Slow Trolling
• Family Cruising
• Swimming
• Sandbar Days
Why This Bass Buggy Stands Out
This isn't a stripped-down pontoon that still needs thousands of dollars worth of fishing equipment.
It's already equipped with the major components you're likely to want:
✔ 2022 Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX
✔ Mercury 60 HP FourStroke
✔ Only 85.6 Hours
✔ Minn Kota PowerDrive Trolling Motor
✔ Lowrance HOOK² Fish Finder
✔ Dual Aerated Livewells
✔ Dedicated Bow Fishing Deck
✔ Dedicated Stern Fishing Area
✔ Multiple Pedestal Fishing Seats
✔ Built-In Rod Storage & Holders
✔ 20' Overall Length
✔ 8'2" Deck Width
✔ 8-Person Capacity
✔ 32.1-Gallon Fuel Capacity
✔ Kicker Marine Audio
✔ 9' QuickLift Bimini Top
✔ L-Shaped Lounge Seating
✔ Woven Marine Flooring
✔ Rear Boarding Ladder
✔ Full Boat Cover Included
✔ Matching Sun Tracker Trailer Included
Shopping for a Fishing Pontoon?
If you're searching for a Sun Tracker Bass Buggy, Lowe Ultra Fish, Starcraft fishing pontoon, Sylvan fishing pontoon, Bennington fishing pontoon, Crest fishing pontoon, Godfrey fishing pontoon, or other fishing-oriented pontoon, this 2022 Bass Buggy should absolutely be on your list.

That's where the Bass Buggy offers a compelling alternative.
You get pontoon stability and seating with genuine fishing equipment already integrated into the boat.

Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 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.
