Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 XP3: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The SunTracker Party Barge 22XP3 is a pontoon boat designed primarily for social enjoyment and recreational activities on the water. It offers spacious accommodations and thoughtful features aimed at maximizing comfort and convenience for up to 10 passengers. This model emphasizes accessibility, entertainment, and ease of handling, making it a versatile platform for gatherings and leisurely cruising.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The Party Barge 22XP3 features three access points to facilitate boarding: an 18-inch wide entry at the aft, a 24-inch bow entry, and a notably wide 32-inch port side entry suitable for wheelchair access. The railings stand at a standard height of 26 inches, ensuring safety without obstructing views. The aft door is uniquely angled to extend deck space near the reboarding ladder. The engine is mounted on a separate pod that also houses the fuel tank, with two side steps providing a secure area for engine maintenance and daily checks. A padded aft sun deck offers a comfortable spot to relax while remaining engaged with activities on the swim platform and in the water. Beneath this sun pad is a pop-up changing room, spacious enough for changing out of wet swimwear, which opens easily and secures with a latch. Additionally, lifting this section reveals a well-secured battery and extra storage space.
Seating and Entertainment Areas
Forward of the helm, the boat provides two primary gathering areas. To port, an L-shaped lounger includes rotocast molded storage compartments beneath each seat and a lockable aluminum-covered storage box with internal compartments. The helm console offers open storage space beneath, suitable for a cooler, though securing rails would be beneficial to prevent movement underway. Entertainment is supported by a Jensen AM-FM stereo system featuring MP3 connectivity, Bluetooth, and four directional speakers, allowing guests to enjoy music both onboard and while swimming off the stern. The helm itself is a single fiberglass module finished in an off-color to reduce glare, with a faux burl wood gauge panel housing three chrome-bezeled gauges. The hydraulic steering wheel is tilt-adjustable, and the engine control is mounted vertically. The captain's seat includes flip-up armrests and a pedestal base that allows swiveling to join conversations in the adjacent L-shaped seating. Further forward, two large couches face each other port and starboard, upholstered in UV-resistant vinyl with soft, multi-density foam cushions. A standard pedestal table can be positioned between these couches, creating an intimate social space. Storage compartments are located beneath all seating. The deck is covered with sculptured marine-grade carpet, with an optional vinyl cockpit flooring available. A color-matched 9-foot polyester BEMEDE top with LED courtesy lighting provides full sun protection.
Power and Performance
The Party Barge 22XP3 measures 22 feet 2 inches in length overall with a beam of 8 feet 6 inches. It has an empty weight of 2,840 pounds. During testing, with 20 gallons of fuel, two people aboard, and test equipment, the total weight was approximately 3,835 pounds. Powered by a 150-horsepower Mercury four-stroke engine driving a 15x15 inertia propeller, the boat achieved a top speed of 38.7 miles per hour at 5,600 rpm. At this speed, fuel consumption was 14.2 gallons per hour, yielding a range of 86 miles. The most efficient cruise speed was found at 3,000 rpm, producing 17.3 miles per hour while burning 3.85 gallons per hour. This allowed for an extended range of 141 miles with a 10% fuel reserve, equating to over eight hours of cruising. The boat planes quickly, reaching planing speed in 2.6 seconds, 20 mph in 4.7 seconds, and exceeding 30 mph in 8.6 seconds. Optimal fuel economy and ride comfort are achieved by trimming the bow up to a higher cruising attitude, which also contributes to a dry ride over waves. Handling characteristics include a stable, flat attitude during slow turns and a slight lean into performance turns. The helm response is precise, with a small turning radius consistent across speeds, and power adjustments near docks do not cause stern swing. When power is reduced, the boat settles back into a level position.
Conclusion
The SunTracker Party Barge 22XP3 successfully combines accessibility, comfort, and performance in a pontoon boat designed for social boating. Its multiple access points, spacious seating arrangements, and convenient features such as the pop-up changing room and ample storage enhance onboard enjoyment. The powertrain delivers strong acceleration, efficient cruising, and responsive handling, while the design maximizes usable space for up to ten passengers. Overall, this model presents a well-executed platform for entertaining and leisurely outings on the water.
