Overview
The SunTracker SportFish 22 XP3 is a versatile pontoon boat designed to meet the needs of boaters who desire ample space for entertaining, water sports, and dedicated fishing areas. It effectively combines comfort and functionality, offering a layout that separates the party atmosphere at the front from the fishing activities at the rear.
Fishing Features and Exterior Design
The rear section of the SportFish 22 XP3 is specifically outfitted for fishing. It includes two bucket seats with flip-back cushions, a 16-gallon livewell on the port side with a removable bait bucket on the starboard side, and an engine crank battery compartment. Rod holders and drink holders are conveniently placed on both sides, with vertical rod storage and a tool holder on the port side. The starboard side offers additional lockable rod storage capable of accommodating rods up to seven feet six inches long. The bow is pre-wired for a trolling motor, with the battery stored beneath the seat. The boat’s fencing consists of one and a quarter inch rails with grooves underneath for a rail lock system that simplifies mooring cover attachment. The panels come in two color options: caribou or black. The foredeck features marine-grade plywood topped with vinyl decking, although an upgraded woven vinyl option is available for improved slip resistance. The foredeck measures 18 inches from front to rear and includes navigation lights and six-inch cleats positioned fore and aft.
Comfort and Interior Living Spaces
The front of the boat is designed for socializing and comfort. Entry is through a 19-inch wide angled entryway, with an additional 31-inch wide gate at the bow that allows for handicapped accessibility. The port side features L-shaped seating around a kidney-shaped pedestal table, with roto-molded seats equipped with drink holders and ample storage underneath. A notable feature is the Stow-More seat storage system, which increases storage capacity by 50%, including lockable compartments beneath the seats. The bow offers opposing seating with a loveseat on the port side and a reclining longer couch on the starboard side, both incorporating the Stow-More storage system. Protection from the elements is provided by a color-keyed bimini top that covers nine feet of area and is deployed via a convenient one-touch system. Additionally, a fold-away changing room is located at the front of the seating area.
Helm and Operational Features
The helm area is designed with functionality and comfort in mind. The captain’s seat slides fore and aft, swivels, and features flip-up armrests along with plush cushioning. The control panel is minimalist yet functional, including two multifunction gauges flanking a storage space that can be outfitted with a Lowrance Hook 5 Pro fishfinder as part of the optional fish package. Rocker switches are positioned on either side of the panel, with a 12-volt accessory plug and USB/MP3 inputs conveniently located near the Jensen stereo system that powers four speakers throughout the boat. The ignition is placed out of the knee strike zone, and the hydraulic steering is mounted on a tilt base. Engine controls are angled within easy reach of the captain’s seat, which also benefits from a footrest and nearby cooler storage.
Power and Performance
The SunTracker SportFish 22 XP3 is rated for outboard engines ranging from 115 to 200 horsepower, with the 150 horsepower four-stroke Mercury engine being the most popular choice and the powerplant used during testing. The boat measures 24 feet 2 inches in length overall with a beam of 8 feet 6 inches. The test weight, including 80% fuel and two passengers, was approximately 5,916 pounds. Equipped with a 150 horsepower Mercury four-stroke engine turning a 15.6 by 13 pitch inertia propeller, the boat achieved a top speed of 35.1 miles per hour at 6,000 RPM. Cruising speed was recorded at 14.3 miles per hour at 3,000 RPM, with a fuel burn of 3.3 gallons per hour, translating to a range of 205 miles while maintaining a 10% fuel reserve from the 52-gallon tank. Acceleration to 20 miles per hour took 5.5 seconds, and reaching 30 miles per hour required 9.8 seconds. The boat’s 26-inch diameter XP3 high-performance multi-chambered pontoons feature welded lifting strakes, wave deflectors, and internal bracing for enhanced strength and handling. The hull trims to a roughly five-degree bow-high attitude for optimal performance and handles well in calm conditions, showing smooth transitions over wakes without hull slap. Steering response is precise, with the boat remaining level in turns. Minor propeller ventilation was corrected by adjusting the trim.
Conclusion
The SunTracker SportFish 22 XP3 successfully integrates the comfort and social features expected of a pontoon boat with specialized fishing amenities and strong performance characteristics. Its thoughtful design accommodates both recreational and fishing activities, making it a well-rounded choice for pontoon boaters seeking versatility and reliable handling. The combination of spacious seating, ample storage, and efficient powertrain delivers a balanced boating experience.
