Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX For Sale

The Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX is an 18-foot pontoon boat built on two aluminum logs rather than a tritoon setup, aimed at anglers and families who want a stable fishing and cruising platform. It carries a rated capacity of eight people, around 1,200 pounds, and runs a vinyl rubber deck surface instead of carpet, which hoses off easily. Recent model years ship in indigo blue with elevated badging, and the deck is built over marine-grade gray plywood with aluminum plating partway up the underside, backed by a long warranty. Anyone shopping for a Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 for sale will find the layout geared toward fishing, with swivel seats, multiple live wells, and built-in rod storage.

Power on the standard build is a 75-horsepower four-stroke Mercury, which runs quiet and smooth and is fed by an inboard fuel cell rated around 31 to 32 gallons depending on model year — enough for a full weekend or longer between fill-ups. The boat can also be ordered or rigged with a 20-horsepower four-stroke Mercury for power-restricted lakes that cap horsepower, and that lighter setup pairs with a 38-gallon tank for very long range at low burn. Both engines use electric trim. The aluminum prop dings easily on rock, so a spare prop is worth keeping aboard.

At the helm the dash is kept compact and usable, with a tachometer and fuel gauge as the core instrumentation and switches for the horn, navigation and anchor lights, courtesy lights, and the aerator. There's a throttle and shift control with forward and reverse, a safety kill switch, a 12-volt port, and room on the dash to mount a fish finder if you add the popular fishing package, which includes a trolling motor and a depth finder/GPS unit such as a Humminbird Helix. The 2024 and later boats add a Wet Sounds Bluetooth stereo as standard equipment with speakers that carry over the engine note.

The deck layout puts two swivel fishing seats and a forward live well in the bow, with a dry storage box and a battery tray pre-wired for a separate trolling motor on the starboard side. A trolling motor mounts at the bow, and the bow gate is cut so the motor fits up underneath it. Amidships is an L-shaped lounge couch with storage underneath and cup holders in the backrest. Aft you get a single rear fishing seat, a second seat behind the captain's chair, a rear live well, the cranking battery, and an exit gate. There are corner cleats in the bow and stern, a four-step stainless steel boarding ladder that drops well into the water, and a Bimini top roughly nine feet long that folds up and stows under its own cover.

The boat is sold on a matching Sun Tracker single-axle trailer, available as galvanized steel with a swing-up jack, leaf-spring axle, grease-fitting hubs, a transom saver, and a full-size spare; surge brakes with a seven-pin connector are an option, and brakeless versions use a four-way connector. When weighing a Sun Tracker Bass Buggy 18 DLX, check the trailer fittings and inspect for early surface rust at the axle, and budget for accessories: owners commonly add a Sun Tracker cover, replacement or upgraded seats, mesh storage organizers for the bow cubbies, and rail-mounted gear like a grill or fillet table. For a first boat or a fishing-focused pontoon, it covers the essentials with quiet four-stroke power and a fishing-ready deck.
