2000 Tracker V-16 Boats For Sale

The Tracker Super Guide V16 is a 16-foot aluminum deep-V hull fishing boat built for choppy freshwater, the kind of conditions found on large lakes and reservoirs. The V-shaped bow parts oncoming waves and lets the boat handle chop up to about three feet, so it carries well on big water like Lake Mead and Lake Moultrie where flatter-bottomed boats struggle. It has noticeably high sidewalls that keep spray and waves out, and it draws very little water—it floats in about a foot and can run in roughly half a foot with the motor tilted up. Compared with a flat-bottom Bass Tracker, it gives up some shallow-water flatness in exchange for a drier, more stable ride and room for two anglers to fish comfortably all day.

Power comes from a Mercury 40-horsepower four-stroke as the standard engine, with a 50-horsepower available as a factory option. The 40 planes the boat at around 24 to 25 mph and tops out near 25 to 27 mph; loaded with gear, that engine works harder, which is why some owners would order the larger powerplant. A tiller (T) version is offered, weighing roughly 150 pounds less than the steering-console model, which makes it towable behind a four-cylinder vehicle and frees up deck and sleeping space.

The stock fuel tank is a 6-gallon portable, and the most common upgrade is swapping it for a 12-gallon tank. On the smaller tank, a full day of running drained it quickly; with the 12-gallon and the engine held around 4,500 rpm, the boat can cover close to 100 miles on a single fill. A 16-hour day chasing boils at Lake Mead burned roughly 10 gallons.

Fishing rigging starts with a Minn Kota PowerDrive bow trolling motor rated at 42 pounds of thrust on a 12-volt system, controlled by a foot pedal, with an i-Pilot/co-pilot remote upgrade available. The boat carries two batteries—one cranking, one trolling—and ships with a basic fish finder that most owners replace with a Lowrance or Garmin unit running a Navionics map card. The console seats swivel for towing and fishing positions.

The layout centers on a deep front deck with storage and a built-in live well, plus drain plugs for both the live well and bilge. A Bimini top is offered, and the hull is stout enough to mount serious accessories: 10-foot Minn Kota Raptor power poles can be fitted to the transom, though the added weight (around 90 pounds at the stern) makes trim tabs worthwhile to keep the boat planing level. The interior is carpeted with some vinyl, and the carpet cleans up well after a day of catfishing.

For shoppers searching Tracker Super Guide V16 boats for sale, the boat is advertised around $16,595 before freight and prep (about $1,350) and fees, and trailers come standard with a surge braking system that helps lighter tow vehicles. A free limited lifetime warranty covers structural items like the hull, ribs and welds, with shorter coverage on wiring, plumbing, vinyl, the trolling motor and the fish finder. Buyers weighing one should budget for the larger fuel tank and a better fish finder, and consider the 50-horsepower engine if they routinely run big, open water.
