Research 2013 - Tracker Boats - Targa V-18 Combo

Seating for six. Fishing and fun for all!

The TRACKER Targa V-18 Combo is a family favorite.

Movable fishing seats and two aft jump seats let six ride comfortably in the windshield-protected cockpit. Family-focused accessories include a ski tow pylon, boarding platform, in-floor gear storage, a stereo with an MP3 jack and a roomy bow set up with cushions and backrests for kicking back.

New for 2013: we've added interior courtesy lights and a full set of single-function gauges—including a GPS-driven speedometer.

For fishing, you'll find a powerful Minn Kota trolling motor, Lowrance Mark-5x fishfinder, onboard battery charger and two livewells.

It's a big water aluminum fishing boat one minute, a spirited family runabout the next!
