Research 2020 - Tracker Boats - Panfish 16

The classic interior layout of the PANFISH 16 makes it a favorite of those who value ease of operation and comfortable fishing. Two swiveling, folding seats plus a center bench seat—with a 14-gal. livewell beneath—offer comfortable casting, and the helm-forward design makes navigating woody coves and rocky shorelines a breeze.

Our exclusive VERSATRACK system rings the deck, a Lowrance fishfinder helps you see underwater, and a Minn Kota trolling motor moves you around quietly while you fish. And like every all-welded TRACKER, it's backed by the TRACKER PROMISE—the best factory warranty in aluminum boats.
