Research 2021 - Sun Tracker - Party Barge 18 DLX

To-do lists? No thanks. Traffic jams? Nope. Chores? Not a chance. Simply put, the PARTY BARGE 18 DLX is a great way for families to leave everyday hassles on land to just spend quality time together on the water.

Young kids? No problem. All the gates open inward for maximum safety, and the fencing is tall enough to keep little wanderers inside the playpen. Inside that playpen, you'll find three lounge seats, all with spacious, rotomolded storage below—plenty of room for water toys, safety equipment and snacks. Speaking of snacks, there's room for an optional cooler under the console.

Of course, you won't want to spend the whole day onboard (even though it might be tempting to just relax under the Bimini all the time). So, the PARTY BARGE 18 DLX also includes a full-width swim platform and a reboarding ladder—perfect for repeat cannonballs and dives.
