Hey Guys, this is a small review of the 2024 Sun Tracker Party Barge 22 DLX . I purchased this @CookevilleRVandMarine
Well if you bought a sun tracker with trailer you better change the bunks because they rot out because they use crap wood for the bunks and it will leave you stranded. Mine rotted after 2 years ans I couldnt load the boat i was stuck at the ramp for hours. Bass pro soid oh well theyre warranty is just 1 year. You would figure they build boats and they should know pine boards rot in water. And the flooring they use gets moldy and keeps coming back everytime I try to clean it and that part is out in the open and gets plenty of air. If I knew the materials they use I would not have bought the boat. BEWARE
Thanks for the video! I’m also going to be ordering my boat soon can’t wait. Can you do a follow up video on the pros and cons of ownership after the first year?
Just bought the same boat . I love it . What oil pressure do you normally run along with water pressure ? Ive been at 55psi on oil an 20psi on water. At full throttle . Top speed was 32mph at 5300 rpm .... whats your top end ?
Where did you get the neoprene strips at the motor mount?
Hi can you please show how you wired the power cables?
How did you power it? It seems like the accessories panel is behind the wall underneath? Did you have to open the wall? Thanks.
I just came to the same conclusion as you for mounting the fish finder on my '24 party barge 22DLX. I wonder if you could show where you mounted the transducer? I beach the boat with the back facing the beach and it sometimes bounces on the river bottom. I know the transducer goes on the port side bracket attached to the pontoon log, but how high/low on the bracket?... Thanks!
Man, I put the turbo swing on mine and those brackets were hanging out on the transom there on the left and the right and that water was coming down. It would catch him and zip it straight up, drenching the motor and start coming into the back where the person set with the backwash from flickering back up, so I had to take it off
Hello. I bought a 24 sportfish 20' that has the new dash. Is there a way to turn the screen off without turning everything else off / running lights. I know you can dim it but its still blinding at night.

does the front end "slap" or "porpoise"?
cool vid. im fixin to order exact same model...
Awesome Videos.. separate subject... I'm buying a 18 dlx.. the salesman says the Flare screen shows water depth... i don't see that on any manual. Also, did your come with the Transducer bracket already installed? Thanks!!!
The water pressure gauge only works for 150hp and higher motors My 90HP on my 2024 does not read WP
Thank you I was wondering that. I have a 24 with a 90 and reads zero
I wonder how reliable that screen is
I bought the 2023 fishing barge 20dlx! Absolutely love mine!!! People down play sun tracker pontoons but they really are quality boats with really good warranties. Just wished the trailer warranty was more than a year. My wife backed mine in the water a few days ago and something under the water broke the passenger side light, called about to see if warranty would cover and they said if the owner caused the damage then no. So im out of pocket for a new light. The floor is woven vinyl btw.. really wished they would have upgraded to new helm in 2023 instead of 24, I guess that would be my only gripe of the boat lol. Hope yall get as much enjoyment out of yours as we do ours! Stay safe out there on the water! 💦
No regular cigarette lighter hole for blowing up tubes and such? I have a 2019 and want a 2024 20ft dlx. The ski pole isnt an extra charge? Does yours have the vessel view installed?
Do you need a trailer brake controller for the brakes? Also, where is the battery located on the boat?
Nice video!
Are you running in salt or fresh water?
Appreciate the videos, what motor do you have and what's your top speed?
The turboswing website says it’s not compatible with the party barge. Is yours working without problems?
What speed are you seeing?
what was the coating you put on the toons?
i am soo awesome
Can you explain what the bar that surrounds the outboard is for?
Yes that is a turbo swing for pulling a tube. It has a ski pole but the rope rubs the top of the motor Cowan and will scratch it. That turbo swing also acts as a brush guard for when you tie up with multiple boats. You can also pull another boat with it. It is a must for me on a pontoon.
Not as OCD as you but I like that motor cover. Ours stays in a slip and I know the graphics on the motor is going to fade if we don't cover it in some way. Thanks!
Yea we are in the process of pouring a pad and building something to keep it under.
Hey Josh! We're excited to get a 24' Party Barge. I'm curious if there is a 12v DC "car plug" anywhere on the console, or nearby? Trying to see if there's any place to run a small inverter. It looks like they may have repurposed the 12v DC for 2 USB on the left of console?
Yea no cigarette type chargers anywhere. I have found on Amazon that they use a usb plug in for like blowing up floats etc.. Thanks for watching
Nuce boat! We just looked at some 2023 models and didn't see one with this floor plan. With the upgraded motor what did it end up out the door?
I paid a 💪and a 🦵!!! If you build it on sun-tracker web site it is a no haggle price everywhere you go it's a set price from dealer to dealer
The Sun Tracker logo panel pops out and a mount for a Lowrance Hook 5 fits
I have another video on what I did. Just wanted something a little bigger
@@jjf2ii we will for sure check it out!
I actually called you guys to ask if you knew what fits there days after I purchased the boat. So funny you guys watched the video. Thanks so much !!
Have you had the opportunity to try the headlights? Im curios to see how well something like that would work vs the light pods you usually see. A quick night video would be awesome. Show off the interior lighting and all that good stuff. Do you plan to run rope lights?
Hey man sorry for the delayed response. I haven't been able to get out at night but it is on my list for sure to get it done. I would like to run rope lights but just don't how much I would use them. Thank you for watching.
@jjf2ii Right on man. And no worries. You don't have to apologize for late commenting. I look forward to seeing more from you!
Hi What kind and model for that fish finder mounting with ball on it and where to get it so I want put on for my new pontoon too Thanks
So sorry I never saw your comment. It is a Scotty ball small size. I got mine on Amazon. It is model # 0163. Thanks for watching.
I like the rig!
Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks for the video I appreciate it. And it’s weird how yours shows the pressure when I have read 2 ppl on the Facebook group have said they need to purchase a optional sensor. On your boat order purchase does it show that option by chance maybe? Maybe sensor plus install? And how much better is the speaker system in the new 24 then previous years in ur opinion
I looked and it doesn't say anything on my purchase order any where. But for the record I ordered a 2023 and received a 2024. The stereo system is night and day vs my 2019 I owned. I even upgraded the 2019 with kicker everything. This wet sound blows it out the water
@@jjf2ii ok well maybe they got unlucky lol. I went to the bass boat shop in Orlando yesterday and they told me I might as well buy the 2023 cause the 2024 has no changes 🤣. I told them so no more powered Bimini, digital display, telescoping steering wheel ,better speakers isn’t any difference huh lol.
@@cooch1983 There are some really nice upgrades. I have found out that No one knows anything about this boat. I'll keep posting videos about it as I learn new things. But for them to say it's the same is a joke.
I read that the new digital gauge won’t read the water pressure ? U have to buy a optional sensor for $200 to have it read? Is that true for yours? Thanks for the video.
Well I have only been out two times but I thought it showed water pressure. Going out this afternoon and I'll look again. I will have a updated video of where I mounted the lowrance HDS 7 as well
Storms hit yesterday hoping to go out today.
Uploaded new video about water pressure
I bought the 20 DXL and dealer said we would have to buy the $200 sensor.
@@gregmitchell5016 I don't know see if yours reads it. Maybe I am looking at the wrong thing. You are talking about water pressure correct?
Great video. i was at the dealer and asked them if the 2024 was different then the 2023. They said it was the same. So glad I did my own research. Ordering a 2024 RF 3XP.
For sure order the 2024. Lots of small upgrades that add up. Congrats on ordering a new boat. Enjoy!!! Thanks for watching.
Order the xp3 24 fishing
How many ummm’s can 1 person say
