Hey guys! The narration for my documentary sounds flat, and I would like to know how to add more bass to my voice. Any idea how to do that through VEGAS Pro 17??? Thanks!

Add an Audio FX. Several of them will add bass. Try them to see which suits you best. I'll leave the audio experts to suggest which.

Boosting the low frequencies with an EQ (or the opposite, old school method, cut highs, boost overall level.. traditionally better for analog) Another option is a multi-band compressor, which can be similar to the EQ method. Disable compression and use the multi-band output volume faders.. the compressor gain reduction functions can also be used (or abused)

A bass synthesizer process is another option, for instance the Waves Audio plug-in 'Renesounce Bass' (R-bass), however bass synth plug-ins are easy to abuse.. therefor I usually do not recommenced them for non-audio folks..

All said, it is best to record a great sounding track from the get-go, if not, it's just polishing a turd;
