New Dockside brand from Forest River Marine

Pontoon manufacturer Forest River Marine has launched its newest brand, Dockside, an entry-level pontoon boat line designed to welcome new boaters to the water while still appealing to those who are more experienced.

Features of the new brand include standard blacked-out rails and a fade-resistant durable composite deck.

Philip Podgorny, general manager of Forest River Marine, explained that Dockside has been developed to open the door to a new generation of pontoon owners, allowing them to explore, unwind, and connect on the water.

“From day one, our mission with Dockside has been to create something truly accessible—without sacrificing quality or enjoyment,” he said.

Dockside is not only a great first boat — it’s the beginning of a lifelong adventure.

The Dockside lineup consists of four models, the 20DF, 20DQ, the 22DF and the 22DQ.

The 20DF has an overall length of 20ft while the 20DQ has a length of 20ft 10in. The 22DQ and the 22DF both have an overall length of 22ft.

Versatile and adaptable

All the models have a maximum 115hp engine and a seating capacity of 11 with standard features including a manual bimini, reboarding ladder and a mid back reclining helm chair.

The craft have been designed to be versatile and adaptable for different uses such as cruising, fishing or swimming.

Dockside adds to Forest River Marine’s existing lineup of brands, which also include Berkshire, South Bay, and Trifecta.

In July 2025, Forest River Marine announced it was collaborating with lifestyle brand Margaritaville to introduce a new series of pontoon boats.
