Flamingo Marine Launches the All-New ‘ROVE’

A Revolution in Luxury Pontoon Boat Design


Grafton, WI — October 20, 2025 — Flamingo Marine, a next-generation performance pontoon company redefining how boaters experience the water, is proud to announce the official launch of its newest model, the Flamingo ROVE. The ROVE introduces a new era of adaptive design, transforming the way families and friends relax, entertain, and connect on the water.

We call it the Flamingo 5 — a collection of patent-pending innovations engineered and manufactured in-house by Flamingo Marine.

A New Standard in Pontoon Innovation
The Flamingo ROVE embodies Flamingo Marine’s design philosophy: boating should move with you. Every inch of the ROVE has been engineered to enhance comfort, versatility, and performance — bringing together modern materials, reconfigurable spaces, and advanced ergonomics.

Flamingo 5 Signature Innovations
GeminiTable: Dual folding entertainment tables that adapt to any social setting — from cocktail hour to sunset dining — then hide seamlessly when not in use.
ServingShields (patent pending): Convertible windshields that provide wind protection while underway and effortlessly fold flat to create extra counter space for serving food and drinks at anchor.

MegaLounge: A reconfigurable seating system that transforms throughout the day — from a forward-facing cruise layout to a wraparound social lounge — ensuring everyone always has the best seat on the lake.

Wings: Exclusive folding wings that expand deck space by up to 50%, delivering a true open-deck experience for swimming, entertaining, or easy access to the water.

FlexStorage: Smart storage solutions that keep tubes, water pads, and gear organized and out of the way — so your deck stays clear and your gear stays dry.

Built for Performance and Comfort
Underneath its elegant design, the Flamingo ROVE is built for stability, power, and precision. Its advanced tri-toon hull is designed to be wave-piercing, with a low-spray bow for a smoother ride and greater efficiency. Whether carving through wakes or cruising at sunset, the ROVE balance of performance and luxury creates an experience unlike any other pontoon on the market.

A Statement on the Water
“The ROVE represents everything we believe boating should be — effortless, dynamic, and fun,” said Robbie Massengill, Director of Recreational Marine for Flamingo Marine. “We set out to eliminate compromises and reimagine how a pontoon can adapt to every moment of the day. From design to execution, the ROVE is built for people who don’t just want to be on the water — they want to live on it.”

Availability
The Flamingo ROVE will make its official web debut on October 20, 2025, with pre-orders available online at Flamingo-Marine.com. As Flamingo signs authorized dealers, early customers will be connected with the right dealer in their region. Demo events and regional showcases will follow at top boating destinations across the U.S. during Boat Show Season 2026.

Frequently asked questions
What can you expect from Flamingo Marine Boats?

Five exclusive innovations that set Flamingo apart in the pontoon boat world:

  1. GeminiTable – Dual folding tables that adapt and hide away
  2. ServingShields – Convertible windshields that double as counters
  3. MegaLounge – A reconfigurable lounge for sun or socializing
  4. Wings – Folding sides that expand your deck by 50%
  5.  FlexStorage – Smart storage for tubes, toys, and gear

The Gemini Table system is unique for a couple reasons:

  1.  Integrated into the front bow, outboard seat back pocket, and does not take up storage space
  2.  Storage of the tables is uniquely engineered to hideaway
  3.  The tables can be used together, separately and have a walk way between to not block the path to the front
  4.  Industry first and only modular table available on a pontoon boat that allows the customer to set it use as they want

ServingShields play two roles.

  1. They are a tempered glass serving table for food, snacks and drinks. Allow for convenient flat service space that no other boat in the world does.
  2. They are a windscreen when underway… effectively blocking and redirecting wind while driving

The MegaLounge is an industry first movable rear furniture system that can be configured to your need. Whether it’s a sunpad for catching rays or 2 stern couches along the fence to accommodate your friends, the MegaLounge furniture system works for you.

Flamingo Wings are sides of the deck fence that are engineered to fold out, increasing the deck space & access to the water, and improving the boating experience. Designed for use while stationary, the wings provide substantial more usable deck space and can carry up to 1200 lbs per side when lowered. The spring assisted lift and lowering allows for easy, lightweight deployment and retraction.

FlexStorage is an outcome of multiple Flamingo 5 features used together. Storage is designed into the MegaLounge, created under the ServingShields and engineered into the center pontoon of the boat. The movement of the MegaLounge also enables tubes, large toys and waterpads to be stored behind the seat and pressed against the side of the boat. The benefit of this is that the occupants of the boat are not stepping over or on the toys during trips to and from the sandbar.

All five Flamingo features come standard — world-first innovations, included in the base price of every Flamingo ROVE pontoon boat.
