OUR STORY
Choosing a pontoon today can be an overwhelming experience and no one
knows this better than Chris Riddle, a marine industry veteran, who has helped
customers with their pontoon purchase decision for decades. He has represented
the best pontoon brands in the industry and over the years watched the pontoon
complexity grow and the construction quality decline.
In 2010, Chris partnered with a dealer friend who shared his passion and vision
for a luxury pontoon that would surpass all others…a pontoon constructed with
the highest quality materials and hand built by highly skilled craftsmen and
women. A design that catches your eye the second it comes into view and then
excites all of your senses when you step on board, whether it is the leathery feel
of the furniture, the audio sensation, or the power to thrill. Their customers should
experience effortless luxury…thus, Xcursion Pontoons came to be.
THE XCURSION WAY
It has been almost 10 years since our first pontoon rolled down the line and while
we have embraced innovation such as the addition of smart NMEA 2000® digital
technology on all our helms, our basic philosophy hasn’t changed. Our pontoons
still come standard with more of the features consumers desire, with designs
that have high aesthetic appeal, that are built with only premium materials, by
only skilled craftsmen. Our attention to detail and uncompromising quality
standards applied to every Xcursion Pontoon is also backed by our 10-year
bow-to-stern warranty.
We believe our construction is second to none in the industry and encourage
you to take the time to learn more about our pontoons. We are committed to
delivering an owner experience that is effortless and enjoyable, every step
of the way. Welcome to Xcursion Pontoons!

BUILT WITH CONFIDENCE
With 300,000+ square footage of production space in Xcursion's newly acquired facilities, opportunities are boundless. The facilities are staffed with experts in the construction of aviation, ski and bass boats, and industrial buildings that undergo extensive Xcursion Construction Training.
SUPERIOR QUALITY
Xcursion Pontoons are held to the highest standards, and each series is built to last. We offer 25 inch tubes on our chassis for maximum stability, with cross members on 14.3 inch centers. Our frames are made of high-quality materials, carefully selected to ensure that our customers get a superior model every single time.
XCURSION GUARANTEE
By offering a 10-year standard Bow-to-Stern Warranty, as well as our Exclusive Honda 10-Year Motor Warranty — the best in the industry — we continue to build the best boats on the water. We’re always looking for better designs and equipment, so we’re always raising the bar — not only for our competitors, but also for ourselves.
THE TRUE ART OF
XCURSION CRAFTSMANSHIP
At Xcursion Pontoons, you might say we “over build” our pontoons as compared to the competition and we do this for one reason, we know today’s pontoon owners demand more performance from their pontoons, and with our lifetime structural warranty, we have to build every Xcursion Pontoon to last.
