Description
The Floating Flame is a patented portable fire pit, designed from day one and from the ground up for boats. The size, the 30,000 BTU heat output, flame-retardant and UV protected materials as well as marine grade stainless were all built around life on the water.
Light it like a grill, turn the flame up or down, and keep drinks in the cupholders and side-pod coolers. When the night's over, carry it to the dock, the patio, the campsite; the go anywhere fire pit!

Watch It In Action
We have hours of the Floating Flame in action. Doom scroll through our Founder, Ben, walking through the features and backstory on his design. Watch as our real life customers talk about their Floating Flame, what they love and where they enjoy using it!
Built for the boat.
Ready for everything else.
We designed it for boats first, because a boat is the hardest place to put a fire: wind, waves, tight space and a crowd reaching for their drinks. It solves all of that, then carries off the boat to wherever the night goes.
Designed to kick out plenty of heat to keep the boat cruise warm
Lightweight yet durable plastic design make it one person carriable
A single 20lb propane tank will last 20+ hours on full blast
Built for every boat.
Wake boats, electric cruisers, yachts and one very custom pontoon. If it floats, the Floating Flame belongs on it.
One Fire Pit.
Everywhere You Venture.
Built for the boat. Designed to be taken anywhere your night leads you.
In one word: yes.
It's the first question every boater asks. Marine propane grills have been on boats for 75+ years. The Floating Flame works on the same idea, without the grease fires, and it was over-engineered with several layers of safety built in.
Our Founder, Ben, took 8 years to test, tinker and validate the concept before ever bringing it to market.
Propane components are UL Listed
Thick, UV protected, flame-retardant plastic for extra safety
There is no threat of sparks, ash or embers to damage your seats
Turn the knob and the flame is out
First on in Spring.
Last off in Fall.
Cool spring and fall nights are when most boats head in. Owners tell us the Flame is how they extend their season and spend more hours out on the water.
Allows the season to start early and end later, great investment for your Pontoon.Shawn S. · Nova Scotia
The flame puts off a lot of heat making getting out of the water after wakesurfing much easier.Brad R.
Lets us use the pontoon many more hours. Great for taking the chill off the sunset hours!Kathy T. · Minnesota
It started on my boat.
I bought a fire pit for my boat in 2016. When I sold that boat in 2022, people asked more about the fire pit than the boat; light bulb business idea moment. The company I bought it from had shut down, so I bought the design and rebuilt it from the ground up.
I added tons of cool features. Rubber feet so it doesn't slide. A thick flame-retardant, UV protected plastic shell. Cupholders and coolers because a boat never has enough. And handles, because I took my Flame with me everywhere.
I hope you enjoy your Floating Flame as much as I have over the years!

It's very well-made and heavy enough that it does not move around while underway.
Scott D. Verified ownerIt's also very stable, no tipping at all, even when there are quite a few waves on my lake.
Sebastien Verified ownerThe perfect addition to our 22’ Bennington… aside from being an attention getter, it was also great for a little warmth during our romantic sunset cruise.
Shannon B. Verified ownerThe floating flame has created a new level of cool on our pontoon boat! So much so that we added a second one to the second floor of the boat!
Russell W. Verified ownerWe can use our floating flame not only on the pontoon boat during cooler nights, but also at the end of our dock… or we even move it by our covered porch.
Kristie W. Verified ownerWe can sit out on the patio in the cool mornings and have coffee with it on and then take it out on the pontoon for an evening cruise on the lake!

Is it safe to use on a boat?
Yes! It was designed specifically for boats. The propane components are UL listed, the shell is thick flame-retardant plastic, and the original prototype was tested on the water for over 8 years before going to market. It works like a marine propane grill, without the grease fire risk.
Does it need to be bolted down?
The Floating Flame does not need to be bolted down. It has rubber feet like a Yeti cooler to prevent it from sliding. With the addition of the propane tank the unit has additional weight to stay planted and the tank also gives a very low center of gravity.
Does it stay put while the boat is moving?
It sits on rubber feet, and the tank stores inside the base for a low center of gravity. Owners tell us it stays in place underway.
How does it handle waves or large wakes?
The Floating Flame is not going to tip when hitting waves. It was designed and tested on Lake Michigan (5th largest lake in the world). It has rubber feet like a cooler to prevent it from sliding. With the addition of the propane tank the unit has additional weight to stay planted and the tank also gives a very low center of gravity.
How does it do in the wind?
Wind was the first problem we solved for. One owner put it this way: “It doesn't blow out the flame going 35 mph down the lake.”
How warm does it get?
The 30,000 BTU fire pit was designed to keep the entire front half of a large pontoon boat warm. The driver even gets some heat when you're on a slow sunset cruise!
What fuel does it use, and how long does a tank last?
A standard 20lb propane grill tank, which stores inside the unit. A full tank lasts about 20 hours on high, and longer on lower settings.
