Forest River has announced an additional management change as part of its senior management realignment. Effective immediately, the marine division, led by Forest River veteran Ryan Casey, will now report to David Wright.
“Our marine division is a highly strategic growth opportunity for Forest River, and we’re excited to bring renewed focus and energy to Ryan’s division,” stated David Wright, president of Forest River Commercial.
“Growth and expansion are part of our future road map, and I believe our marine group will benefit from the growth culture that David has created,” said Pete Liegl, Forest River CEO.
Forest River Marine has grown its prominence in the pontoon category behind its unique one-piece fiberglass composite decks that are two times stronger and 40% lighter than standard marine grade plywood, and resist rot and buckling. It offers three distinct pontoon brands and distributes these products through a wide array of leading pontoon dealers:
- South Bay: offers quality and comfort in fully featured designs for the family and family adventures. Each South Bay delivers durability, comfort and quality.
- Trifecta: offers comfort and performance in sleek, contemporary designs that stand apart from the competition. Each Trifecta delivers an attention to detail with innovative performance
- Berkshire: offers smooth and powerful performance with elegant designs, premium features and plush finishes. Berkshire will redefine your expectations of what a pontoon can be, the company said.
