Nice Ranger Trade won't Last!

02/27/2026

If you’re shopping for a luxury pontoon in the Inland Northwest, you’ve probably toured the "Big Names." They all have beautiful seats, nice lights, and great sound systems. But as Mercury & MerCruiser certified technicians, we look at what’s under the floor—and that’s where the competition starts to fall apart.
Most luxury brands are still building their $100k+ boats on a foundation of marine-grade plywood and 24" on-center chassis. We think you deserve better.
Here is why Berkshire Pontoons are the only choice for boaters who care about engineering:
⚓ The 16-Inch Standard: While others use 24" spacing, Berkshire builds with 16" on-center cross-members. It’s the difference between a boat that "shudders" in the Lake CDA chop and one that feels like a rock.
⚓ V-Lite Z42 Composite Deck: 40% lighter and 2x as strong as plywood. Most importantly? It is 100% rot-proof. No soft spots. Ever.
⚓ World Record Pedigree: Built by Forest River Marine—holders of the fastest production Tritoon record. Efficiency isn't just about speed; it's about better handling and safety for your family.
Don’t get "wowed" by the furniture and stuck with a plywood foundation. We’ve moved into our brand-new Sales Showroom in Post Falls specifically to show you the difference.
Come see the Berkshire engineering for yourself.

ANNUAL WINTER DRAWDOWN

ahd

CYANOBACTERIA BLOOM ADVISORY UPDATE

DRAWDOWN

The annual drawdown of Pontoosuc Lake will begin on October 15 again this year. The plan is unchanged from past years and is in accordance with Orders of Conditions approved by the Pittsfield and Lanesborough Conservation Commissions as well as the responsible departments of the Commonwealth):

Commence drawdown on Oct 15.
Drawdown at 1-3 inches/day until the target of -3 ft +/- .5 ft is attained.
Maintain the lake at that level until spring refill after ice-out.

Ideally the lake level will remain down until the spring thaw, but if there is a significant storm event the lake can fill quickly and the wind-blown ice sheet will exert tremendous force on the shoreline and shoreline structures. Of course if anything is left in the lake it will be severely damaged. We strongly recommend that docks and rafts be removed before the ice sheet forms.

CYANOBACTERIA BLOOM UPDATE

The toxic bloom is still present in the lake. The health advisory I sent out two weeks ago is still in effect. It is re-attached below. The bloom exhibits as a scum which appears and disappears with conditions on the lake, and has only been observed on the downwind shorelines when there is a light breeze. I observed it on my shoreline (north end of the lake) yesterday and Sunday. Tests of water in the water column have not shown levels above the level which is toxic. Many of us need to take our docks out, and would still like to enjoy a boat ride. What I advise my family is:

Avoid the scum if possible, and do not ingest it
Rinse off your skin if you do get some of the scum on it
Keep dogs and children out of the lake
