Floating Flame Redefines On-The-Water Enjoyment with the Launch of Boat-Safe, Portable Fire Pits

February 24, 2026

Floating Flame, manufacturer of portable fire pits ready for anything from boating to tailgating, has announced the nationwide availability of its patented fire pit – The Floating Flame. Taking the chill out of cooler days and evenings on the water, The Floating Flame extends the boating season for hours of enjoyment – no matter the temperature.
 
Originally designed for use on pontoon boats, the Floating Flame has quickly evolved into the most versatile fire pit on the market. Floating Flame is constructed in a compact form factor, yet large enough to put out excellent heat using a 20-pound propane tank. It offers over 20 hours of burn time; all while being optimized for operation in a marine environment with all marine-grade stainless steel components. With a similar concept to marine grills that have been in use on the water for more than 50 years, Floating Flame fire pits are perfectly safe for use on boats. Following eight years of engineering and testing, the Floating Flame incorporates multiple safety features, including fire-retardant construction material and UL-listed propane components.
 
The Floating Flame was founded by serial entrepreneur Ben Caya, after purchasing a unit from the original designer, before they shut down. Following a number of other projects in various industries, Caya brought his entrepreneurial spirit and engineering background to redevelop the original design based on his years of using it as a customer himself. Since its introduction, Floating Flame has grown exponentially, shipping units to customers across the U.S. and Canada.
 
“This is the most fun project I’ve been a part of,” said Ben Caya, founder of Floating Flame. “I began as a customer when I bought the original boat fire pit almost eight years ago and it remains one of my favorite purchases. When I realized the original creator had shut down operations, I reached out to reboot the business. Taking my years of actual use with the product, I went back to the drawing board to reimagine what a 2.0 version could like look. The product you see today is a culmination of years of tinkering to achieve the ultimate fire pit for your boat!”
 
The Floating Flame is intuitive to fire up, with a simple dial control just like a grill and features a smokeless design free of ashes, sparks and odor. The frame features side pods that can be used as coolers, extra storage or even a garbage can. For the ultimate portability, the lightweight, Floating Flame has two ergonomic handles for easy transportation, allowing users to bring the heat to any adventure from tailgates to backyard cookouts and camping.
