📍 Ortonville, MN
Back for another one, and this one is loaded.

Returning customer Gofasters Powersports & Marine of Ortonville, MN, has taken delivery of their newest Elite Industries Fork Barge, outfitted with plenty of options to make long days on the water more efficient.

This build features:
- Jet Thruster System for side-to-side control
- 20' HD Downriggers
- Onboard Pressure Washer System
- Work Light Kit
- Additional Storage Boxes
- Aluminum Trailer with Hydraulic Jack
- And a fresh custom graphics package that definitely makes this one hard to miss.

We love seeing returning customers come back with an even better idea of how they want their next barge set up. Every operation is a little different, and builds like this are a great example of how an Elite barge can be equipped around the crew using it.

A big thank you to the entire GoFasters Powersports team for continuing to put their trust in Elite Industries. We can't wait to see this one on the water!

They came. They saw. They ate. They golfed. They networked. And they had a GREAT time at Elite Industries’ first Customer Appreciation Day!

It was a great opportunity for our entire team, from welding and assembly to service and management, to spend time with and thank the customers and industry partners who support what we do.

Camp Foley Marina was the perfect setting for the morning, giving guests a chance to check out our 2027 Fork & Crane Barges on the water. We also heard from Justin with IFP Motion Solutions and Jefferson with ANCHOR DOCK & LIFT, who shared practical maintenance tips and some perspective on the future of the lake service industry.

And, of course, we had some winners!

• Hunter & Jamie with The Docktors LLC took home the win in the 18-hole scramble at Whitefish Golf Club in Pequot Lakes, Minnesota.

• Brock from Wood Lakeside Services crushed the Longest Drive and took home a new putter.

• Ryan from Imperium Dock and Lift won Closest to the Pin.

• Bryan from Spicer Dock & Lift LLC took home a kicker motor donated by Honda Marine.

• Scotty from Enclave Dock and Lift won $750 courtesy of Fischer Cranes.

A huge thank you to the sponsors who helped make the day possible:

First Western Insurance • Fischer Cranes • Fusionworks • Honda Marine • IFP Motion Solutions • Marine Pro Systems • Oil-Air Products LLC • Suzuki

Most importantly, thank you to everyone who took the time to join us. It was great getting our team, customers, vendors, and others from across the industry together for a day that wasn't all about work.

We’re already looking forward to doing it again next year and welcoming even more new and longtime customers!

📍 Shell Lake, WI

Not every upgrade starts with a new barge. ⚓

After several seasons of putting their Elite Industries Fork Barge to work, Shell Lake Marine decided it was time for a fresh trailer.

This week, they took delivery of a new Elite-built aluminum trailer, custom designed and manufactured in-house specifically for our barges.

Whether it's a new barge or a new trailer, our goal is the same: build equipment that's dependable, purpose-built, and ready to work for years to come.

At Elite Industries, we offer both steel and aluminum trailers, engineered to fit our barges and the demanding environments they work in.

Thank you to the team at Shell Lake Marine for your continued trust. We appreciate being part of your operation.

Two days of filming on Whitefish at Camp Foley! Can’t wait to introduce all the benefits of our 2027 Fork & Crane Barges. Special thanks to Dustin from MSC Inc. Boat Lifts & Docks for joining us on the water and sharing his crane barge expertise. And, to Tony Augustinack at Perch Productions, can’t wait to share the finished videos.

📍 Southwest Michigan

One of the best parts of what we do is watching our customers grow. ⚓

Pro Dock Inc. recently took delivery of another Elite Industries Fork Barge, continuing a partnership that has grown right alongside their business.

Over the past few years, we've had the privilege of watching Pro Dock expand their operation, take on more work, and continue investing in equipment that helps them serve their customers even better. It's incredibly rewarding to play a small part in that journey.

Congratulations to the Pro Dock team on another addition to the fleet. We appreciate your continued trust in Elite Industries and can't wait to see what the future holds.

Here's to another successful season on the water! 🌊💪
