2027 Veranda Relax Mossy Oak VR235: The Pontoon Built for Lake Norman Outdoors People
Veranda has partnered with Mossy Oak to build the most distinctive pontoon on Lake Norman. The 2027 Relax Mossy Oak VR235 wraps legendary Bottomland camo around a triple-toon performance platform with 300HP capability, RGB audio, and a full luxury feature list. In stock now at Carefree Boat Sales in Mooresville.
If you spend time on Lake Norman — fishing the coves, running the main channel, or just cruising with the family on a Saturday — you know the water. You also know that most pontoons look exactly the same. The 2027 Veranda Relax Mossy Oak VR235 is not most pontoons.
Veranda Luxury Pontoons partnered with Mossy Oak®, the premier outdoor lifestyle and camouflage brand, to wrap their Relax Series in the iconic Bottomland pattern — the camo that serious outdoors people have trusted for generations. The result is a boat that turns heads at every dock on Lake Norman and makes a statement before you even fire the engine.
It's in stock right now at Carefree Boat Sales in Mooresville, NC. Here's everything you need to know.
Why Mossy Oak Bottomland on a Pontoon?
Mossy Oak Bottomland is not a gimmick. It's the most recognized camo pattern in the country — built around the bark, branches, and shadows of the hardwood forests that line the banks of lakes like Norman. It represents a real connection to the land and the outdoor lifestyle that defines this region.
Veranda didn't just slap a camo graphic on a standard pontoon. The Mossy Oak partnership brought full Mossy Oak Bottomland seating upholstery throughout the boat, exterior camo accents, and a design language that ties the whole package together. Paired with your choice of black or bronze powder-coated rails, the VR235 Mossy Oak looks like nothing else on the water.

The Platform: Triple-Toon Performance
The Mossy Oak exterior rides on Veranda's proven 27" Triple-Toon Performance Package — three full-length 27" diameter pontoon tubes with 0.100" industry-leading wall thickness and recessed motor pod. This is the same platform that makes Veranda one of the best-performing pontoons in its class.
What does triple-toon mean for Lake Norman? Better hole shot, flatter ride in chop, and more stability at speed. The main channel on Norman can get rough on a windy afternoon — the triple-toon platform handles it without the wallowing you get from a standard two-tube setup.

VR235RC Mossy Oak with Bronze Rails — the bronze rail option pairs beautifully with the Bottomland camo
Rail Color Options: Black or Bronze
The Mossy Oak VR235 is available with two rail color options, and both look exceptional:
Black Rails — clean, aggressive, modern. The black powder coat against the Bottomland camo creates a sharp contrast that reads as premium from across the marina.
Bronze Rails — warm, earthy, and perfectly matched to the Bottomland palette. If you want the boat to feel cohesive with the camo theme, bronze is the call.
Both options include the full Fastback powder coat treatment on rails and floor trim. Stop by our Mooresville location and see both configurations in person — it's a decision worth making with your own eyes.
Notable Options Worth Adding
A few options stand out as near-must-haves for Lake Norman use:
- Aluminum Tandem Axle Trailer — Lake Norman's ramps vary; a quality trailer matters
- Yamaha Digital Engine Pre-rig — if you're running Yamaha power, this is the clean install
- Power Bimini Arch — one-touch shade, especially useful for afternoon sun on the main channel
- Dometic Electric Steering Upgrade — for 200HP+ configurations, this transforms the helm feel
- Garmin EchoMap 9 Upgrade — larger screen, more detail for navigating Norman's coves
- Diving Board with Color Matched SeaDek — Lake Norman is a swimming lake; this gets used
- Hanging Changing Room — pairs with the diving board for a complete swim setup
- SeaFlow Tankless Washdown System — rinse off after swimming without carrying water
- High Horsepower Package — 0.125" pontoon upgrade, additional structural baffles, and high-HP transom for 250HP+ engines
