JOIN THE BEST BOAT BUILDERS IN AMERICA

Our team of boat builders has the unique combination of craftsmanship, creativity, work ethic, and passion that has resulted in Cobalt being recognized as the best-made boats in the United States. We’re always looking for talented people to join our Kansas and Tennessee teams. So, if any of those attributes describe you, we’d love to hear from you.

WHAT WE DO

We build exceptional boats, and we’ve been doing it for 55 years. Founded in 1968, Cobalt is the market-share leader in sterndrive boats. We build boats that cover the diverse and evolving needs of our boating customers, from cruisers and runabouts to sport boats and outboards. We operate from Neodesha, Kansas, with a second plant in Roane County, Tennessee, and maintain a strong dealer network that stretches across North America and Europe.

WHY COBALT?

Cobalt has a 55-year history of passion, integrity, fairness, and relentless work ethic—making it one of the leading employers in the region. Plus, with competitive compensation and benefit packages, we continue to attract the best talent, which has helped make Cobalt the employer of choice in southeast Kansas and eastern Tennessee.

WHERE WE WORK AND LIVE

Cobalt Headquarters is located in Neodesha, Kansas, a town whose name derives from the Osage term for “where waters meet.” Aptly named and going strong for more than 150 years, Neodesha touts a highly ranked school system, The Neodesha Promise Scholarship Program, many family-centric amenities, and some of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet.

Our second manufacturing plant makes a home in Lenoir City, Tennessee, just west of Knoxville. This new facility is nestled in the natural beauty of the Tennessee River plains just below the Great Smokey Mountains.
