Parks Marina Brings Home 2 Major Awards at Yearly Cobalt Boats Dealer Meeting
Parks Marina continues a record-setting 2026 by bringing home three major dealership awards during the Cobalt Boats Dealer Meeting held in Knoxville, Tennessee from September 11 to September 13. Not only does one award highlight the major accomplishments of each member of the Parks Marina team, salesman Jamie Johnson was recognized as one of the best Cobalt salesmen in the entire country.
Johnson was named Cobalt’s Western District Salesman of the Year, an award given to only one person in the district each year, with another award given to a salesman in the company’s Eastern district.
“Some people sell boats. Some people build relationships that last a lifetime. He’s been selling Cobalt for 26 years, and this certainly isn’t his first time standing up here,” said Rusty Scott, the Western District Regional Sales Manager for Cobalt Boats. “His customer following is so strong that I joke his cell phone is worth $20 million. That kind of loyalty doesn’t happen by accident. It’s earned one customer at a time”
Parks Marina is also the winner of the Top Sales Dealer of the Year award, recognizing a year of all-around success.
“This is a special place, and the people behind it are even more special. They fought hard through a challenging year, never backed down, and finished on top of their market,” Scott said. “Debbie Parks stepped up, took the wheel fearlessly, and she’s winning. This year was about leadership, determination, and finishing on top.”
The Cobalt Boats Dealer Meeting is an event for all Cobalt dealers worldwide.
Scott added, “At Parks Marina, they don’t just sell the Okoboji lifestyle — they own it.”
