Just a little over two years after closing its Sea Ray Boats plant in Palm Coast, Illinois-based Brunswick Corp. on Monday announced plans to reopen it, this time as a plant for its Edgewater-based Boston Whaler boat line.
The reopening of the plant as a Boston Whaler facility is expected to create 300 to 400 jobs over the next 18 to 24 months.
Those jobs will be in addition to the 1,200 workers Boston Whaler employs at its 550,000-square-foot division headquarters/main plant off of U.S. 1 in the Southeast Volusia County city of Edgewater.
The 225,000-square-foot former Sea Ray plant is off Roberts Road, just north of State Road 100. The plant is in unincorporated Flagler County, but Palm Coast Mayor Millissa Holland said the city has agreed to annex the property at Brunswick Corp. s request. The company already owns the property and put it up for sale when it decided to close the Sea Ray plant. It has since been taken off the market.
