Ethical Profile

Mixed.

MasterCraft Boat Holdings receives a mixed ethical rating. The company reports over four million safe hours worked without a lost-time incident, and its CEO-to-median employee pay ratio was 34:1 in 2024, which is relatively low compared to some industries. However, Glassdoor employee ratings show 3.4/5 overall, with culture and career opportunities rated lower at 2.7/5 and 2.6/5 respectively. Environmentally, MasterCraft invested $1.7 million in sustainable manufacturing, reducing waste by 22% in 2023, and aims for 15-25% emissions reductions by 2025-2026. 16% of 2024 models feature electric/hybrid propulsion, and some boat components include recycled content, like 18% in hull composites for 42 models. Philanthropic efforts include a $75,000 donation to St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in 2023. Reports suggest limited transparency on Scope 3 emissions and ethical sourcing practices.
