Jarrett Bay Boatworks sheltered over 220 vessels during Hurricane Irene

Power was restored to the Jarrett Bay Marine Park approximately 6pm Monday night.

The Army Corp of Engineer vessel, Beaufort, was launched at 7:15am Sunday morning to allow for surveying of inlets and channels We commenced launching of commercial and live-aboard vessels Monday at 8am. We cleared the wash pad of all vessels and commenced moving and washing of vessel bottoms this morning. We are now launching “last in, first out” vessels as we reach them, for those customers wishing to depart.

After hauling 150 yachts in 4 days, Jarrett Bay sheltered a total of over 220 vessels as our area took a direct hit from Hurricane Irene.

We have received numerous requests for vessel maintenance before departure of many of the vessels hauled, so this will slow down our launching schedule as we move vessels that wish to stay up for a while. We are doing every thing we can to get those vessels launched for owners wishing to use their vessels for the Labor Day weekend, but unfortunately Irene will keep many on the hard.

We have the next tropical wave heading our way that we are already monitoring for mid-next week and later.
