The Yankee Spirit, an 80’ Lydia boat designed for commercial purposes, arrived at Jarrett Bay on May 21st, 2010. The Yankee Spirit is owned by Mr. Howard and Jacqueline Dubinett of Colts Neck, New Jersey. The new name upon departure will be True Love. The Dubinetts explained that they have a very special group of friends that love to fish and socialize together and that their current 53’ Viking Yacht did not have enough room to allow them to fish together as they would like. The Yankee Spirit was previously a whale watching vessel home ported in Gloucester, MA. Jeff Fulcher, Jarrett Bay’s Service Manager flew to Boston on March 26th, 2010 to review the scope of work and provide an estimate for the refit to be accomplished. We were extremely happy to receive the job and be able to work with the owners on their dream boat. Work commenced on May 24th, 2010.

The Easiest Haul He Has Ever Had
Jeff and Kendra,
I wanted to make sure you knew that both the owner and broker of Andy M were extremely impressed with the professionalism and knowledge of your Travelift crew today. The owner said this is the easiest haul he has ever had with the boat and he felt the crew handled her extremely well. John Nelson, the broker, who has hauled many boats here, says that this is the best crew he’s seen.
Just wanted to pass along to you the job well done. Have a great day.

25th VIP 3: Jack Huddle
In this 12 part series, Randy Ramsey reflects each month on the most influential people to contribute to Jarrett Bay’s success over the last 25 years.
Seldom does a person come into your life that makes such a significant impact as Jack Huddle did to mine and the Jarrett Bay family. I have often told people that Jack has become a second father to me. He has given advice, instilled confidence and has provided opportunities for us that only a father would. I first met Mr. Huddle on Harkers Island where he fished his 29’ Phoenix “Jack’s Boat” from the same marina I ran charters out of. As I got to know him, it was easy to see he had a real love of the outdoors and was passionate about offshore fishing and hunting at the “camp” in the community of Stacy.
Getting the Waste Knot Cover Shot
This post is from the Occhio blog, Waste Knot Cover Shot – all content & photos courtesy of Marc Montocchio.
I’ve had this idea to shoot a moving boat from the bow point of view for more than 10 years since seeing a graphite boom used to shoot similar angles in commercial car photography. If during that period of time I had tried to force the shot with less than perfect gear, crew and most of all boat it would have fallen flat. The last two years since we started Occhio I have found myself in the orbit of an incredible bunch of people that have allowed me access to opportunities to bring it all together. One of the biggest changes was moving to Eastern North Carolina and being surrounded by some of the most beautiful sport fishing yachts in the world, some built as close as a few miles from my gallery. Although a very long way from my birth place of South Africa, I’m proud to call Morehead City my adopted home.
Jeff Burton 46′ Miami Bound: Time for a Launch Party!
The Jeff Burton Blog presented by Marlin Magazine:
With the construction of my new Jarrett Bay 46 now completed for the most part, it’s all in their competent hands coming down to the finish details. I’ve done all my work, all the decisions have been made, and the boys at Jarrett Bay are just left with getting her dialed in for her unveiling at the Miami Boat Show. Bausch American & IMS American finished installation of the tower, top and all of our electronics last week, and her Victory Blue Alexseal paint looks great. All of this amazing work came together as planned, and she left Jarrett Bay on February 7 – Miami Show bound.

The Beginning of a Long Term Relationship
Jeff,
I don’t know what I can say or how I can show my appreciation to you and for all you have done to help me over the last several months. What I do know is that I have been lucky to meet a very special person who exemplifies the meaning of professionalism and goodness. I hope this is the beginning of a long term relationship and if there is anything I can do to help you, just let me know. As an aside we had to throw all the dishes overboard since the rack wasn’t done. No problem though we have been working the take out menu’s hard on the way south. David is truly a gem of a person and a great reflection on you for suggesting he help me get the “Nance” south.
Best wishes for the new year!

The Most Professional and Friendly Group of People
Dear Randy,
My name is Patrick Fehily and I wanted to write you in regards to my satisfaction while dealing with Jarrett Bay. I grew up at the New Jersey shore and am now in Florida for college. I just wanted to take a moment and tell you that you have by far the most professional and friendly group of people working for you. From the folks who manage your Facebook and Twitter accounts to the employees in the “Boathouse,” you truly do treat people with respect. I’ve only purchased clothing and small gift items from Jarrett Bay, but what I have noticed is that I still receive the same respect as someone who may be having a multi-million dollar boat built. That really goes a long way with me as I admire your yachts and although I’m not in a position to own one, you all still see my value as a customer and for a young guy starting out that impacts me in a positive way. Again, much thanks and best wishes for a Merry Christmas and an prosperous and healthy New Year.
Sincerely,
Patrick J. Fehily
Professional & Expedient Haul Out of our Grand Banks
Randy,
Good morning. Hope all is well.Nan and I picked up our Grand Banks trawler on Monday after being at Jarrett Bay having some scheduled work done. We want to compliment your staff on our first experience of hauling out our boat, and let you know that we, as customers appreciate the hospitality and professionalism from everyone. Having owned and operated our own businesses for more than 30 years, we know that this is not something that just happens. While the final bill is always one of those “take your breath away” moments, it was certainly within the range of the estimates that Todd and Keith had provided. Keith was excellent to work with. The work was done professionally, and expeditiously, and we simply wanted to say thanks for a positive experience from everyone at Jarrett Bay. Please pass our thanks on to those not copied on this email. We have more work that we want to do to our boat over the next 18-24 months, and we will certainly be back again.
Have a good week, and Go Wolfpack!
Regards,
Chuck, and Nan

Jeff Burton Blog: All Efforts Coming Together
From the Jeff Burton 46′ Jarrett Bay Project presented by Marlin Magazine:
Well, it’s been awhile since I’ve been over to the shop to actually lay my hands on my new Jarrett Bay, but that doesn’t mean I haven’t seen it! With today’s technology, we’ve been able to make a lot of decisions from pictures and video. The time lapse camera has also helps us follow the progress as well.
The guys building the boat are real good about calling and giving me options on how to address each custom decision, and after looking at a couple of pictures in an email, I can get a better idea of what I’m actually deciding on!
