Proud new owner and NASCAR #31 driver Jeff Burton hosted a thank you party at Jarrett Bay’s Marine Park in Beaufort after his 46’ sportfish returned from her debut at the Miami Show in early March. During a collective effort to deliver a two-year custom sportfish project in less than a year, nearly 200 people touched this project, many working some of the longest days of their lives from start to finish. However as the 46’ sat as the backdrop for the thank you party and Jeff personally thanked every guest in attendance, it was a dream realized for many more than just Jeff.
Jeff told the crowd of more than one hundred Jarrett Bay Marine Park associates, “You can look at the boat and see that you guys care about what you do. Jarrett Bay was the obvious choice, and the boat turned out just awesome.”

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.

I was fortunate enough to meet Capt. Omie when I fished with him in 1982 on “Sportsman”. We traveled to the Oregon Inlet Fishing Center that fall, and while we were anxious to take part in the white marlin fishing, Capt. Omie wanted a “few fish for the dock”. Little did I know that his definition of a few fish was having a box full! When we started in, the wind breezed up and I was amazed by the way the boat handled in the sea and how well she did compared to the boats I had run. Soon after that trip, we set our goals to build a similar boat that we would use in our charter business.

In reality, my dad is the reason for Jarrett Bay. Throughout my childhood, he was an avid fisherman. Our weekend exploits took us from the sounds to the ocean in search of a almost every salt water species. In addition to passing on his passion for fishing and boating, he instilled a work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit in me that has served the growth of the company well. When our company was in its infancy, our largest materials supplier was the East’ard Variety Store on Harker’s Island, referred to by the local’s as “Cab’s”. He was always ready to supply us with any thing needed to build our boats, and often was the last person to get paid.

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.

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.

For me the day was fantastic even with out a hook up. The Waste Knot is an incredible environment from which to fish. It’s not just the molded teak, fine finishes, and almost 4000 HP. Jarrett Bay has combined muscle and beauty into a single, organic fishing entity.
