We wanted to pass on our appreciation for yet another positive Jarrett Bay service experience. This was our 3rd haul out at Jarrett Bay and we can truly say we have always had a positive experience. We have utilized the services of many boat yards over the years. Jarrett Bay ranks among the best of the best. When your vessel is hauled there is always a sense of concern as to its well being and security. Watching a 100 plus ton vessel being hauled is always nerve racking but the Jarrett Bay lift crew is so experienced that they make it look easy. Todd and Kendra promptly scheduled and handled all of the details as they have previously and made everything seamless and easy.

Protecting Your Hull: Introducing The Farrow System
Over the years as your hull becomes weathered, gathers barnacles, or is simply in need of repair, it can create drag that will drastically effect the performance of your vessel. In the past you might have had to completely sand down your hull and have it completely repainted. Now at Jarrett Bay we have a new system which can remove these surface defects and leave your topcoat and other custom artwork in tact.
Earlier this week, the Jarrett Bay service yard was the site of an in-depth training session showcasing a great new hull blasting system, known as The Farrow System.
Farrow System Explained:

Tropical Storm Katia Update #2
Good Morning Everyone,
I hope all of you have a very nice labor day weekend and we realize that many of you will not have use of your vessels due to Irene and the Katia forecast.
Katia is at 70mph sustained winds as of 5am this morning. It is progressing at 15mph. I will continue monitoring the track of this storm through the weekend and I expect that the 5 day NOAA projection to impact our area sometime early in the week. We will make the call to commence hurricane haul outs as soon as possible for those vessels that have departed to date. There is no definitive indications that Katia will make landfall in the continental US at this time, but it could move far enough west to preclude us from not being attentive and having to haul vessels to be sure we provide a safe harbor for your vessels.
Tropical Storm Katia Update #1
Tropical storm Katia is projected to be NNE of Puerto Rico Sunday. We will track this storm over the weekend and will give you all updates as possible. This storm has sustained winds of 60 mph and is moving at 20 mph NNW. It is too early to tell where it will go, but hopefully out to sea away from the U.S.
There was no significant damage to vessels in our yard during Irene. Just some covers torn, covers blowing around, enclosures torn etc. All vessels stayed on their stands and upright as they should. We have a tremendous amount of work to do on a lot of vessels. Many people are taking advantage of this necessary haul out to do some maintenance. We really appreciate the work.
