The summer bite is on fire and so are the teams aboard Jarrett Bay boats! With a string of podium finishes and record-breaking performances, July has proven once again that these custom Carolina builds are built to dominate. Let’s take a look at how our customers have been making waves from North Carolina to Bermuda.
