“If you’d asked me when I was 16 years old if I was going to build a boat, I would have told you you’re crazy,” says Jarrett Bay Founder and President Randy Ramsey when recalling his 30-plus year career in the boat building industry. But to understand how the company has risen to where it is today, you have to go back to the root of it all—hull #1, which stemmed from a simple and pure love of fishing.
Beaufort, NC (October 18, 2022) – Jarrett Bay Boatworks is excited to announce the commission of Hull 68 by repeat owners for an impressive upgrade to a high-tech 90-foot sportfish with a full tower and open bridge.
This newest custom build will join the builder’s long list of extraordinary projects with cutting-edge infusion and advanced lamination techniques, both to the superstructure and the decks, to save weight. The cold-molded hull will be traditionally crafted to ensure Jarrett Bay’s signature legendary ride, while a massive cockpit and bridge will provide the space needed to fish and relax comfortably. The range is expanded with her ability to carry more than 4,000 gallons of fuel, allowing for extended travel.
There are few compliments greater than a returning customer. Jarrett Bay boasts many owner families who have entrusted their craftspeople to build their dream sportfishing boat more than once. Final details are currently under review, including power options and the interior arrangement. Construction is set to begin in the early part of 2023 and Jarrett Bay invites fans and followers to join in on the journey through the popular vlog series, Jarrett Bay Insider.

Jarrett Bay Boatworks, founded in 1986, has delivered more than 100 custom and semi-production sportfishing boats and services more than one thousand boats per year through their 175-acre Jarrett Bay Marine Park in Beaufort, North Carolina at ICWMM 198. Recognized as an ABBRA Boatyard of the Year, named an NC Manufacturer of the Year, and a two-time recipient of “Best Power Yacht 50-100 Feet” Refit Excellence Awards, Jarrett Bay has nearly 200 employees and 135,000 sq. ft. of building space—making it one the East Coast’s largest and most respected all-inclusive boating facilities.
Beaufort, NC – Hull 67 is the third new custom Jarrett Bay delivered in a 12-month interval and is another one-of-a-kind yacht. From afar, Renegade looks like a 56-foot convertible sportfish with a traditional flybridge. But upon closer inspection, you’ll find an additional lower helm station and convertible bulkhead. Thanks to these features, she is a unique hybrid with the ability to transform into a “hardtop express” at times. This design allows the owners to choose their mode of operation based on conditions and activities. They may either enjoy the 360-degree view from the climate-controlled luxury of an enclosed helm station salon or open it up like an express for the ease of movement and proximity to fishing action in the cockpit.
