From the 2016 Palm Beach International Boat Show program:
Jarrett Bay Boatworks was founded in 1986 when longtime offshore charter captain Randy Ramsey, working with legendary Carolina builder Omie Tillett and naval architect Glen Haught, set out to build his own 52-footer. Little did Ramsey know he was about to become a boatbuilder by trade who would go on to produce sportfishermen from 34 to 77 feet. “I went from the bridge to the boat shop,” says Ramsey, 53, who gave up chartering for boatbuilding full time in 1993.
