a spectacle of a day when the hull and cabin are pulled outside and a series of crane lifts maneuver the heavy equipment into the hull before lifting and fastening the “house” atop. With the cabin top in place, the owner and crew can then get their first true experience of how the final interior spaces will feel around them and can make final decisions on how exactly they’d like everything to be buttoned up. GETTING GOING After final coatings, appointments, sea trials and performance tuning, Renegade was officially delivered in the Summer of 2022, and the team wasted little time before heading south. “Our initial trip was to San Salvador in the Bahamas Out Islands. We were a little late for the marlin run, but we did go 1 for 3 during that trip and it served as a good shakedown trip for the boat,” Glazer says. Since then, they have been fishing the boat in the near-island Bahamas and have had no trouble enjoying the billfish and wahoo bite between there and South Florida. “The boat is scheduled to be shipped to Quepos, Costa Rica in December where it will live at the Marina Pez Vela until June of 2024 for the sailfish and marlin season,” he reveals. Ultimately, the breathtaking finishes and custom features of Jarrett Bay’s latest masterpiece are the icing on the cake; perfectly complementing this unique “open convertible” concept for a special owner and their specific fishing and travel interests. And while Renegade may have been quickly whisked away to sub-tropical fishing grounds upon delivery, all of the careful design and engineering performed inhouse and brought to life by Jarrett Bay’s experienced craftspeople, shall always be a source of immense pride back in Beaufort.
