Release Boatworks

Jim Turner, owner of the Casa Vieja Lodge in Guatemala, laid up his first hull in Opa-locka, Florida, in November 2011 and had her at the Miami boat show in February 2012: a 46-foot walkaround named Goldfish, later Charlie. The yard grew into a 50,000-square-foot plant in Egg Harbor City, New Jersey, building vacuum-infused sportfishermen from 36 to 66 feet to Erwin Gerards designs.
