Heard he’s very sick. Anybody know what the word is?

 

[rivermobster]

Fuck.

 

[Bajastu]

Bummer! I was able to sit down with him a few years ago when we rebuilt my 19' Hallett SS transom. He is a cool cat.

 

[rivermobster]

I just heard some very bad news I don't want to repeat, from someone that knows him, but didn't know all the details.

Pray for the guy. Hopefully he will get through this ok.

My dad bought a used hallett back in 08. We stopped in the snow room to kill time and he took us all back through the factory. Super nice guy

Prayers for him

I was just thinking the other day how Baron boats went pretty silent after the initial push, that's a bummer

There are a few of us that know, it's just not my place to air out what Jerry is dealing with.

Either way, we all hope for the best

 

[DB / HAV]

Get well Jerry! Praying for you

 

[Familyties]

Jerry did get back to me and thanked me for my positive thoughts, I did not pry into his health,

 

[TBulger]

Jerry put headers on my 24’ back in about 96, he must be about 70 by now?

 

[HALLETT BOY]

Any info on Jerry ?

 

[Rajobigguy]

Whatever Jerry is dealing with is his business but I would like to know if he’s going to be okay.
Prayers and best wishes for you Jerry.

 

[Shlbyntro]

[JFMFG]

Hopefully he is doing better.

 

[BHC Vic]

I wished him well on Instagram a few days ago and got this message today. I really hope he’s doing better from whatever was going on

 

[Gelcoater]

Talked with Jerry on the phone a while ago.
He wants to get going on a build
He sounded good, enthusiastic about being able to get back to it.
Doing a few days a week. Gets tired easier.
I’d imagine so, don’t work the body and the body don’t work.
Gotta keep the juices flowing.

Anyhow, he’s back!
Look forward to some shot from in the booth down in the From the mold section.
ETA
2 weeks.

Glad to hear Jerry is doing well. I don’t have intimate knowledge of what went down after Nick passed but from what I have gathered it seemed like Jerry got the short end of the stick.
I was happy to see him continue the legacy of fine crafted boats. I hope whatever challenge he is facing he is able to overcome.
