Lanier Sailing Academy/ Pensacola Yacht Charter

Recently I took a coastal cruising and bareboat charter certifications through American Sailing Association. Both certifications were part of a 6 day/5 night class, held in Pensacola, FL by Lanier Sailing Academy. The Pensacola branch of Lanier Sailing Academy is co-owned and operated by Kathy and John Struchen, who are wonderful people. In 2007, 2008, and 2009, John was named as one of American Sailing Association's Outstanding Instructors (award was based on student evaluations submitted to ASA). Kathy and John also co-own Pensacola Yacht Charters and I can tell you from first-hand experience that these yachts are meticulously maintained.

If you are going to be in the Pensacola area and want to take a sailing class, do bareboat charter, charter a captained yacht, or take an ecological tour, then contact Kathy and John. They will take great care of you and your family.

If you stop by and see Kathy, John, or Tony, please tell them that Val says, HI!
