Lance Burkin’s journey in the marine industry is as captivating as his early adventures. Moving onto a sailboat at the tender age of 9 with his mom and sibling, Lance Burkin set the stage for a life filled with exploration and discovery. Traveling throughout the Caribbean, he and his brother Derk embarked on countless adventures, forming memories that would shape Lance’s future. His innate curiosity and knack for creating and fixing things began at just 4 years old, and by 7, he was already dismantling his sister Toste’s TV to understand its inner workings. Despite Toste’s initial frustration, Lance’s determination and skill ensured the TV was reassembled flawlessly, with no pieces left behind.

This early passion for understanding how things work was a tremendous asset during their family’s voyages, where Lance’s inventive spirit was frequently put to use. His hands-on approach and inventive mindset were instrumental in overcoming the challenges that came with sailing to new and unfamiliar places.

With nearly 20 years of experience in the HVAC industry in the Florida Keys, Lance Burkin’s return to the marine sector marks a significant transition in his career. Now serving as the Head Operations Manager for St Augustine Sailing and All Points Yacht Sales, Lance brings his extensive expertise to overseeing all maintenance and repairs, ensuring that every vessel remains in pristine condition for clients. His role is crucial in maintaining the high standards that St Augustine Sailing and All Points Yacht Sales are known for.

Lance’s passion for design and invention remains strong, even as he applies his skills to the marine industry. Those who visit the office or dock will hear tales of Lance’s innovative creations and solutions, a testament to his enduring curiosity and creativity. His blend of practical experience and inventive thinking makes him an invaluable asset to the team, continuing to push the boundaries of what’s possible in both the sailing and marine worlds.
