DAVID C. LACZ, PRESIDENT, OWNER: Mr. Lacz has been in the yachting industry for the past fifteen years, ten of which were as a private yacht captain sailing throughout the Mediterranean, Caribbean and U.S. waters. During this period, he assisted in the design and construction of the yacht he was to captain. He eventually started a successful charter business for the owner, sailing guests and clients in the Caribbean and New England waters. Mr. Lacz started working for Bartram & Brakenhoff in 1995 as a broker and since ownership, he has been dedicated to upgrading technology for all the in-house systems, our marketing strategies, and increasing the sales force and business activities in both the Newport, Rhode Island and Ft.

His ideas and concepts are to continue with the style and reputation that Bartram & Brakenhoff has been known for over the past four decades and will continue with "business as usual" for the next four decades.
