Pensacola Yacht Club Women Win Knost Championship After 53-Year Wait

Pensacola, FL (NewsRadio 92.3) -- Pensacola Yacht Club's women's sailing team has brought home the Knost Championship for the first time since the early 1970s. The team, which included three service academy graduates now training in Naval Aviation locally, won the title August eighth and ninth in Pass Christian, Mississippi. Vice Commodore Susan Domagala says the win connects generations of PYC sailors, spanning back to the club's championship run in 1971 through 1973. The victory adds to Pensacola's growing reputation as a premier sailing hub, following American Magic's new High-Performance Center at the Port of Pensacola.
