Stock Island Yacht Club & Marina announces the hiring of a new chef, Key West native James Jernigan, at their newly relaunched restaurant “LL’s Test Kitchen”.  Chef James brings years of top-notch culinary experience to his new post.

Chef James’ ability to source specialty ingredients from across the country make for an ever-changing dining experience.
