A Bilingual Captain Sailing the Sea of Cortez and Beyond
Israel first fell in love with sailing about the time that he fell in love with his (future) wife. She had a little Sunfish they played with on the weekends up and down Clear Lake and Galveston Bay. After several ASA classes and a charter in the BVIs, he realized that his passion was not simply limited to day sailing.
Israel’s first major passage was from Bahia de Caraquez, Ecuador to Easter Island, Chile. During this 28-day endeavor, he learned how to read the ocean, play with the wind, and settle in and enjoy a long passage.
In the sailing mecca of Anacortes, Israel cut his teeth repairing diesel engines, rigging, plumbing, electrical, and through holes at Marine Servicenter.
Venturing north to Seward, Alaska, Israel continued repairing various aspects of all kinds of vessels as well as winterizing them.
After his stint in the cold, white north, Israel returned home to Mexico in 2020 to bring American-style service to the Baja Peninsula. Here in La Paz, he offers his clients customized sailing services ranging from deliveries to charters to repairs. In between moving and delivering boats all over the Sea of Cortez and up and down the Pacific, Israel captains day sails and overnight charters to the islands and nearby ecological preserves. He also services and repairs sailboats of all kinds. With every job that he undertakes, Israel does so with professionalism, safety, and a smile.
