The Baja Bare Boat Charters Experience

We had the privilege of speaking with Mike Madlock, the founder of Go Baja Sailing, to gain deeper insights into what makes this service stand out in the world of sailing adventures.

Q: What inspired you to start Baja Bare Boat Charters?

Mike Madlock: My love for sailing and the sheer beauty of Baja California. I wanted to share this magical place with others in a way that allows them to fully immerse themselves in the experience. There's nothing like the freedom of sailing these waters, and I wanted to make it accessible to everyone.

Q: What sets your service apart from traditional yacht charters?

Mike Madlock: The level of control and customization we offer. With traditional charters, you're often on someone else's schedule and itinerary. With us, you're the captain. You choose where to go, how long to stay, and what adventures to embark upon. It's a true sailor's dream.

Q: How do you ensure the safety and satisfaction of your clients?

Mike Madlock: Safety is paramount. We provide thorough training for those who need it and offer experienced skippers if requested. We maintain our fleet to the highest standards, and our team is always available to assist with any questions or concerns. We want our clients to have peace of mind and make the most of their journey.

Q: What's the most unforgettable experience a client has had with Go Baja Sailing?

Mike Madlock: It's hard to pick just one, but many clients have been blown away by the pristine beauty of Isla Espíritu Santo. The clear waters, the sea lions, the starry nights—it's a place that leaves a lasting impression. We've had clients who return year after year, and that's the best testament to the experience we offer.

Testimonials from Adventurers

To give you a glimpse of the incredible experiences that await you with Baja Bare Boat Charters, here are a few testimonials from adventurers who have explored Baja California with them:

" Had a great time getting my 101/103/104 cert w Go Baja Sailing. The boat was nice, well provisioned, and the spots we went to and anchored in were simply spectacular. The instructor we had, Nick, is a great guy—patient, kind and insightful. I also made new friends on the boat since it’s such a cooperative environment! An awesome way to spend a week of vacation!”- Cynthia Wu

"If you want to have an amazing sailing class experience asks for Iker. He was awesome and had the patience of a saint when it came to teaching people how to sail. He knew how to meet each individual at their level of experience and bring them higher. We did four courses, 101, 103, 104 and 114. There is a lot of reading before you even step foot on board the sailboat. Study, study, study because once you board you are doing your practicals and there’s not a whole lot of time to read the book’s. Although there was a ton of information to absorb it wasn’t overwhelming and we had fun moments to catch our breath and enjoy the vacation" - Canli Mertz

“My 16 year-old son and I just returned home from a week-long trip with Go Baja Sailing. Captain Donna was exceptional! We passed our ASA 101, 103 and 104 tests with relative ease based on Captain Donna's teachings. We learned the foundations of coastal cruising and bareboat chartering and feel confident in putting those lessons to the test. We plan on taking more courses with Go Baja Sailing and will request Captain Donna as our Skipper when we do."- wesleyworld1
