All his life, Joe has loved fishing and officially started his fishing career at just 16 years old on the sportfishing boats out of Newport Beach, California. Joe has extensive experience running boats long-range, including Vikings. In his career to date, Joe credits mentors such as Steve Lassley, Pete Grossbeck, and Jimmy Kingsmill with valued input, knowledge, and advice, helping him to progress his career to where he is today with Galati Yacht Sales.
Before joining Team Galati, Joe worked freelance around the world and amassed a vast network of yachting and sportfish contacts. Having spent nearly a decade living in San Jose Del Cabo, Joe is also fluent in Spanish and extremely knowledgeable about the region.
Over the years, Joe has become known for connecting people and takes immense pride in doing so — often helping to link owners with a crew and managing his own along the way.
