Jabez Strauss Head Captain
Crew Profile
Captain Jabez Strauss -Raised on his parent’s 47’ sailboat, sailing around the world, Jabez makes being on the water feel like home. His American and South African heritage, coupled with his ability to absorb the cultures of the places he’s traveled to, allows Jabez to have a very unique perspective.
Jabez has had a vibrant mix of experiences; working as a ski technician in Aspen, doing the dirty work at construction sites, and farming on an island in the Azores, to name a few. His infectious curiosity and casual confidence motivated him to secure his captain’s license at an early age of 20.
Jabez’s secret talent is being able to throw together a mouth-watering meal as easy as dropping anchor. From Indian curries, to incredible paella, his love for food keeps him experimenting in the kitchen.
His friends will tell you that Jabez has some of the most interesting stories you’ll hear, and you may find yourself lost in conversation with him.
Jabez continues to learn from the world by traveling and collecting new stories, which has brought him to the Caribbean.
