Brian is such a good captain. Everyone is motivated by his standards. People might think sailing is just 24/7 party but without a solid leader, like Brian, you will just be a purposeless cork on the water.
another great video. just so you guys know, every Thursday night me and my friends get together for delos movie night. it's getting quite popular. last Thursday we had 14 people over and now everyone wants to join our delos movie night. thank you guys very much;) Brian, Karyn, Brady, Josie, Babs, Frida and Max.
+Daniel Selby Oh cool Daniel, that's AWESOME! You must send us a picture on FB next time you guys get together, we'd love to see that! Give everyone a hug from us. Fair Winds- Brian
+Daniel Selby hey where is the movie night please don't forget to include me!! google must select this series as the one of the top ten best adventure/sailing videos.
It is 2:20 AM PST I California, USA and I cannot sleep, had a terrible dream, the dream was about my 26 year old Grandson who died in a one in ten million accident. He was training for the Forestry Dept. in the Humboldt Forest (Redwoods Galore) and they were just clearing brush along the small Hwy. and a 120 foot Redwood uproot and landed on him. He was a single Father with a beautiful 4 year old boy with no mother. It helps me to express my feeling in writing, talking, and more. He was a GREAT YOUNG MAN & I miss him so much it hurts. SO; live your life DELOS, you have DEFINITELY made the best choice on when to do this. Love watching, it helps to see the laughter, fun, places I will never see & never know existed. Thank you so much!!
Joe, we're so sorry about your son. He sounds like an incredible young man and we can feel your love for him with every word. We're so sorry that you had trouble sleeping and we hope that our episodes can bring you some joy. Know that we send you all of our love and hope that you continue to find the brightness in the horizon each morning. The Delos Crew and Tribe are here for you whenever you need us and we send you all of the good vibes. Keep going, keep laughing and keep that love inside you. Neptune is proud of you. Much love to you and your family. x
Thank you guys so much for working hard to keep the videos going! This is by far my favorite thing to watch... Every summer, my friends and I take our 27 feet long Swedish folkboats and head from Norway down the Swedish coast. We've been so lucky to borrow our parents boats and do this for a every summer since we were 14! My big dream is to sail around the world and basically do exactly what you're doing on Delos, and the videos really motivates me to fulfill my dream. Stay awesome guys and keep up the good work and beer drinking!
+Christian Hoff Hey Christian, right on that's very cool! We hear that area is so beautiful and we hope to sail Delos there someday. Wishing you the best in pursuing your sailing dreams- Brian
I am watching all the episodes for the second time now. They still make me so happy! Although all of you guys are living kind of different lives today it is really amazing to have all those exiting memories saved for good. Thank you all for sharing the adventure that is/was your lives. :)
I really enjoying seeing the daily life on the boat and the logistics behind feeding and caring for a crew of people. What you may think is boring and mundane is actually not for us landlocked!
Another great video ! I like it when they are long like this one because it is nice to sit back and get lost in your adventure ! I'm so glad you show the good and the bad because it brings depth to your adventure and really fleshes out the reality of it. Thank you SO much for dragging me along and letting me be part of your distant crew. Eric
+Eric McVea Hey Eric, So glad to hear you enjoy and especially about the longer length! We have a few more coming up so stay tuned :) Fair Winds- Brian
Great drone footage. Buddha man is sitting pretty. Frightening to have a Cat dragging towards you. Amazing how much computers are in our lives even in a paradise-like setting. Such a lively happy crew. A splendid video.
Love it. I especially love the fact you show the downs as well as the ups and thats what travel is all about - both the ups and the down go toward making great memories. By the way, that drone was a master stroke purchase - amazing high views make really great viewing. Fair winds, Delos crew.
+Paul .Austin Hey thanks for that Paul, I agree with you. You gotta show both sides. BTW- we just got a new drone that's water proof so now we can be a little more adventurous. Stay tuned :) Fair Winds- Brian
Great job (again) of mixing exotic locales, everyday boat challanges, a bit of story, and a dallop of fun. Knowing that someone is fleshing out this sailing dream/reality makes me smile. And envious. Thanks for sharing Delos with the world.
Hey! Brain it is fun watching you and your teams adventures on the quest. We look forward to more such episodes. Just tell max to take care and get fit soon. I was 767th to watch it and now it is 1609th HIT. Kudos!!! Safe sailing and Fair winds Master.
What a wonderful group of positive people. Your episodes are so much fun they are dangerously addictive. Thanks for all your amazing filming, editing and sensational work. In conclusion addictive inspirational films. Wishing you the best of everything and continued quality of life. We only live once and you are making the most of your lives. Also wishing you health happiness safety and abundance THANKS for uplifting our spirits.
I haven't learned how to leave comments from my cell phone yet, and sometimes forget, in my haste to watch Delos' most recent post, to give a thumbs up. Big thumbs to Josje.
God I just love watching you guys!!! I've been loving how quickly the new episodes are coming. Love seeing the entire crew together!! You guys are awesome!
Thailand has some beautiful islands... thanks for bringing them to us in another great video!! Glad Max is doing better... that would be one of the big concerns when you're far from home... finding good medical care if needed. Safe travels and looking forward to the next video!!
I'm glad Max is ok, and Frida, not all male nurses are rough :) looks like the care was satisfactory and that's what counts. Great video, jealous as usual.
In the new intro alone, you can see the production value increased. You guys are using Patreon the way it was meant to be used! Editing all that footage is a major time sink, and we can see the effort put into each video. Thanks for all the work put into making the best product available, and I'm pumped to see more.
+Joe Wilshire Hey Joe- Thanks so much for the comment. It is definitely a labor of love..... Our amazing patrons have been so good to us- allowing us to continue exploring and sharing it with our videos. Fair Winds and wishing you the best. Brian
Beautiful seas, beautiful skies and as always beautiful ladies! Ya'll are truly luck to be able to do this and I wish these videos would never end. On my down days and after work I always look forward to seeing a new video, or I'll go back and rewatch some of your old ones. Fair winds and Fair seas Delos and her crew!
+TheOneAndOnlyDOC Oh thanks for that! Really appreciate your comment. We have plenty of footage and are still sailing so no end in sight yet :) Fair Winds- Brian
Frida is one of the best narrators of the crew, she speaks with emotion, makes it personal and relatable, and her thoughts are succinctly expressed. She has a very excellent voice and diction suited for narration too. I personally think of all the Delos crew, Frida has been the best narrator of all the videos so far. Love Frida and Max.
Guys, I think this is your best video so far. I especially liked the comment about setting the hook - I was on a two week sailing vacation with a few friends last year and our skipper always backed up with up to 2000 rpm to set the hook until he considered it trustable. We chartered an Orana 44 and sailed along the Turkish coast - it was the best vacation I've ever had. :-) I'm now planning to get the necessary licenses so I can take a more active part (it already caused me to get an OWD). :-) Safe sailing! :-)
+realulli Hey right on! Yeah, getting a good nights sleep for us means making sure the hook is set really good every time. Otherwise every little puff of breeze can cause you to stir. But set it good and sleep good! Fair Winds and wishing you the best getting your licenses sorted out. Brian
Its nice to see how all of you contributes their part, and the kind of confidence each one has with the other.. Your videos somehow give me peace,with all the nice places and chill people. Keep it going.. Big fan from Puerto Rico..
+Emmanuel Ruiz Oh thanks for the super nice comment Emmanual! Hopefully we'll get to visit your awesome country when we get into the Caribbean! Fair Winds- Brian
Ok Guys. You know WE love every episode, but for the second time I felt my heart kinda emotional at how I loved watching this one. It had it all ups and downs and everything in between. You help us to escape for 25 minutes and make us feel like part of the crew. Please give yourselves a hug from us here in a cold UK.
Delos and her Crew, are the best to take a adventure with..Because you get a variety of journeys..Like in this video, we saw the pure excitement when they raised the budda..And then it was the relaxation of cruising that would make anybody jealous..After that is was one of my favorite crew moment, watching three beautiful crew members (not you Brady) make a fruit basket..The journey continued when you all ventured out to that picturesque little Island..But then it happened, Max getting sick was a bummer to see (I hope and pray that he is healthy)..As the journey continued, and Max enjoyed a visit to the clinic. and the crew got relaxed with oral massages.. A big squall or two, hit the Delos and we got a chance to see three men on a Catamaran (hopefully wearing pants) .. As the adventure of the Delos and her crews ends for this week, We can only say : May The Lord Above, Send Down A Dove, With Wings As Sharp As Razors..To Cut The Throats, Of Them There Blokes, That Sell Bad Beer To Sailors...Thank You Delos and Crew.....
Brian and Delos crew. You are an inspiration to all of us who want to do the same. Maybe someday we will cross each other's path in some exotic island. Keep up the good work on the videos, they look very professional.
Long-time listener, first-time caller, soon-to-be donor. Love your videos. And they are very reassuring to my wife who has warmed to the idea of cruising. But here's a serious question: Who on earth would give these amazing videos a thumbs down?
Great video guys. A litle bit of fun with concerning about Dengue fever (that is really dangerous). I know well because I've got once. It's an endless pain in entire body with fever and cold. Thanks God he looks better and now can enjoy the trip. The girls are beaultiful and helping a lot with sailing. Great takes with the drone also.
Another fine video. I love seeing all these places. I've been to most but it's been awhile. I would trade everything and leave tomorrow if I could go do what you guys are doing. Live it up!
You all are the best, keep that wind full in Sail!, cant wait to see 'The Beach' in the next episode , best movie growing up forsure! ;) deff inspired my travels !
I spent 4 nights on Lipe. So so relaxing. As you know it doesn't have the night life in other parts like Pattaya, Bangkok, Phuket.... But I loved Lipe. Hope to go back some day. Good Blog guys. Well done.
I love your videos guys. Your’re an amazing crew. I hope you visit Annapolis one day. It’d be awesome to go to the city dock and see S/V Delos docked there! Maybe one day? I’m blown away how many new crews have joined your video making quest. There’s gotta be five times as many now to choose from as were two years ago. Keep em comin’. You’ve begun something really big! Keep inspiring and entertaining us!
+Sean Murphy Right on Sean, thanks so much for the cool compliment. We really hope to visit the US east coast with Delos. Would be super cool :) I went to the Annapolis Boat Show when i was looking for a cruising boat. What a cool place! I also think it's very cool there are so many sailing channels now. People are getting out there and enjoying life like they should. So awesome to see. Fair Winds! Brian
+David Parkhurst Oh cool, that must have been awesome! We spent a month just north of Diego at Salaman Atoll. We had the whole place to ourselves. AMAZING! Fair Winds- Brian
delos these are some of the best blue water sailing videos I've watched y'all should get a reality tv show on sailing lol.I hope to see you all out someday as im going to buy a yacht .you guys and girls are awesome and Brian im able to learn so much from you're videos thanks James Moseley east Texas. ¥¥.
Makes me really happy to see you guys enjoying yourselves. I hope your adventure...and your fun...never end. BTW, Max's music is really good...bright future for him.
+TitusLivy777 Hey thanks for that, we're just having so much fun doing this and sharing it makes it even better :) Max does some pretty killer tunes doesn't he? Fair Winds! Brian
I always remind myself there's a time lag between when the vid goes up vs. where Delos is now... but then I start the vid and completely forget about it!....lol. Epic vid! Well done Josje!
Y'all are the best! I dream of doing what y'all do or joining the crew! Keep the amazing videos coming. Thailand is one of my favorite places in the world
I just love getting lost, during Friday after work hours, in yours vids. It is journey from reality to dream. Just keep them coming. BTW, please have more of Fridas narrations. Fair winds!
+MRonemill Hey cool, glad to hear you enjoyed! And you'll be happy to know that ep. 60 is narrated by Frida :) It should be up in a week or so. Fair Winds! Brian
Amazing how well filmed and edited your videos are. Network quality! I'd reach out to AWE if I were you. Love all of your videos and wish I was right there with you guys! Thanks Delos!
every clinic has these pictures of smiling handsome doctors, for the first time I think the doctor on the photo is actually the doctor who treated him! nice!
My life dream is to see the ocean and go sailing on a sailboat that's my life dream love the videos.yall have me obsessed with going sailing now keep up the good work
My husband and I enjoy the videos. My husband wants to know if you would like Louisiana seasoning, since that is where we live. He said that he would mail it to you.We both work very hard and your videos are our escape. We would one day, love to do what ya'll are doing. If you are our way, he would love to show ya'll around. Gators, swamps, music, good food and a good time! We have a show here that is called swamp people. Local people. Good people.Laissez les bons temps rouler!
+dee dee maynard Oh right on, Louisiana seasoning would be soooo sweet! It would be awesome to give the South Africans here a little taste of America :) Just email us at svdelos53@gmail.com and we can give you the address of the marina we'll be at in Cape Town. Fair Winds! Brian
watching your videos Delos crew just makes me want to go sailing even more I've never been sailing on the ocean the I've came to it was a week long trip on my dad's old ship he was on when he was in the Navy the ship was called cv-66 uss America an aircraft carrier now I'm in Kentucky a long way from the ocean but it just keeps calling me back
What a pleasure to watch yet another adventure :) Safe travels! And if you decide on sailing up to Europe, we'd be happy to invite you for a beer or 1008 in the Netherlands!
+Two aboard Tuuli Ha Ha, very cool! Would love to share a few cold ones when we make it to the Netherlands. Definitely high on our list. Fair Winds! Brian
Thanks for another great episode! 4 years ago i slashed my foot open on some coral near Ko Lipe, I made it to the island in a borrowed kayak and (at the time) the only medical "clinic" did not have any anaesthetic, or they were saving it for someone in more serious condition than myself....Before i could protest they were stitching up my foot au natural and the nurses were laughing at me as i turned grey and almost passed out.....I held my breath when Max went in, however i quickly noted that a new clinic was in evidence....I hope everything turned out ok! you guys rock! its inspiring....Peace out from Taos, NM!
+elrito1 Oh man, that sounds like an experience..... Ko Lipe has certainly grown up since then and the clinic really catered to tourists so all was well with Max. Fair Winds and thanks so much for watching! Peace and Love from Delos in Botswana.
another amazing video exploring hidden places.. given by the chance of that short period of time we live on this planet..thnank u for sharing with us and we can escape mentally from our miserable lifes.. hope one day i do the same.. take care Delos:)
Fair winds and safe voyages to all the Delos crew! Hope Max is getting better and I look forward to watching your adventures unfold on my desktop. Question: When you're anchoring, do you ever find yourself setting it by hand? Seeing that you have plenty of dive gear and skilled divers, it's a question I often wonder.
+Chaiyz Brown We always set and retrieve the main anchor with the windlass. Mostly due to the weight. It's about 40lbs for the anchor but 100Meters of chain weighs almost 500KG or so! Sometimes if we set the stern anchor it's by hand though as it's much lighter. Oh yeah, well everyone is pretty good but for some reason Brady seems to come up with some delicious concoctions on a pretty regular basis. Fair Winds- Brian
Nice to see more of everyday life on the boat. Great video as usual. Once there were 4 now there are 3 (from Patreon video). Any chance we can have a general comment, will miss Josje! It's a little hard viewing our dream world thru you and then the reality of losing a core member. Best wishes.
+number9express It is on the website svdelos.com/2015/11/rama-bound-by-josje/ I had to read it a couple of times before it started to make sense. I think it has a lot to do with the way the universe lined up her every need with the yacht delivery job. That is impressive stuff! And even living in paradise gets to be routine after a while. Very brave to toss everything and start over again in faith that you will get what you need. Much respect Josje!!!
UTI ON A SAILBOAT! We thought we'd be the only one making a video on this! haha, it's coming up on our return trip videos. Kate was in such pain and we were at an isolated anchorage we had to hail the coast guard for assistance. We laughed saying we would name the video UTI on a sailboat ha. cheers guys!
+Wicked Salty Ohhhh dude, that's really rough. UTI's are no fun, especially on a sailboat. Now we carry some Sulfa-Trimeth in the med kit..... Fair Winds guys! Brian
+SV Delos Sailing We were back in the states ICW too, nothing like the feeling of being in a random country. Max must have been bugging out. Gave a good perspective on getting sick or ill on a boat.
Clinic seemed well stocked and professional. Curious how much that visit cost him? In the USA, a visit like that to a hospital emergency room might be several thousand usd if you had no insurance. Just to walk in its over 500 usd. As far as someone mentioned in the comments about overuse of antibiotics.... well when you just had dengue fever and now a uti which can turn in to septic shock, I say go for it. His immunity is down already. Might as well help it kick the infection. Its a great video for sure. But each and every one is great. Living the dream for sure.
I seem to remember it being in the range of $30.00 US plus another $10 for the antibiotics. And this was at the "private" clinic on the island. Health care is remarkably cheap in most places in the world we've found. And modern as well. Fair Winds! Brian
Sailing SV Delos wow that's a great deal! thanks for the quick reply. I'm in the medical profession for over 30 years and appreciate a good value. US is to expensive. fair winds.
USA Health system is coupate and very bad it cost 1500$ at least to get a ampulance car . but if u cauclated it and the trip wages and every thing does not cost more than 200$ per trip . yet they overcharge becaus they can . there is no Laws or competion to prevent them . und its sames with the recents politcal changes it will only get worse .
Brian is such a good captain. Everyone is motivated by his standards. People might think sailing is just 24/7 party but without a solid leader, like Brian, you will just be a purposeless cork on the water.
another great video. just so you guys know, every Thursday night me and my friends get together for delos movie night. it's getting quite popular. last Thursday we had 14 people over and now everyone wants to join our delos movie night. thank you guys very much;) Brian, Karyn, Brady, Josie, Babs, Frida and Max.
+Daniel Selby Oh cool Daniel, that's AWESOME! You must send us a picture on FB next time you guys get together, we'd love to see that! Give everyone a hug from us. Fair Winds- Brian
+SV Delos Sailing That is cool! +Daniel Selby!! I usually ask my friends one at a time to watch Delos' videos with me.
+Daniel Selby hey where is the movie night please don't forget to include me!! google must select this series as the one of the top ten best adventure/sailing videos.
+SuperVonci movie night is in boise idaho
Awesome! im another Boise watcher
Delos from the beginning for the 4th time and every time it makes me just as happy!!
It is 2:20 AM PST I California, USA and I cannot sleep, had a terrible dream, the dream was about my 26 year old Grandson who died in a one in ten million accident. He was training for the Forestry Dept. in the Humboldt Forest (Redwoods Galore) and they were just clearing brush along the small Hwy. and a 120 foot Redwood uproot and landed on him. He was a single Father with a beautiful 4 year old boy with no mother. It helps me to express my feeling in writing, talking, and more. He was a GREAT YOUNG MAN & I miss him so much it hurts. SO; live your life DELOS, you have DEFINITELY made the best choice on when to do this. Love watching, it helps to see the laughter, fun, places I will never see & never know existed. Thank you so much!!
Joe, we're so sorry about your son. He sounds like an incredible young man and we can feel your love for him with every word. We're so sorry that you had trouble sleeping and we hope that our episodes can bring you some joy. Know that we send you all of our love and hope that you continue to find the brightness in the horizon each morning. The Delos Crew and Tribe are here for you whenever you need us and we send you all of the good vibes. Keep going, keep laughing and keep that love inside you. Neptune is proud of you.

I really enjoying seeing the daily life on the boat and the logistics behind feeding and caring for a crew of people. What you may think is boring and mundane is actually not for us landlocked!
Thanks for letting me cruise along with you guys , I enjoyed it immensely just watching you young people enjoying yourselves.
Another great video !
I like it when they are long like this one because it is nice to sit back and get lost in your adventure !
I'm so glad you show the good and the bad because it brings depth to your adventure and really fleshes out the reality of it.
Thank you SO much for dragging me along and letting me be part of your distant crew.
Eric
+Eric McVea Hey Eric, So glad to hear you enjoy and especially about the longer length! We have a few more coming up so stay tuned :) Fair Winds- Brian
Wonderful to see you all have such positive and supportive attitudes towards Max when he was sick.
Great drone footage. Buddha man is sitting pretty. Frightening to have a Cat dragging towards you. Amazing how much computers are in our lives even in a paradise-like setting. Such a lively happy crew. A splendid video.
Never ever say the words "Well it can't get any worse than this" Mother nature will prove you wrong every time. Great videos!
+Erich Brann Ha Ha very true my friend, very true.....
You keep finding such wonderful crew, OMG. In sickness or health, always cool. Fair winds and lots of love to you all.
Love it. I especially love the fact you show the downs as well as the ups and thats what travel is all about - both the ups and the down go toward making great memories.
By the way, that drone was a master stroke purchase - amazing high views make really great viewing. Fair winds, Delos crew.
+Paul .Austin Hey thanks for that Paul, I agree with you. You gotta show both sides. BTW- we just got a new drone that's water proof so now we can be a little more adventurous. Stay tuned :) Fair Winds- Brian
Love the channel, great mental escape. Great Crew, can not imagine more than 2 people I'd spend so much time in tight quarters.
I'm so addicted when waiting for new videos i have to go back and watch others.
Great job (again) of mixing exotic locales, everyday boat challanges, a bit of story, and a dallop of fun. Knowing that someone is fleshing out this sailing dream/reality makes me smile. And envious. Thanks for sharing Delos with the world.
+Hans Schweikert Thanks Hans, it's our pleasure to share and thanks for letting us know you enjoyed :) Fair Winds- Brian
Hey! Brain it is fun watching you and your teams adventures on the quest. We look forward to more such episodes. Just tell max to take care and get fit soon. I was 767th to watch it and now it is 1609th HIT. Kudos!!!
Safe sailing and Fair winds Master.
I personally play games and watch youtubers that play games but there is just something about this channel that I love. Keep up the great work!!!!!
+Andreas Brunings Right on man, glad to hear that :) Fair Winds- Brian

Great video again you guys rock. Watched your Copenhagen talk the other day, great stuff.
I really love the episodes where this shows us some sailing tricks and knowledge.
There's nothing better than watching you guy have a blast after a long day. I just imagine myself there and get lost for 20 mins at a time
I'm glad Max is ok, and Frida, not all male nurses are rough :) looks like the care was satisfactory and that's what counts. Great video, jealous as usual.

+Jim Holt Nice Jim, love it! Thanks so much. We could all use a razor winged dove to punish those selling tainted beer :)
Another great video guys...you still continue to be our inspiration to seek new horizons. Stay well and smooth sailing. Cheers.
Brian and Delos crew. You are an inspiration to all of us who want to do the same. Maybe someday we will cross each other's path in some exotic island. Keep up the good work on the videos, they look very professional.
+knight7866 Hey thanks for that, hope we have a chance to cross paths as well! Fair Winds- Brian
Thanks for another fine video. Always love to see Delos under sail, she's such a beauty.
Long-time listener, first-time caller, soon-to-be donor. Love your videos. And they are very reassuring to my wife who has warmed to the idea of cruising.
But here's a serious question: Who on earth would give these amazing videos a thumbs down?
+Otter InBham Ha Ha, thanks for that Otter. Appreciate your comment and wishing you and your wife the best in your cruising future. Fair Winds- Brian
Glad you are well Max. Excellent video - looking forward to more!
Great video guys. A litle bit of fun with concerning about Dengue fever (that is really dangerous). I know well because I've got once. It's an endless pain in entire body with fever and cold. Thanks God he looks better and now can enjoy the trip. The girls are beaultiful and helping a lot with sailing. Great takes with the drone also.
Your vids also make me feel a little bit like a dreamer.
Another fine video. I love seeing all these places. I've been to most but it's been awhile. I would trade everything and leave tomorrow if I could go do what you guys are doing. Live it up!
You all are the best, keep that wind full in Sail!, cant wait to see 'The Beach' in the next episode , best movie growing up forsure! ;) deff inspired my travels !
27:38 - rewind and remind, Braidster, like it like your lunch makin sweet lady singin and swingin, keep it up, sailor
I spent 4 nights on Lipe. So so relaxing.
As you know it doesn't have the night life in other parts like Pattaya, Bangkok, Phuket....
But I loved Lipe. Hope to go back some day.
Good Blog guys.
Well done.
I love your videos guys. Your’re an amazing crew. I hope you visit Annapolis one day. It’d be awesome to go to the city dock and see S/V Delos docked there! Maybe one day? I’m blown away how many new crews have joined your video making quest. There’s gotta be five times as many now to choose from as were two years ago. Keep em comin’. You’ve begun something really big! Keep inspiring and entertaining us!
+Sean Murphy Right on Sean, thanks so much for the cool compliment. We really hope to visit the US east coast with Delos. Would be super cool :) I went to the Annapolis Boat Show when i was looking for a cruising boat. What a cool place! I also think it's very cool there are so many sailing channels now. People are getting out there and enjoying life like they should. So awesome to see. Fair Winds! Brian
You have the best crew's and the best videos. I was stationed at Diego Garcia a British Territory in the Indian Ocean for a year. Safe journey.
+David Parkhurst Oh cool, that must have been awesome! We spent a month just north of Diego at Salaman Atoll. We had the whole place to ourselves. AMAZING! Fair Winds- Brian
Yes. another awesome video can't wait for the next one to come out. What an awesome and amazing life you guys live. So stoked to see more
Great video and very nice editing. Glad to see Max looking like at the towards the end of the video he was feeling a little better. Hope all is well.
This will always be my favourite Delos crew.
delos these are some of the best blue water sailing videos I've watched y'all should get a reality tv show on sailing lol.I hope to see you all out someday as im going to buy a yacht .you guys and girls are awesome and Brian im able to learn so much from you're videos thanks James Moseley east Texas. ¥¥.
Reminds me of my snow skiing days. We'd stop for provisions and the liquor bill would be 3 times that of the food bill!!
Makes me really happy to see you guys enjoying yourselves. I hope your adventure...and your fun...never end. BTW, Max's music is really good...bright future for him.
+TitusLivy777 Hey thanks for that, we're just having so much fun doing this and sharing it makes it even better :) Max does some pretty killer tunes doesn't he? Fair Winds! Brian
What an incredible life experience to have had to be on that boat with that crew during that time must’ve been exquisitely wonderful.
I always remind myself there's a time lag between when the vid goes up vs. where Delos is now... but then I start the vid and completely forget about it!....lol.
Epic vid! Well done Josje!
Just watched a video about a couple sailing around the world in 1952, it's on oldmotherpopcorn channel, it's the best sailing video you will ever see.
Thanks again guys for making my night shift go by! Love the videos!
i watch many sailing adventures in ytube but delos is unique specially those four girls they are really entertaining
Such a joyful bunch and a pleasure to watch Look forward to seeing you in South Africa again 🇿🇦
Y'all are the best! I dream of doing what y'all do or joining the crew! Keep the amazing videos coming. Thailand is one of my favorite places in the world

This has to be my favorite crew! Love Delos!
Amazing how well filmed and edited your videos are. Network quality! I'd reach out to AWE if I were you. Love all of your videos and wish I was right there with you guys! Thanks Delos!
+Ryan Flynn Hey Ryan, thanks for that! Very nice comment. Fair Winds and thanks for watching :) Brian
every clinic has these pictures of smiling handsome doctors, for the first time I think the doctor on the photo is actually the doctor who treated him! nice!

Cheers from Boston mass!!! These just keep getting better and better! You guys are the shit
My husband and I enjoy the videos. My husband wants to know if you would like Louisiana seasoning, since that is where we live. He said that he would mail it to you.We both work very hard and your videos are our escape. We would one day, love to do what ya'll are doing. If you are our way, he would love to show ya'll around. Gators, swamps, music, good food and a good time! We have a show here that is called swamp people. Local people. Good people.Laissez les bons temps rouler!
+dee dee maynard Oh right on, Louisiana seasoning would be soooo sweet! It would be awesome to give the South Africans here a little taste of America :) Just email us at svdelos53@gmail.com and we can give you the address of the marina we'll be at in Cape Town. Fair Winds! Brian
watching your videos Delos crew just makes me want to go sailing even more I've never been sailing on the ocean the I've came to it was a week long trip on my dad's old ship he was on when he was in the Navy the ship was called cv-66 uss America an aircraft carrier now I'm in Kentucky a long way from the ocean but it just keeps calling me back

What a pleasure to watch yet another adventure :) Safe travels! And if you decide on sailing up to Europe, we'd be happy to invite you for a beer or 1008 in the Netherlands!
+Two aboard Tuuli Ha Ha, very cool! Would love to share a few cold ones when we make it to the Netherlands. Definitely high on our list. Fair Winds! Brian
i miss you guys even after 7 years
I love ❤ the Swedish English accent of the gal of course 😊 I must have Norman blood from way back in crusades times
Make Frida laugh as much as possible, thank you
Frida is hilarious
the beach was the first thing I thought of when you said you were going into thai, that's so fuggin awesome
I could Watch this ALL Day!! Oh wait, I DID just watch all day!!!
Thanks for another great episode! 4 years ago i slashed my foot open on some coral near Ko Lipe, I made it to the island in a borrowed kayak and (at the time) the only medical "clinic" did not have any anaesthetic, or they were saving it for someone in more serious condition than myself....Before i could protest they were stitching up my foot au natural and the nurses were laughing at me as i turned grey and almost passed out.....I held my breath when Max went in, however i quickly noted that a new clinic was in evidence....I hope everything turned out ok! you guys rock! its inspiring....Peace out from Taos, NM!
+elrito1 Oh man, that sounds like an experience..... Ko Lipe has certainly grown up since then and the clinic really catered to tourists so all was well with Max. Fair Winds and thanks so much for watching! Peace and Love from Delos in Botswana.
+SV Delos Sailing Wow, real landlubbers now! Enjoy Africa to the fullest and travel safe.....What direction are you headed this winter?
very nice
thank you all of friends
You had me at "New from S.V. Delos"! Always good!
I’ve missed Josie and Brady. Good to see you back.
Brady have now another girlfriend but really what does he see in her, o m g, really, she is in a shadow far away from Josje.
another amazing video exploring hidden places.. given by the chance of that short period of time we live on this planet..thnank u for sharing with us and we can escape mentally from our miserable lifes.. hope one day i do the same.. take care Delos:)
Fair winds and safe voyages to all the Delos crew! Hope Max is getting better and I look forward to watching your adventures unfold on my desktop. Question: When you're anchoring, do you ever find yourself setting it by hand? Seeing that you have plenty of dive gear and skilled divers, it's a question I often wonder.
+Chaiyz Brown Oh, and another quick one. Who's the best cook onboard?
+Chaiyz Brown We always set and retrieve the main anchor with the windlass. Mostly due to the weight. It's about 40lbs for the anchor but 100Meters of chain weighs almost 500KG or so! Sometimes if we set the stern anchor it's by hand though as it's much lighter. Oh yeah, well everyone is pretty good but for some reason Brady seems to come up with some delicious concoctions on a pretty regular basis. Fair Winds- Brian
Nice to see more of everyday life on the boat. Great video as usual. Once there were 4 now there are 3 (from Patreon video). Any chance we can have a general comment, will miss Josje! It's a little hard viewing our dream world thru you and then the reality of losing a core member. Best wishes.
+number9express It is on the website svdelos.com/2015/11/rama-bound-by-josje/ I had to read it a couple of times before it started to make sense. I think it has a lot to do with the way the universe lined up her every need with the yacht delivery job. That is impressive stuff! And even living in paradise gets to be routine after a while. Very brave to toss everything and start over again in faith that you will get what you need. Much respect Josje!!!
UTI ON A SAILBOAT! We thought we'd be the only one making a video on this! haha, it's coming up on our return trip videos. Kate was in such pain and we were at an isolated anchorage we had to hail the coast guard for assistance. We laughed saying we would name the video UTI on a sailboat ha. cheers guys!
+Wicked Salty Ohhhh dude, that's really rough. UTI's are no fun, especially on a sailboat. Now we carry some Sulfa-Trimeth in the med kit..... Fair Winds guys! Brian
+SV Delos Sailing We were back in the states ICW too, nothing like the feeling of being in a random country. Max must have been bugging out. Gave a good perspective on getting sick or ill on a boat.
You've got subtitles, REAL subtitles and not the auto kind. Thankyou, my hearing sucks, too many rock concerts.
+GreenJelloHell Awesome man, glad you liked them! It took a while to type it all in but really worth it. Fair Winds! Brian
+GreenJelloHell Yea man, we typed them in ourselves. Took a bit of time but really worth it. Fair Winds, and thanks for watching :) Brian
+GreenJelloHell Yea man, we typed them in ourselves. Took a bit of time but really worth it. Fair Winds, and thanks for watching :) Brian
+GreenJelloHell Yea man, we typed them in ourselves. Took a bit of time but really worth it. Fair Winds, and thanks for watching :) Brian
These vids make me feel great.
Brian, do you ever use flopper stoppers for the rolling at anchorage?
Clinic seemed well stocked and professional. Curious how much that visit cost him? In the USA, a visit like that to a hospital emergency room might be several thousand usd if you had no insurance. Just to walk in its over 500 usd. As far as someone mentioned in the comments about overuse of antibiotics.... well when you just had dengue fever and now a uti which can turn in to septic shock, I say go for it. His immunity is down already. Might as well help it kick the infection.
Its a great video for sure. But each and every one is great. Living the dream for sure.
I seem to remember it being in the range of $30.00 US plus another $10 for the antibiotics. And this was at the "private" clinic on the island. Health care is remarkably cheap in most places in the world we've found. And modern as well. Fair Winds! Brian
Sailing SV Delos wow that's a great deal! thanks for the quick reply. I'm in the medical profession for over 30 years and appreciate a good value. US is to expensive. fair winds.
USA Health system is coupate and very bad it cost 1500$ at least to get a ampulance car . but if u cauclated it and the trip wages and every thing does not cost more than 200$ per trip . yet they overcharge becaus they can . there is no Laws or competion to prevent them . und its sames with the recents politcal changes it will only get worse .
Sailing SV Delos la
can't stop watching nice job guys
