STUCK ABOARD for 5 days 💨⚓⛵ GALES in the Bahamas! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 274
Вставка
- Опубліковано 24 вер 2024
- What do you do stuck onboard for 5 days as your house is beaten by the wind and waves? As sailors we live and die by the weather. Every morning wake up, make some coffee, then check the weather. Sometimes the forecast is nice and we can stay put, but sometimes we gotta move our house to somewhere with better protection. In this episode we decide to move Delos to a new island to seek better protection. We have a fantastic sail set the hook, and begin exploring the amazing uninhabited island of Buena Vista in the remote Ragged Islands of the Bahamas. Soon the wind starts to kick up and we get pinned onboard for 5 days of terrible wind and weather!
Sending much love to everyone out there. XXOO- Brian, Kazza, and The Little Nugget

As a parents of 3 children (6,4 and 1 y/o) who also sail our 38' boat on weekends. My wife and I are amazed at your ability to juggle sailing, filming and parenting. We always find it difficult to juggle sailing and parenting at the same time. If you decide to head into the great lakes, we would love to show you around our part of the world.
Wind blowing through pine needles has got to be one of the best sounds in the world, right up there with gentle waves slapping the hull.
I'm a 70 yo Aussie from Canowindra in NSW, Australia. Had a trailer sailor for a number of years - mainly cruised the inland waterways near Sydney. Also some blue water cruises on bigger yachts in SW Western Australia. I thought my sailing days were over then I discovered Delos. Have loved the videos and all the different crew you've had on board and have particularly enjoyed the two of you and the beautiful little Nugget! Both of you such wonderful parents and Kazza - am amazed at how flat your Mummy tummy is. Brian - love watching you fix stuff and the way you skipper Delos and care for your crew. I'm up to episode 274 - nearly caught up and wish you well with your family on the sea. Keep sailing - love you guys....Namaste
Brian is not only an amazing sailor but also a perfect pilot.
Brain, Kaza and Nugget, it is a real treat watching your videos. It is incredible that you have put so much technology into your boat. How is your internet satellite working out and what is your next project... Be safe and keep making those spectacular videos.
Awww another amaze balls episode mates. Shared your tears Kazza. Cap’n Breeyawn - “Rum and coke, chips, salsa, baby, wife, sunset.” Thank you guys for reminding me that I AM NOT STUCK here on land these past 6 months from a botched foot surgery, that it’s only work and perseverance that stand between me and a return to Living the Dream. All the best, fair winds always ⛵️🤙🏽🍻
Dear Sailer of the SV Delos, however the world is on fire, you manage every week to share your dreams and giving ppl hope. Life can be so simple. TYSM....with kind regards, Pieter
It's a joy to see you as a family appreciating your minute-by-minute experiences as well your love of your shifting environment.
I can relate... flying a drone on a windy day over water (and especially landing it) is nerve wracking! Nobody who watches these beauty shots of boats underway knows how hard they are to film successfully until they've tried it. And sometimes there's no beach you can crash it into as a last resort. Incredible work, Brian!
Again I cannot express the pure joy I receive from watching your beautiful lifestyle. I yearn for the sailing life. Perhaps some day.
Delos crew #1. I miss your brother!
Hi guys, I`m Danny, I've been watching your videos for a few days now, congrats on your newest crew member! What an amazing channel you have, can't get enough!
Just admire how great a Dad you are!
Sierra is so sweet. She's got teeth! How fun and exciting to see her grow so quickly. Before you know it she'll be running around deck and jumping in the water.
What an incredible beach! And love the calm before the storm.
Sierra is going so fast. What a bundle of joy!❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have been watching you guys for about 8 months, and love you guys and Nugget, she is so chill. I compare your lifestyle with others around me and it makes me sad. Your cinematographer is the best. Safe travels and say hello to Brady for me😘 I live in Santa Barbara, Calif. If you are ever in my area please let me know. I had a 23ft. Dutch Craft in Florida for 5 years am now living vicariously through you guys. Love Glenda
Such a good baby. She never cries.
Brian talks with Sierra exactly as I spoke to my two boys, just as if she were already an adult, just without information about the current situation. They are both graduated from college and I can tell you that treating your baby like a tiny adult really pays off. They sort of grow into it.
You talking to your daughter like a grownup is great. She is going to be sharp as a tack.
Now this is reality! So much better than the scrap on tv!!! Thank you so much!!!
Those few minutes of video on the beach with the fire...boy did the whole vibe of the timeline of Delos come through. Been watching for about 5 years now, and have seen all of the videos...but those few minutes...they captured everything. Magic. The old party vibe, many of us remember the beach fires of old...and the transition to the new, family of 3, watching the sunset in a beautiful remote anchorage.
I can see why it hit Karen the way it did. It was indeed a moment.
Brian/Kazaa... absolutely loved your sunset beach fire and could almost feel the joy you guys must have felt! Thank you for sharing these special moments. The Delos crew may have gotten smaller but the memories you are making, and sharing, are huge!
Greetings mom and dad how about that baby, we here just can't get over just how sweet that child is and how she seems to go with the boat life flow with eyes " WIDE OPEN". Just wanted to say a quick high, stay safe and thank you again for showing us there can be a life away from the madness one just has to choose it.
You are so blessed to able to spend all that time with the nugget. Their only young once. Also I can't believe it's been 10 years since I started watching your vids.
I love your guys's video and editing Style you guys make great videos hope you guys are well and safe looking forward to see more still can't get over moonhole my favourite one yet
I'm new to the channel and your family and I come to you from Saluda, North Carolina and you are amazing!! I have watched about 4 videos and you guys have just one amazing adventures after another and I truly thank you for allowing me to tag along with you thru this media. And I think that you two have something very special between the 2 of you, I mean its not everyday that you get to see the people that made an Angel on earth... That is the most beautiful little one that I have ever seen. Congratulations. You are an extremely beautiful family and we will be praying for your love and saftey in your many adventures in your life. Have a great one
Looks like such a beautiful area! The blues, turquoise, greens are stunning.
I can't say this too many times how your videos definitely make me forget about the Covid and other upset going on in the world today.
Beach, fire, chips dip, cocktail, baby and wife(friend)...perfect!
Ur baby Sierra is super cute...
Lots of love ... N god bless her lots of health,happiness n prosperity
Your best episode yet !!! I love the way you calmly talk to Sierra and tell her what you're doing and why.... she will be an able-bodied deckhand in no time... Cheers from landlocked Wisconsin....
I'm really starting to like the direction of your recent videos...they are more intimate and personable....I really get a fealing of what's it's like to be out there on a loney deserted island watching your daily activites just the three of you...OH and Sierra is getting so cute....she looks like a perfect blend of both Kazza and Brian....I also like the dialog between Brian and Sierra....I used to explain things to my little boy (when he was a baby) in much the same way....like he understands me completely...no matter how complex the conversation...
Chips, salsa, beer, wife, baby, and sunset on a private island....you do indeed have everything you could ever need, and something money could never buy. So happy for you guys!
THAT IS IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LISA IT IS TIME!!!! NINJA TRAINING TIME!!!!! hehe miss you hehe let the baby NINJA BEAST lessons begin !!!
Love Brian talking to nugget as an adult no baby talk that’s great, also use lots of Swedish with her, I had been shown that later in life problem solving skills are better in bilingual crib babies
There is so much to learn when you sail seems never ending.
Absolutely love the way Brian is talking to Sierra about the anchor, explaining about chains and function; that is SO much better than oo-goo-ga baby talk (though you need some of each).
Great hack on the drone handle!!!! No more prop clip injuries!!! Sierra is growing so fast so cute!!! Sail on Delos❤️👍⛵️😎
The anchor shot give me chills
Hey guys, Bahamian from Exuma here. That camp on Buenavista Cay was the home of a Ragged Island man named Edward Lockhart, he rode out Hurricane Irma at the camp alone back in Sept 2017. I'm assuming that he hasn't returned since being rescued off the cay a week after Irma passed. This story did actually get some international attention.
That’s cool. I had to look it up. I was thinking the camp looked much older but I was wrong. Found an article about it
thenassauguardian.com/2017/09/13/man-78-survived-irma-alone-on-cay/
Cool information. Damn you can find info on almost any place on earth on the web.
He actually did return, he had dinner with us on board, in 2018 he had a stroke and had to leave the island. He still resides in Nassau. He is related to the Lockharts in Duncantown. He loved Buena Vista and always welcomed cruisers. We loved listening to his stories, have him make us conch salad, and build a fire to share a steak with him!
Cool story, glad he’s been rescued
Love that whenever Delos find something unexplained but probably having a story behind it - you can look in the comments and someone will have filled it in :-)!
Best minute of the episode: @10.40-11.40. So good to know that the simple things bring tears of joy!
oh....that first drone shot.
watching that big busty sail filling up and dragging delos along with it.
lovely.
You are living the life! Imagine living on a remote island and being self sufficient with your loved ones around you.
What a beautiful way to experience life! Thank you for sharing your amazing journey with us. Cheers!
very cool! fire on beach & sun going down....awesome!!
That baby with her big eyes and quick smile, has captured my heart. Thanks for the vids guys
What a life you live. So great to see you all happy and healthy!
Momma and baby were so sweet, good job guys!
Videos are so much better with Brian on the boat
Hey Liser! Nice Storm video everyone!!
what beautiful home anchorages !....blue blue and blue ....and then....snarly wind wind and wind !
Another great video! What an incredible life you guys have built.
I’m 65 years old from Missouri and you have given me and your family the whole crew of Delos for many years the greatest enjoyment of being somewhere that I could never have gone in my life thank you keep up one of the work and the good parenting that you two are to that beautiful child
Crazy how people give thumbs down... these peaks into beautiful place are awesome and great full to see.. im jealous.
He is such a good dad. Like how you explain things to the baby.
I've never seen an anchor drop shot like that. Superb.
That anchor shot is next level.
Filming the anchor dropping and the drone shots are amazing. Glad you didn't loose your drone.
Brian, I love love love, the way you talk to Sierra xx
Talk to them like they are adults and they will grow up like adults. Keep up the good work and enjoy your baby. They get big before you know it.
bert steen I completely agree.
@@bertsteen2014 exaaaactly 😁
rum and coke... chips...salsa...baby...wife...sunset!!!!!! Oh man!
I was thinking the same when He said that , what a peaceful , happy , independent life they have , no trouble of the the life on Land , No Covid19 , No protests raging on a daily basis , Just Nature and love for the 3 of them .
Sweet. What more could you want is spot on Brian. Special days with your loved ones.
Your little family is truly living
It is hard not to love you guys!
Those casuarina trees sound so creepy in the wind. What a beautiful spot. Epic sunset followed by gales. Yep that's sailing🤣🌬⛵😎🌴
You guys inspired us! And today we bought our first boat ever, Catalina 34 and my amazing and totally confident Wife( Captain for real) motored is to our slip. Had a total leak and I thought we were gonna sink but Jackie and our son Jared that has a 25 Boat found it and stopped it. You are all so amazing and thanks for the continued motivation.
Brian, I love that you explain exactly what’s happening to little Nugget, home schooling at its finest! Loved the sunset.. you made me cry when you cried Kazza. ❣️
Loved the anchor cam. That cover photo is a great one of Kazza and the nugget. That hair in the wind looks like an ad for some kind of hair products!
Walking on the beach takes on a whole new meaning when arriving by boat and you need a break from the motion of the ocean. Love the edit and music
No doubt you’re already a good father..having normal conversations with our young is a great practice... (explanation of how anchors work❤️). And I love the way kassa says “look at that beach👌🏽😂
Feels like holidays when I'm watching your videos
So cool for sharing the stress of the drone. I have wondered a lot about the drone system you use with Delos. This episode featured that interest I have had. Thank you! Go Nugget!
Sweet to hear Kazza almost get teary eyed talking about the wonderful sunset you 3 were experiencing. Thank you for sharing this with us, so great even if just through video.
Wow, Sierra would be the PERFECT new Gerber baby. She an absolutely beautiful child. You dun good, you two!
Man,! You kids are amazing. Having a baby and teaching her this way of life is, well outstanding!! Long live mamma and papa ❤❤❤❤❤
The opening scene with the little nugget looking straight at camera, I could definitely see Trautman in her face... Uncle Brady even with that cheeky grin. I love it when our kids smiles do that.
I don’t think I could ever tire of seeing water that colour either. 😍
I love how the low-fi jazz in the beginning is closed captioned as "Feelgood Music"
i was in sort of a mood when i started this episode. this was a super well put together slice of life on Delos that peeled the mood right off of me. thank you!
How i wish i could travel like you guys
Isn't that amazing how that happens watching an episode of Delos. I'm homeless an their vids get me thru so terrible days an give me a happy feeling no matter what... wish I could sail somewhere....
Toujours aussi beau ce petit bateau qui vogue au vent.
Found your channel watching Exploring Alternatives. I love your story and have subscribed. Lovely video. Beautiful family. What a beautiful life.
It really warms my heart to see how grateful you are for each other and what you have. Love it 💕☀
love the videos. The Drone video skills are as usual sweet. How about an update video on Brady and Blue

Drone shots of Delos sailing was awesome!!
Brian, you can change your home point to the controller, that way it always comes back to you when at sea. I film on a lake so I have a similar problem when flying to far, it tries to go back to where I was floating before.
Guys, you're honestly a really good help in these hard times. I've been struggling with kind of a long and hard depression, and now with the pandemic it's even worse. But watching you guys really helps. And man, I'm so impressed that you're still making so good stuff even though it's just you two and a nugg 😁👏
Kazza, your teary emotion came from a grateful heart. How cool, tks for sharing the moment!
One more week of cool Videos , So cool to watch you guys living this dream . The happiness from your faces is so remarkable,You are all so happy and a great family sailing is the way to live that's for sure. Much love right back at you Brian, Kazza , and of course the little Nugget .I can't wait until the next Video for sure. Keep living your dream. God Bless you .
Wonderful. Wonderful. Wonderful.
Anchor shot was great.
That blow was pretty intense! Thanks for another great episode! I always seem to have a smile on my face watching each new chapter in your lives!!!! The positivity, or maybe lack of negativity is just what we all need! Thanks!
Thanks for posting it. Always enjoy the plethora of knowledge I acquire just from simply tagging along.
fire on the beach at sunset....worth all the hard work
Too funny cool at 16:27 :-) Here in the Channel Islands area (Santa Barbara California USA) it blows like that every day and easily 40 up to 60 knots at the island channels and even 80 knots every year in our famous Santa Ana winds. We have some of the most consistent heavy weather sailing in the world to test your boat and crew before heading out on a long cruise (or just to live and sail all year like the locals do). Nice to see some whitecaps and that you two are prepared and take everything seriously :-)
I don't fly drones but found this useful info on another site from a viewer that obviously does...
Tips for taking off from a moving object such as a boat...
1. Never take off in P-MODE... always use A-MODE. A-MODE ignores the GPS and the aircraft will not try to hold it's position in space. It will only try to maintain altitude.
2. Hold on to the landing gear tight while starting the takeoff sequence and slowly release pressure from your hands once you know the aircraft is stable. Your body is strong enough to overcome all the thrust from the motors if it were to correct for boat movement. This is especially important if you forget to put it in A-MODE.
3. Set the "Home Point" to be the controller and NOT where you take off (DJI GO APP). This is critical!! If you don't do this, and the boat is underway, you will surely lose your drone because if you lose signal it will start to fly away from you and go back to the home point which is now a mile behind you. You must press the update home point regularly.
4. When landing, fly the aircraft as close as possible to the person catching it and slightly above their head. Have them reach up and grab the landing gear firmly and stiffen their arms to prevent any corrective actions by the aircraft. Remember, your arms have more power than the aircraft so don't be afraid of it or it WILL bite you!!
5. If you do lose signal underway try to stop the boat immediately. It is going to fly back to the position of the last time you updated.
Loved 1) Brian explaining to nugget what the anchor is and 2) the anchor cam in that beautiful clear water. AWESOME drone shots too. Great episode guys! Thank you! Much love as always!! Edit: OMG the bonfire and SUNSET! *sigh*
I swear that baby has a button you push and she smiles! Too cute!
Brian, watching back videos in particular "shit storm" have you thought about using "Vicks" in your nose to cancel the smells like the medical examiners do. It's just a thought maybe it will help. Enjoy watching your videos 😊 calming, interesting, fun on & on. I am 75 yrs. old so my travel days are over but you have opened up an entire new world to me. Thank you. Please let everyone involved know how much I enjoy. Tracie😀⛵🧻
What a beautiful wonderfull life you have and what a beautiful cute baby you have, a fabulous way to bring up your daughter.what a start to life.xx💟💟
That footage of the anchor drop was awesome!
I also liked
Ditto
Dude, The shot while dropping the anchor was great , Great video Thanks.
That blue water....stunning!
Yes Delos, when I lived in Lauderdale I cruised to the Bahamas on a large vessel, I whish I could have explored some of those deserted Islands as you guys did. Great show, Love ur adventures at sea....
I love your choice of music on this episode!🥰
What a true blessing you guys have.
