Sailing OFF THE GRID for 3 months- How do we shop? Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 268
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 фев 2025
- How do you shop for 3 months of OFF THE GRID living on a sailboat? In this episode we find ourselves in the port of San Juan, Puerto Rico preparing to set sail to some very remote islands. Knowing it will be months before we can get supplies again we decide to do a huge provisioning run and fill Delos with enough food for 2 adults + 1 baby for 90 days which is 540 servings plus snacks, drinks, and other necessities like toilet paper! The food in itself is a crazy mission, and if you add in other necessities to keep Delos ship shape like fuel, oil, filters, and other boat projects we have in progress it can get out of control in a hurry. Hope you enjoy the video, and sending you lot's of love from us currently enjoying our 85th day out here in isolation! Capt. Breeyawn, Kazza, and The Little Nugget

Brian and Karin you are making some nice videos. Sierra is the cutest. Good planning for her space since she is getting bigger. Keeping her safe. Looking forward to the Bahama anchorages.
I have been a tinkerer since I was a kid. In the past 20 years I have educated myself in Diesel and Automotive, but after watching your videos my obsession has grown beyond the simplicity of land based vessels ranging from Honda’s to Fire-engines. Including the Sausalito fire boat back in 2005. I never thought I’d obsess over sailing the way I do. I actually have some money saved up for a sailboat. THE HUNT BEGINS! I love you guys and hope to someday see you out there!
Can I just point out how well-spoken Brian is? he speaks very clearly and it's very soothing. That man needs to record audiobooks!
I was about to comment the same thing until I saw yours. Extremely pleasant listening to Brian narrate.
Brother Brady has a wonderfully resonant voice as well. Must be in the genes!
That's a great idea with the audio books. They should check out O'Kelly's RUclips channel they're sailors also. He has an ebook about how to narrate and make money
That's about the only positive thing that can be said about a provisioning video.
Diy boat repairs audiobook. Id buy it ahah
You guys rock and nuggett is just adorable.
Love your family dynamics too.
Great and inspirational lifestyle.
Awe....such a great video. You two have created such a great life for your family. Kudos!!!! Safe travels!!!
Loving these behinds the scenes video segments and great that you can call on friends for help when you need to do a BIG shop.
Glad you like them, and thanks so much for watching! Brian
i swore i wouldnt buy another sailboat until my kids were older, and now that they are, i WISH i had bought one when they were born. What an inspiration you guys are! Great people, great parents. Lets meet up in new england(we are in NH). We can meet up and take you for a flight in the airplane up the New England Coast
Hi Kazza, you were so calm as you prepared the food shopping list! Provisioning is my nightmare and I wish it weren't. Would you be able to share your general shopping list with us.. just as a guide of what to think about?
Your wife is a great sewing expert! Your daughter has a wonderful disposition!
As a father of 4, I love seeing new parents find the right balance of safety and activity for their new little ones. Oh and the name of the fabric along the edge is called bias tape.
When I was a little kid, the TV special Winnie the Pooh was only shown once a year. There were no VCRs, certainly no DVRs. It was less than 30 minutes of sheer joy in a 365 day year, and when it was over, I cried. Every time. Watching Delos is a little like that. Sure, I can re-watch the videos, but I have a hard time waiting for Fridays, my world stops while I watch, and then I feel like crying when they’re done. Seven long, quarantined days until the next one. Really, guys. What you do means that much to me. Stay safe and healthy.
Kazza, my wife and you are both needle and thread junkies that regularly make "silk purses from sow's ears". We are so impressed with your professional standards for exactness and your frustration when availability results in less than the desired results. None the less your wrapping solution is most elegant and durable. Here's to your essential skills and a deep seated appreciation for your example of superior craftsmanship. Brian, do you realize that your "binding" to Kazza and Nugget is, likewise, by design? God bless you all.
I'm slowly catching up here! And I can't help to say how amazed I am by all of your skills and how organized you are!! So inspiring !!!

As a child that grew up living on boats I can say "little Nugget" is going to have the best storys to tell as she grows up.
I'm happy to see you all back in motion lol lil nugg is getting so big hope ur new trip is safe and you reach worth no problems I still wanna go on a island tour hint hint lol love you guys 💜
Thanks so much and really appreciate you watching. Sending much love!
I have been a subscriber since 2016. SV delos was the first channel I ever subscribed to on RUclips. While this season has a different pace to it, I still absolutely love each and every video. The pace may have changed, but the Delos spirit is still there 100%. Fair winds and following seas.
Today's super heros have the superpower of DETAIL ORIENTEDNESS. This is the super power that may just save humanity from destroying ourselves. Thanks for demonstrating how to do this so beautifully!
Looks like you guys are back in your groove after having the little "nugget". This episode was fun! Thanks guys, keep up the good work...
I discovered Delos accidentally a few weeks ago. Since then I’ve found myself drifting away from my usual political podcasts and towards your oceangoing adventures, squeezing more enjoyment out of each day along the way. Your perspective is much appreciated and I’m having fun catching up on your past seasons. Thank you for such positive outreach. Much needed in this day and age. All the best from Michigan.🍻
Little Nugget is becoming even more gorgeous! Such a cutie!
Hey guys! Wonderful video! It was a pleasure to meet you and to hangout in San Juan! Take good care! We are about to get a Catamaran, again!! Hope we can sail in a near future! Big hugs! And kisses to baby Sierra! 🤗🤗♥️🇵🇷 Glorimar
The transition from a party boat to a family boat has been terrific. Who knew? Keep up the great videos. They are a hit every Saturday morning for those of us landlocked in CV territory.
Thank you! Will do!
Congratulations for a new milestone of reaching 500K subscriber! As a symbol of your strong SV DELOS tribe, hard work and adventure sailing videos which makes us excited for more. God Bless!
As a pediatric nurse I must say I’m beyond impressed at the parenting skills of both Karen and Bryan! Sierra’s growing so fast and is such a happy baby, it’s wonderful watching her grow as you three navigate the high seas as a family (though I do miss Brady and Alex)! It’s hard enough raising a newborn baby in a home, I couldn’t imagine doing it on a sailboat AND off grid! I pray you all stay healthy and safe, thank you immensely for sharing your experiences and world with us, it’s such a joy to watch. ❤️👶🏼⛵️🌊🌞
It’s seam binding, Karen!
Little Nugget has already developed that look of insatiable curiosity and desire to explore, much like her beloved Viking ancestors! Yyyyyaaaaay!
I really love all your videos specially when little nugget join on board. Thanks for making inspirational videos. Safe sailing. Godbless ❤
You all seem so happy and content as parents and together. Praying for your safety and health. 😊
You are absolute masters of sight, sound and movement. Your video edit’s are a benchmark for content creators . Thanks for the inspiration . 🇨🇭🤘
When the Ultimate party boat becomes a baby nursery!!!! Love it! Nugget is adorable!!!!
Another awesome video guys, loved the ending. Brian being Brian, funny . And for all your watchers out there those rash guards are awesome I wear one riding my motorcycle all day and never get sunburned. Take care you guys.
Well done with the new nugget condo with the arched door way!!! You guys are so resourceful!!
Noticed you were able to use footage from Culebra to illustrate the fuel provisioning. Thanks! I was supposed to be there in mid-March, but... for now any little glimpse of that place will have to suffice, and you guys provided. Fair Winds!
This baby is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Precious!
That was great, as usual. I love the lesson on blowing into the diesel cans, Brian playing with Sierra, and the final 10 seconds of the episode!! GREAT work!!! Thank you!
I've watched a decade of your lives in 7 weeks of quarantine. Hope all Delos crew, friends and family are doing well. Stay safe and happy sailing!
Much appreciated, thanks for watching! Brian
quite the adventure y'all are on!
now i'm following you closely to see how you manage all the country shut-downs you face.
wow. the problems we land-dwellers don't even think about.
My wife and I are constantly impressed with your parenting strategies. It really is heart warming
They’re doing a fabulous job. I remember when My wife and I had our son. How overwhelming it all was. To think they’re doing it all on a Amel Ketch out in Paradise. That is a Ketch right?
@@Nicholas_Devine Yup, its a Ketch. Almost all models of Amel Yachts for the last few decades have been ketch rigged. Many years ago they had a couple models that were in the 40 ft range that you could get in a sloop rig, but what they have become known for is the general layout you see on the Super Maramu. They key features almost all models share is the ketch rig of course, center cockpit, aft cabin, the wing keel with integrated transmission for the prop, the drop down bow thruster, etc. Many boats also include a good deal of automation which may have been options but is mostly standard of current models like powered winches, the power furling on the Jib and the Main, in-mast furling on the main, the list goes on.... All of this was to make a solid world cruising yacht that is easily handled, comfortable, safe, and reduces stress on the crew.
@@SteelDoesMyWill thanks for your comment. I'm learning amel yachts are very nice
If you have a spare cap for the fuel cans you can rig a neat blow hole which makes it easier to pressurize. The cap has two holes one for the tube to the tank one for a tube to blow down for pressure.
Nugget, gets to see all this when she gets older! Just think how great that will be!
All the stuff Mom and Dad did for her when she was little! Priceless!
B I N G O !!
I am so addicted to this channel. Thanks for getting me through this covid-19 lock down. I love you guys. I have never given out money to a RUclips channel before. Beers are on me this time.. Cheers from Australia!
600 mile trip is just around the block for you guys -----another awesome video thanks
Saw your interview with some news channel reporting on the sailors in quarantine. Its great to see you guys being newsworthy. Keep safe and enjoy each day, day to day.
Kazza and Brian, you two are the matriarch and patriarch that all other sailing channels/cruisers should aspire to.
Enjoy your travels and videos very much.
If you ever get to Orange Beach, Alabama would love to meet you and cook y’all a steak!
Another great video guys. Sierra is growing fast. Great parenting as well btw. The tape is called hemming tape here in the UK. Stay safe. Fair winds & regards from the UK
There is so much Hard work in attaining paradise... but its worth it for weeks of happiness
I love seeing you guys grow as parents with your little nugget on the water!!! Special times for the three of you🥰
Have been following you for many months but just realized I have never subscribed to your Channel. Your family reminds me of many years ago my children and wife told me one day they were moving on the boat! I was out of town when they decided this and I had business and home and all the comforts of land life, and was informed to just come to the boat which had been decided by side and kids was our permanent home! Very long story and the adventure lasted for 14 years. And Yes! My life was turned into my dream by their Choice! What a Privilege! Congratulations on your baby, and your lives on Delos. Thats So Awesome! The best of life. Family Minimal living and an adventure that most don't have the opportunity to experience. I could send you a book and wish I had you tube when we made our decision. I am now in my seventies and kids are grown, My bride of 42 Awesome years is now in heaven and I am wondering how I could jump back on a boat and finish my time here sailing, single handing at my age is possible in my mind I am in great health, however idk bout being one, living the dream of a life without others to share it with and haven't decided what to do. Glad to see you came back to the boat after Baby time! The Best choice especially the way life these days have become on land! My support and Prayers always with you and yours. Regards Lawrence Trapani
Ahoy Lawrence, wow quite a story you have there.... I only hope that I am as lucky as you to have spent so much time with your partner in life. Sending you good vibes and much love from the good ship Delos! Brian
Love watching your channel. I’m land based as a doctor for sure, so escapism is wonderful via your channel. Really proud of both of you!!!!
B and K. Thank you for letting all of us into your life. And the little ones adorable. Great job guys. Ty
I love the provisioning videos. Weird, right? I've gone back and watched them years later. Especially fun when you had to cover 7 adults.
Not weird for me, I love them as well lol.
They are my favorits. I think its a gatherer-thing, we all love to shop food.
I think them provisioning in Asia for 6 months and 7 people is in my top ten Delos videos.
@@ZachD555 - I think I've seen that 3-4 times. Best one!
Stan Ruud I’m the same
Great idea with the safety netting guys. Love seeing the evolution of Delos crew as Parents: Tired mother at 8:40 LOL (poor exhausted Karin) Turn on the A/C and let her get 40 winks. Staying up to take in La Placita scene? Naah, Lets end the evening early to get our rest. And of course the sound of a baby crying, Aaaaah! What Is Happening?!
So sad I missed the first 10 years of the channel, but it's great being able to backtrack and enjoy all your adventures.
I love the sea and worked on several cruise ships from the Holland America Line. Your adventures and cruising the 7 seas of the World in a sailboat is just amazing. God's Speed...
I love you Delos people and with your new crew member videos are getting even better. Cheers from Brazil !!
Your baby is so sweet and cute. Love your videos. You are great parents, very lovable.
Brian, that's a cool trick re siphoning. While changing fish tank water, I discovered if I pre-filled the siphon tube, holding shut with my thumbs, then push the top end into tank and release both ends, just a few "thrusts" into the tank was enough to evacuate the air bubble and start the siphon. You may not have to suck or blow, IOW.
great to see these guys have a ukulele on board. i'd be crazy without a musical instrument.
Hey been watching for a while now and just wanted to thank you for choosing Scott toilet paper I know that sounds funny but my father worked for them for 35 years and I live five minutes away from the plant so again thank you ❤️🎅🤶😎👍
Great baby cage Kazza! Thanks for another fun SV Delos video of life with the little nugget.
Total new comer to the Delos and her Awesome Crew!!!! You guys are bringing a Colorado girl the world. Thank You all so much!!!! Keep doing what you love and I will keep watching. Super excited to see your trip into the colder seas.
So I'm curios about something. In watching these various sailing vids from all the different sources (couples) I don't see anyone using dehydrator or vacuum sealer. While I understand power and space is often a premium the ability to store foods that you normally could only have while around ports could be for extended periods would seem to be very advantageous. I dry all the vegetables I can when they come into season such as tomatoes and zucchini squash. I take tomatoes slice and dry them for soup or other stock or place them in bottles filled with olive oil them months later you can take them out to be used on dishes or toasted bread (sun dried tomatoes basically). Any of the squash you can shred, dry then re-hydrate to be used in bread, scrambled eggs, etc.
A vacuum sealer keeps things dry and bug free. Even purchased foods will store better once vacuumed and sealed. Things like nuts, cereals and flour which are so good at attracting bugs can be sealed for longer term storage.
Just curios.
I imagine the workload n the boat is too much already specially with the baby now. But it makes perfect sense.
This video Delos just ran A/C On the hook! I don’t think power is the issue. My vac sealer weighs about 1lb. They also make 12v units.
Ivan seems so sweet!!!! I love good natured people like that just willing to help out whenever. Shout out to u never stop being u !
As always you two are ace! Little nugget Sierra is adorable, safe sailing and will catch up on next 📹🎥👋👍👌🌅🌅⛵⛵⛵⛵💞🍻🍻
Parents will always prioritize their child's safety. It's a cool project for your little one! Awesome job!
Hey Guys. I'm so impressed and envious (in a good way) with your sea adventure as a family that you are my escape from city life and life in general. Keep on sailing, I just love your videos and blogs you make my days easier. Thanks so much!
Nice vid, great job organizing Kazaa.Learn something new every time! Great patron going out of his way and being so considerate. Shows there's genuine, caring people in this world.
Thank you for another great video! I'm self quarantined with my 2 year old granddaughter so mommy can work and your video's keep me smiling!
Thanks for the insight and sharing your lives with us. Hope the weather cooperates during your passage. Be safe!!
My first Costco experience was also that same store in PR and I felt just like how you looked! 😆
Hey guys! Good to hear from you and hope all's well. If we would have know this virus thing was gonna be so crazy we would have tripled that shopping trip, easy. Sending you much love. Brian, Karin, and Little Sierra
Your adventures are a constant source of inspiration! Keep following your instincts and thank you
So I'm scrolling down on my CNN app this morning. Then HOLY CRAP!! There's Brian, Karin & The Nugget on the thumbnail of a featured "You might want to be living on a boat now" story 😲! They're featured at the beginning end for two + minutes along with other cruisers.
So cool!
and here's the link for it: www.cnn.com/travel/videos/travel/2020/05/18/living-on-sailboats-pandemic-travel-orig.cnn
I wonder how different you are finding it on Delos with only 2 people and Sierra? Its very different to watch without 6 or 7 people onboard. Definitely a new chapter to the story.
Your little one is adorable. I miss my baby's being small. Enjoy it goes quicker than we want.
For the siphon, sir, try putting a check valve on the higher end, then shake it up and down in the liquid. The check valve will pull liquid in each time you shake it, but wont let the liquid back out. They sell what are called rattle siphons, same thing. Just a little thought, coming from a guy that has to put a lot of diesel into construction equipment.
Love the stories, keep em coming! Hope to see an update on little bro sooner or later :)
I spat my water out at the end! Lmao, who said romance was dead?!?!
That's first um... 'something or other' I've heard on Delos in a loooooong time!
Hey Brian next time you want to prime your Jerry can to fill the diesel tank, try using a dive tank with a hose to pressurize the can, just a thought. A little experiment.
for the fuel cans, you could also just squeeze the line to hold the fuel from running out when transferring from the first jug to the others, that way you won't have to pressurize each tank when switching ;)
So much to get done. But it will be worth it. And you two know how to do it quite well. Getting things that will last a long time is important. Just ad water foods. More than one trip to get everything on board, but it is worth it. You did well. Life is not to be endured but to be enjoyed and your seem to be enjoying life to its fullest. Outstanding. Young people grow extra fast. Soon she will be learning the skills of sailing. A family of three. And the call to bond with your child can be sometimes a bit strange but fun. Find a use for that system after she is old enough to not need it. Things that need to be done to enjoy your life at sea. You two are doing great. Wish I could help with some extra $ for you, but can't at this time. Enjoy all your videos. Have lots of fun and have a super wonderful day.
Great episode! Enjoy watching your adventures! Hoping you guys will make it Nova Scotia later this year.
Thank you so much for sharing your lives and adventures with us.
Brian, with your siphoning technique rather than blowing, wrap a rag around the pipe where it exits the can to create a seal and hold in place then crush the sides of the can to get the fuel flowing then release the rag seal to prevent a vacuum. Saves tasting diesel for the next 48hrs. D
I see the transition from getting supplies in San Juan, to fuel in Culebra on the "same clip" the power of behind the scenes ;) good luck crew on the next leg!
If you guys installed a backside water wash in the head, you could free up some space for more food by cutting back on Toilet paper. It just takes up so much space and if you’ve gotta stock up for long periods, more food is better.
I just love when Kaza says "Brian is turning crazy" with his playing with your lovely little Sierra and says "I'm gonna eat your belly now !". Just love it ! Thank you for these wonderful instants you share with us ! Lol, Patrice (From France)
Great video and what a great job Karin making that canopy for little nugget .
You guys are my HEROS! Good job...
Brian, you have to get one of these auto siphon things, it makes it simple to transfer fuel. Search 'Original Safety Siphon' on Amazon, it's a little copper thing with a marble and spring inside and a hose attached. You just stick it in the jerry jug, give it a couple of shakes and it starts the siphon. I have a couple of different sizes.
Thats my home sweet home next time you guys around Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 again go to the southwest of PR best beaches and alot more relax. GREAT VIDEO🙂
Nice job! Wishing you smooth sailing. Your baby is absolutely beautiful.
Cutest high five ever!!! I love these kinds of videos showing provisioning and preparations and learning how you logistically plan and do all this!
Old San Juan is my favorite place on earth.
Wait, WHAT! Almost 500,000 Delos subs all of a sudden?! Congrats on the immenant half million mark, guys. Wow!
always enjoy watching you folks. that siphoning trick was life changing. thanks for that.
Your siphoning method is genius. I will be using it.
This world still have a lot of kind hearted people. Great video. Take care of little guggett.
I've been watching the videos going back to 2015 and these people are awesome they just will never stop sailing good for them
Not sure if you have a hairdryer on board but if you wanna take stickers/sticky things off of surfaces like in 19:37 in the video, just point the hair dryer on it for a minute and it'll come off way easier!
Another fantastic video guys. You do a great job editing.
they always do
Have an awesome trip. I'd love to live like you guys!
Greetings from Coahuila, Mexico.
Maybe it has been asked before, but is Brady and Blue ever coming back onto Delos? I feel as though they would be a huge help with sailing and taking care of Nugget!!
You're getting me hooked again--post Brady departure. Although your newest episode was about mundane work and activities, it still was interesting and entertaining. Ep.268 showed just how much knowledge and experience is required to cruise. A good undertaking for an electrical engineer and a Swedish Martha Stewart ! I noticed on the last few episodes your use of the 'adverturizing' term and hope that you can eventually get back to that even if on a small scale. Adventurizing into primitive cultures is how you built your brand. What a series you created. Glad to hear you are heading to the Northeast. Uncharted territory ?
