    Hey RUclips family! Stepping foot onto the Tiburon Explorer was insane. By far the nicest boat we have ever lived on. If you could dive anywhere in the world, where would it be??

    Alex and Brady, a few words of inspiration to you both. When you two left Delos I went through a time of depression, but then along came Cruisers Academy which kind of filled the void. I still love to watch Delos but you two need to know you are equally special. Your content gives us a window into places some, if not most of us would have little opportunity to see let alone visit. Keep up the good work. Many thanks from Olympia Washington!

      I second that, i'll never forget the SV DELOS episode about the Azores. I remember thinking Alex's commentary on the isles' history was so hypnotic, that she had a natural gift to teach. The cinematography is surreal, the video is a free trip to a different dimension altogether 🙏💙🌊

      @@CruisersAcademy IMO cutting a very well edited video with ads completely takes away from the focus and delivery of the video.

    Another great episode. That boat is amazing, it makes me consider returning to dive the Galapagos properly. We went in 2014 to be on an Aggressor boat but they cancelled the day before our flight, we were heartbroken, we went anyway and did shore diving but it's not the same, you need a liveaboard to get to Darwin and Wolf, the truly special places. I didn't think I'd consider returning but this video has me rethinking. That is a beautiful boat and looks like a first class experience. At our age we deserve it. Thanks for sharing the amazing experience.

  • @RiverWoods111
    @RiverWoods111 2 года назад +8

    OMG! That Longlure Frogfish was super cool! I had no idea what it was, so I had to go research and figure out what that thing was. A fish with leg-like appendages and a weird texture exterior. It actually changes color so you could go back and see it again, and it could be bright yellow or red. It also has a rod with a lure on it to help it catch fish... Okay, so I might be a geek! Maybe, just a little bit of one. Lucky for you all, I only did a few minutes of research, because this would have been pages long. What a great way to get advertising and video footage for the new boat.
