At the end of the video you say “I have no idea the kindness of the people in this world, it blows me away”. What I would say is that you have no idea of the magnitude of joy you bring to us each week by taking us into your life and sharing your adventures. Wishing you all nothing but the best.
@@ricktrueman9826 And it's so great you'd forward-planned to have Grace with you (she may disagree at times like this . . . !) Just imagine going through that, just the two of you, with Nugget care also needed.
One of THE best edited Delos stories for a long time, almost like the vintage Delos episodes. It felt like we were really there with you guys. Well done crew. 👍
Good stuff. I just realized something about Delos vids that I think is brilliant. No stupid TY ads in the middle of the episode. Other channels have ads every 5 mins and it takes you out of the story and annoys you. I love that I can count on being able to be immersed in a Delos episode from start to finish and not get yanked out. So, thanks for making those choices. It totally makes a huge difference. ⛵️ ❤️
I agree, the uninterrupted videos significantly enhances the experience watching them and likely results in a longer average watch time. Although credit goes to Brian and Kazza for turning the ads off, the real thanks go to their patrons who make it possible.
One of your best! I have an Amel Maramu 48, which I have lived in for 10 years. Whilst not as long as you, I did one passage from Falmouth Antigua to Falmouth UK without stopping and one crew. In one 5 day period the wind never went below 32 kts with it topping out at about 45. We were north of you. Fiaial (Azores)l was abeam at about 1,000 miles. Bermuda was 650 miles WSW. We were so for North that we were in the Ice Berg region from the Labradore current (May). It was b....y cold. The waves were huge. When we were in the troughs we could see nothing but the bastions of water about to fall on us. At the top we could see for miles. I know where you have been. Thank God you are safe, and thank God I was in an Amel also. I have been watching your channel and often wondering if you had left it too late to go North? I am glad you are safe and keep on making your videos. Tim Hammick, Marandina, Ocean Cruising Club
I was also wondering about the timing of the northerly run. I think the Patreon subscribers keep updated with current goings-on and apparently all is well. The weather in this vid though is something to be avoided, mostly because of the inconsistency. Tearing a sail like that could be really bad if you weren't prepared.
Yeah, this video is from early summer or late spring i think. They are like 4 or 5 months behind. They are in Maine right now about to head south again I think.
The first time i sailed with my wife in these conditions i thought, "why dont youtubers show the bad conditions." Now watching this from the comfort of my living room, i realize the camera just cant catch the feeling of being there. I dont miss those cold wet nights on the water! thanks for sharing
Over done welcome ? No way ! Delos crew is loved by many and respected for their friendly and caring relationships with others. You friends , deserve the love that you get ! That was a hell of a ride ! Glad everyone is safe !
Captain Brian you are an inspiration. Not only do you manage to sail safely through a potentially dangerous passage, you also managed your crew's spirits well by being confident and behaving in a positive light. You are an awesome role model. Well done.
Nice episode, and let me tell you how much I just love to see the little Nugget smile, which she almost does every time the camera turns on her. Such a happy kid | Greetings from Denmark
What a wonderful and timely welcome home from my fellow Virginians ! You all looked and sounded beat (literally) in more ways than anyone wishes. So fortunate the Nug was able to adapt and be entertaining throughout episode.
Great editing, sound, and videography provided for an amazing episode. You could almost feel the wind and waves bash the boat and the stress of the passage was palpable. Nice job Brian, Karen, and Kiril!
I hope you guys do a “viewer raffle” again and award a spot to one of us lucky viewers. I swear on everything I will record myself quitting my job, selling every possession I own and joining Delos for a mighty adventure!!! PLEASE TEMPT ME!!!
I love to imagine the big ships of old with a huge crew constantly keeping on top of all this kind of weather, must have been crazy. Another great one Delos!
Kazza thinking a little house with a woodstove and porch would be very nice! She looked really done in. Welcome back to wind rain cold and rough seas, welcome back.! Your friends at precision sails will be itching to get their hands on that torn jib. Hope the guy who was single handing is ok. Great vid typical Delos spirit too!
27 minutes already over??? Amazing episode! I was missing the videos where you are sailing in open waters. Can't wait to see next week's video! Cheers from Texas!
The nugget does nothing but bring big smiles to the viewers. Good job Captain Brian and crew. I have been through some squalls but nothing like that. Glad you guys are safe.
Amazing! This episode was so beautifully done and authentic. Way to step up your editing game and good on you all for this epic sail with baby nugget. All the love.
I have a Navy Seal Son in Virginia. It was nice to see you so welcomed there. This was one trip I was not as envious as I usually am. That boat, though! What an amazing vessel. As are her Captain and Crew.
For what my opinion is worth, this time period now, with the three of you, is the best of Delos. I've been watching since the very first episode when you were looking for a boat to go cruising. Your family is adorable.
My father had sailboats, and tried to get me used to the ocean in weather like that. That brought back memories, but I never could get used to it, then I found out that I have vertigo so now I see why I never would, but I did like sailing. Tacking and jiving, big jib, small jib, spinnaker and what he used to say, " show off her belly", (the bottom paint). Nice y'all got back to solid ground safe. Looking forward to the future episodes especially from the track I see you'll be taking. Kaza, enjoy the solid ground, looks like Brian and the Nugget will be deep in Chinese food 😉
Me and my wife just made a "relo" from the Midwest to the gulf coast of Alabama. Hurricane Sally arrived and almost destroyed everything, so I understand your circumstances, or issues. No power, no mail, no trash, endless chainsaws, individuals hugging, praying, crying......piles of trees, brush, and amazing how people gather, join forces...
Adults are all like, "Damn this is rough and uncomfortable!" Nugget: Smiling and sleeping through the storms and the beating. Has no idea this isn't normal! LOL
Well done Delos she handled the conditions beautifully. Well done on the sail change and you are all so calm, controlled and respectful of mother nature.
Seeing the Space X first stage in the process of landing was awesome! I know that I mentioned that you may see the rocket launch (which you didn't see) but I never thought about the returning stage. Duh! lol I must say that the journey was not all that pleasant looking at ALL. But it was so nice to have a few members of the Delos Tribe invite you to stop over at their dock space. And I was confused for just a second about the "Here's a beer and a corona kit." But Corona IS a beer - so that must be a beer kit! Then it hit me, . . . lol. And as always Sierra was quite entertaining. : - ) Scott W
Glad you all safely made it back to the US. That was a rough passage. And CaliIco Skies took a hit there. Hope she's OK. It looks like Neptune gave you a nice ( not nice ) "Welcome back to the high seas *insert some derogatory word*" after being stuck in the Bahamas chilling. Man, the Little Nugget is a champ! Sleeping while boat is beating. Smiling still and unfazed while Delos is bobbing around. Am I crazy wishing I was there bobbing around with you guys? Hahaha. And it all ended with a warm welcome from those folks. What a treat. Great people. Hope you are all doing OK. Nice vid yet again. Take care!
Not crazy, just would like some adventure and they were having an adventure! Did you know that an adventure isn't an adventure unless there is a good chance for things to not go as planned? That is what makes it an adventure! LOL
Finally watching this saved episode. Exciting from start to finish! I love the way Sierra caressed her mom's face when she was expressing her relief in being settled, calming Kassa's stress.❤Children are love and magic to their parents' wellbeing. God bless all your travels.⛵🌧🌬🌈
You did a great job of getting through these challenging conditions. Watching you being tested to the max made me think how much it would have helped to have Blue and Brady with you.
Looking forward to seeing Bill, and seeing or hearing how the damages to the rigging (?) on his boat got repaired. Seeing you all reunite on land, and the next updates! Stay safe, social distance, don't forget masking up when on land and with other folks. Blessings!
Great episode, nice to see the stress that comes with being in heavy Sailing conditions, and how you handled it, and how the lil lady was totally unphased, by it all, was so beautiful to see Her smile when She heard Dads voice, real sailing life, awesome.
Yikes! One would guess that the Delos Family cruising days are numbered. Which is totally respectable as you got to do what is best for you. My wife hates uncomfortable passages, but these are the ones we talk about most, like a badge of courage. I love the honesty.
I really enjoy your journey. Been a fan for years. What stands out is your attention towards the viewer. For example that you don’t interrupt the episode with ads. Thank you. Carry on...
Great Adventure ! Tire and True sailers the lot of you, the Nugget too. That was a hell of a ride, and having to make a sail change in that kind of weather, just miraculous !!! Welcome home again to the 🇺🇸 !!! Thank you for taking us along ... ARRR !!!
You guys never cease to amaze from idylic carabean settings to scary atlantic seas as a sailor so much respect and its no surprise you are all so admired and respected.
What a blessing a happy baby is!...especially in such situations! it's who she is 🤗 and how you guys are and the life that you've lived with her... what a perfect addition to your crew she is! as well as Grace! :) although temporary... nice to see these salty sailors enjoying the calm of a safe harbor and a warm welcome and vittles! ;) 🤙 p.s. superlative filming and editing and soundtrack- well done! And, thank you 😊
If there is ever anything to take away from the Delos crew and other cruisers with channels is the continuous camaraderie and true kindness of people. In what we often think of as a crazy world, these episodes keep reminding us that the world is full of wonderful, caring and giving people. I want to cruise for the rest of my life for the reward of meeting many of these wonderful people that fill our wonderful world!
This is the Atlantic. Most of my memories of sailing The Mother are filled with squalls, wind out of the place we want, beating, and bouncing about. Actually, I wish I WAS there.
OMG, S/v DELOS. Other than some of the weather, this was a fun one !!! Totally love how Nuggette just is full of smiles underway !!! Second Mate extraordinaire !!
Glad you had an extra pair of experienced pair of hands to help change that jib! That was HUGE!! Welcome to the USA!! Happy you made safe passage. That was intense!! Y'all are an amazing group and I stand in awe of your strength, calm and perseverance in the face of challenges!! Cheers!
The impact you guys have on the sailing community is amazing The amount of people that I have met that get Inspired to change their life course due to your impact Is priceless can't wait to share an ancorage Godspeed
Damn, that was some gnarly weather, we actually turned around because of the same system and weathered it in Charleston, SC. on our way to the Chesapeake . After seeing your footage, glad we did! Much Love and hope to see you guys in the tropics this winter Acadian Adventures
Arrrrh, the 'joys' of upwind in 30+kts !!!! Great episode of the real world and with all the craziness of current times it was truly heartening to see a warm welcome from the storm !!!
Brian, I admire your captain skills in keeping calm and positive (without denying it is bad) and boosting moral! Great job you all, managing storm and baby!
Amazing episode. I really loved the music in this one, the guitars and piano - going to have to Shazam it. Great teamwork. Love seeing little Nugget smiling! Going through the rough patches always makes the destination feel much better when you get there. Always surprised by the kindness of people (including yourselves).
Brian and Kazaa, this is among your best episodes IMO. Here’s why. You have always promised to show the bad with the good. I have been on hard passages. I revel in the challenge of handling the boat, reacting positively to equipment issues, and the always difficult mental struggle of the physical stress from being in active seas. You have shown those elements of sailing honestly and with tremendous grace. Thank you. Most important, was the brilliant landfall and instant recovery. Successfully making a hard passage is its own reward. But the gift of the caring community of sailors restores the soul and makes me proud to have opportunities to live in that world. Well done!
How cool was that? 😀😀😀😀 the rocket stuff. The kindness of people in the Delos tribe is quite a special group. Been watching since 2013 and I still enjoy everything I see. Thank you for a small escape.
It makes me feel so emotional to watch your videos. I grew up with sailing parents. My mother was the first female sailing instructor in SA when I was in my teens. In the early 90’s she did a crossing from Cape Town to S AMERICA. Up to USA and back over to Holland where she settled back on terra firma. She stopped sailing after the last crossing. I think the conditions where the last cherry on the top and watching your difficulties in this video makes me realise what a brave and adventurous spirit she had. She died in March 2019 aged 73. Glad you arrived safely in the USA. Wishing you safe passage as you continue on your journey 💗💗💗. Over and out x
The folk who welcomed you restore one’s faith in the kindness of people. I was watching this while lying in bed and I swear I felt seasick and scared. ⛵️🙏❤️
You guys are amazing. And the beauty is that you not only show the good times but even the bad times when you are super upset and all. Stay safe and happy y'all. :)
I really respect how Delos shows what it's actually like to live aboard a boat, and in this case what it can be like to have to move to avoid the tropical storms and hurricanes. I find this channel fascinating because it's REAL, not like those, "oh look at my perfect life" while not showing everything else ones. I have no time for the fake channels. I have ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD for Delos lol.
Nugget is alive and well...I love her smile/giggle.....Mom/dad, when the weather is rough, hang me off the spreader and I'll keep the boat stable. At least I can have some fun.....lol...I am expecting in the next video she'll be hanging off a spreader giggling (I hope) ....see dad, I told you......sure you'll be at anchor...
Brian, this is one of your best videos. Thank you for sharing the sounds of the wind and the ocean. Welcome back to the U.S.A. One God's greatest blessings is becoming a daddy. Sierra is wonderful. You are a wonderful daddy. Kazza you are wonderful too. : )
The look on Kazaa's face at about 19:10 is so tired and worn out. I really felt for her. The only good thing about a passage like that is that it eventually comes to an end!
If this video doesn't show people to weather the storm and just keep going...I don't know what does. And in contrast to your recent videos....so is life..beautiful...and then tough. Thanks for sharing guys...so glad you're all safe!
Cold and wet is the worse especially in any emergency. That is why it's good to visit up North in the summer and to go for comfort vs speed at times (like when cooking) and never carry too much sail. Most problems happen because people are in a hurry and thus those are "avoidable" problems / emergencies. We love ya and want all of you to arrive safe and alive.
Also glad you are safe, though I didn't feel that you were in real danger, except when you had to stow and put out the sail. Nugget is Great as usual, you are truly blessed with a happy child. Take Care
Good morning. OMG you guys are just the best.I envy you so much Brian. I can't imagine having a better family than yours. I was in the navy for four years. So I know the strength of the ocean. We'll I'll let you go. Please don't change. God has blessed you all with everything. God bless
I love you guys, I have been away for a while because being a teacher right now is sapping all my energy. However, watching Delos always makes me happy. I pop your channel up on my projector once in a while and show my students, what ya'll are up to. #mydream

@@Gamecockinnc1 That is wonderful news. Good karma goes in circles and SV Delos is full of good karma. Let's keep it flowing !!!
No doubt about it I would give Brian the shirt off my back. Are they near Beaufort N.C?
Absolutely nailed it. When you inspire and entertain people, they want to return the favor.
Of all the sailing channels on RUclips by far SV delos is my favorite of all time a bad day turns to good when I pull up delos on RUclips
So glad you received a warm welcome after that passage.
Thanks for the ride. Love Kazza's spirit

There were hints of Kiril editing particularly during the sailing bits.
Biomirth Kirin is the best!

Babies are amazing how they adapt to things. She will be a sailor immune to all things motion and sounds. Peace and grace to you all and be safe

p.s. superlative filming and editing and soundtrack- well done! And, thank you 😊
If there is ever anything to take away from the Delos crew and other cruisers with channels is the continuous camaraderie and true kindness of people. In what we often think of as a crazy world, these episodes keep reminding us that the world is full of wonderful, caring and giving people. I want to cruise for the rest of my life for the reward of meeting many of these wonderful people that fill our wonderful world!
This is the Atlantic. Most of my memories of sailing The Mother are filled with squalls, wind out of the place we want, beating, and bouncing about.
Actually, I wish I WAS there.
OMG, S/v DELOS. Other than some of the weather, this was a fun one !!! Totally love how Nuggette just is full of smiles underway !!! Second Mate extraordinaire !!
I'm just so impressed on how much friends and strangers help out. Especially Chinese food...
I forgot how much I love the sound of wind, sails and rigging. And I’m was lake sailor.
Glad you had an extra pair of experienced pair of hands to help change that jib! That was HUGE!! Welcome to the USA!! Happy you made safe passage. That was intense!! Y'all are an amazing group and I stand in awe of your strength, calm and perseverance in the face of challenges!!
Cheers!
agreed.....
The impact you guys have on the sailing community is amazing The amount of people that I have met that get Inspired to change their life course due to your impact Is priceless can't wait to share an ancorage Godspeed
Damn, that was some gnarly weather, we actually turned around because of the same system and weathered it in Charleston, SC. on our way to the Chesapeake . After seeing your footage, glad we did!
Much Love and hope to see you guys in the tropics this winter
Acadian Adventures
Arrrrh, the 'joys' of upwind in 30+kts !!!! Great episode of the real world and with all the craziness of current times it was truly heartening to see a warm welcome from the storm !!!
Here comes the Rain Sierra, what a happy child you have.
Brian, I admire your captain skills in keeping calm and positive (without denying it is bad) and boosting moral! Great job you all, managing storm and baby!
Amazing episode. I really loved the music in this one, the guitars and piano - going to have to Shazam it. Great teamwork. Love seeing little Nugget smiling! Going through the rough patches always makes the destination feel much better when you get there. Always surprised by the kindness of people (including yourselves).
Turn around, go back and do it again!!! Best Delos vid ever. Enjoyed every minute of it. Glad the kid made it thru unscathed.
That's why that part of the Atlantic is known as the "Graveyard of the Atlantic" Thousands of shipwrecks, untold number of lost souls.
Brian and Kazaa, this is among your best episodes IMO. Here’s why. You have always promised to show the bad with the good. I have been on hard passages. I revel in the challenge of handling the boat, reacting positively to equipment issues, and the always difficult mental struggle of the physical stress from being in active seas. You have shown those elements of sailing honestly and with tremendous grace. Thank you. Most important, was the brilliant landfall and instant recovery. Successfully making a hard passage is its own reward. But the gift of the caring community of sailors restores the soul and makes me proud to have opportunities to live in that world. Well done!
Thank you Mark, wishing you the best brotha!
Dear Grace, may I suggest that you have a dermatology consult on the darker mole 1 in below L lower eyelid. JH Adams MD
How cool was that? 😀😀😀😀 the rocket stuff. The kindness of people in the Delos tribe is quite a special group. Been watching since 2013 and I still enjoy everything I see. Thank you for a small escape.
Friyay Delos! Much love to you guys "Bri-yon" Kazza and the lil Nugget!
Thanks for sharing, it is so great to see the community helping in all areas of your trip. Just proves there is still good people in this world.
Dudes great job editing this one. Loved it Kiril
It makes me feel so emotional to watch your videos. I grew up with sailing parents. My mother was the first female sailing instructor in SA when I was in my teens. In the early 90’s she did a crossing from Cape Town to S AMERICA. Up to USA and back over to Holland where she settled back on terra firma. She stopped sailing after the last crossing. I think the conditions where the last cherry on the top and watching your difficulties in this video makes me realise what a brave and adventurous spirit she had. She died in March 2019 aged 73.
Glad you arrived safely in the USA. Wishing you safe passage as you continue on your journey 💗💗💗. Over and out x
Kaza: I'm so f#%king tired"
O man said the same thing soo many times..have kids they said!!! Lol. Sweet video!
The folk who welcomed you restore one’s faith in the kindness of people. I was watching this while lying in bed and I swear I felt seasick and scared. ⛵️🙏❤️
Delos is such an impressive sea going sailboat and you guys are awesome. Great video. Hope you are staying warm up there in the colder climate.
You guys are amazing. And the beauty is that you not only show the good times but even the bad times when you are super upset and all. Stay safe and happy y'all. :)
The way that reminded me of our crazy sail to La Reunion in those unforgiving roaring 40s🤘🏼 Yoh!
Nice job on the editing Kiril. You are the best.
I really respect how Delos shows what it's actually like to live aboard a boat, and in this case what it can be like to have to move to avoid the tropical storms and hurricanes. I find this channel fascinating because it's REAL, not like those, "oh look at my perfect life" while not showing everything else ones. I have no time for the fake channels. I have ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD for Delos lol.
Amazing vid as always, guys! Big love from Cape Town!
Rough but well managed passage. Great seafaring determined crew. Full respect sent. Welcome back to the USA, 👏🏆👍🇺🇸
Nugget is alive and well...I love her smile/giggle.....Mom/dad, when the weather is rough, hang me off the spreader and I'll keep the boat stable. At least I can have some fun.....lol...I am expecting in the next video she'll be hanging off a spreader giggling (I hope) ....see dad, I told you......sure you'll be at anchor...
Brian, this is one of your best videos. Thank you for sharing the sounds of the wind and the ocean. Welcome back to the U.S.A. One God's greatest blessings is becoming a daddy. Sierra is wonderful. You are a wonderful daddy. Kazza you are wonderful too. : )
The look on Kazaa's face at about 19:10 is so tired and worn out. I really felt for her. The only good thing about a passage like that is that it eventually comes to an end!
If this video doesn't show people to weather the storm and just keep going...I don't know what does. And in contrast to your recent videos....so is life..beautiful...and then tough. Thanks for sharing guys...so glad you're all safe!
Cold and wet is the worse especially in any emergency. That is why it's good to visit up North in the summer and to go for comfort vs speed at times (like when cooking) and never carry too much sail. Most problems happen because people are in a hurry and thus those are "avoidable" problems / emergencies. We love ya and want all of you to arrive safe and alive.
Bravo for the crew, for the captain and expacialy for little nugget.❤️👏👏🏆👌
Welcome home. 🎉
Wish you all the best in days to come.
Awesome music in this vid, felt like I was there
Also glad you are safe, though I didn't feel that you were in real danger, except when you had to stow and put out the sail. Nugget is Great as usual, you are truly blessed with a happy child. Take Care
Love the Chinese food victory dinner after that monster cruise.
made me order in :)
Good morning. OMG you guys are just the best.I envy you so much Brian. I can't imagine having a better family than yours. I was in the navy for four years. So I know the strength of the ocean. We'll I'll let you go. Please don't change. God has blessed you all with everything. God bless
You know it's gnarly when Kazza's dropping f-bombs
I love you guys, I have been away for a while because being a teacher right now is sapping all my energy. However, watching Delos always makes me happy. I pop your channel up on my projector once in a while and show my students, what ya'll are up to. #mydream
