  • We made it to South Africa! After 2 weeks at sea and over 7 months with out being at a dock, we tie Delos up at the Zulu Land Yacht Club in Richards Bay, South Africa! While waiting for a good weather window to continue south we meet awesome people, see some amazing wild life and get hit with a pretty bad storm!
    This is our story, a story of three souls sailing around the world. It is a story about sailing, but it's also a story about the fantastic people we meet and amazing places we see. It's a story of people living their lives in an alternate way, in close connection with the beautiful people and amazing planet that we call home. Our experience has affected us so profoundly we want to share it, hoping that others may find inspiration to follow their dreams and do what they love.

    Seeing the elephants up close was awesome, they should be wild and free and never chained. My daughter showed me one of your videos this summer and I have been hooked ever since, watching back from your very first one. I am in awe, love to see the different cultures and all the beautiful places you visit. Keep livin the dream and sharing.

    • @berwwtje
      @berwwtje 7 лет назад +4

      Honestly, what else is there to do? I mean, if it falls off on a highway that's a different matter, but on a mostly deserted road like this it is just funny xD.

    • @Shawnmogg1
      @Shawnmogg1 7 лет назад +10

      My guess is that the joint was coming out soon anyway.

    I like the technical details in this episode, specifically around the current and coastal patterns of Africa. I find I learn something by watching your channel, unlike some other newbie sailing channels that either show you what not to do or nothing much at all.Keep up the excellent work around sharing your route planning and weather windows.regards.

  • @teejay7157
    @teejay7157 7 лет назад +1

    Wow! What an amazing episode! Such a wild place - on both land and sea - and you guys are game for all of it. I swear, we your viewers are so lucky to see so many beautiful and exotic places through your eyes. Thanks for all you do, your creativity and your courage.

  • @dbibbyma
    @dbibbyma 7 лет назад +1

    Dudes! Yet another most enjoyable adventure. Gotta say I get all emotional watching your videos. Such the adventure, such the traveling spirit. such good editing and great music selection. Along with Netflix etc.. you are my entertainment source. I am from US, but living in Berlin and watching you guys sail the world. Nice!

  • @offthewallsbbqmore4821
    @offthewallsbbqmore4821 3 года назад +1

    So glad I found this channel. I love your videos!! I seen the video of ten years on living on a sailboat that prompted me to search for your channel. So awesome I started at episode 1 now I’m on 101. You guys make me want to quit my job and buy a sailboat( never been on a sailboat before) and cruise the the world. I have a fish boat and rented a few houseboats before. But sailing across the pacific would be terrifying for me as I’ve never had land out of my sight. But you guys made it look fun and easy. Can’t wait to see the next 100 episodes. Keep up the great work and sharing and I’ll keep watching. Never know one day might meet at a cruiser spot. Take care and be safe

    Exciting episode, much to see and take in on both sea and land. Certainly worthy of a second run thru. Weather window analysis was most interesting, showing the importance of getting input from locals. May you enjoy fair winds, a following sea and swift passage

    Thank you for showing us the weather patterns and looking for weather windows! Wise move from rickety docks to the Yacht Club. How long were you there for? Loved the up close camera work of those impressive magnificent elephants. Holding my breath while you petted the cats. Really, don't do that for us. They are so unpredictable. So you left us with another cliff hanger. . . That damn spider bite became infected? Love these videos and great story telling with visuals!! Fair Winds!

    @SailingSVPlanB 7 лет назад +1

    Well done Brady!! This is gonna be one of your very best ones. You guys have really stepped up your game. Very concise explanation of how those weather systems form and how to take advantage of them. You must have been driving through a very dry climate when you and Karin were eating the grapes. Looked like maybe you both had a bit of dry mouth.`

I'm happy to see 287 thumbs up and zero thumbs down. I can't remember a time I've seen a rating that good. Totally deserved. The footage of you guys feeding the bull elephants, hands in their mouths, was amazing. Thank you.

    I had to catch up with quite a few of your past sailing years.. But now I'm on the hook. I simply love your videos, your adventures, the whole crew. And I really have to start going blue water sailing. I envy you more with every mile and every episode. Now I'm following you on marine traffic as well. If you guys ever decide to continue in Europe we'll have a party here where ever you are going.

But anyway, I must say out of ALL THE yachting/sailing video channels I've ever watched, yours is the BEST!
