Annnd We’re Off! Let’s Do This! ⛵️ Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 464

[@glennburch1081]

Videography is second to none! Watching Sierra grow right b4 our very eyes, she is so lucky to have two of the best parents on the planet. Such a cool kid. Can't wait to see her first dive with gear.... that will be a sight to behold for sure. Thanks for sharing, be safe and be well.

[@rickhunt4487]

Amazing dive in Beautiful water ! Great video ❤

[@svdelos]

Thanks so much Glenn, and yes we can't wait until she is big enough to start joining us on the dives!

[@Fatioman333]

I know! You guys have always set such a high standard with the quality of your video and edits, and they just get better and better. Amazing stuff

[@CheersFactory]

agreed, I also think is amazing to have been watching sierra grow so quickly! she will be scuba diving very soon...

[@zachbrown6734]

These last few videos have been really well put together and the videography is on another level

[@svdelos]

Thanks so much for the kind words Zach!

[@rickstevens1479]

I've been along for years , and it gets better and better.. Wow, the underwater filming is just beautiful... thanks Delos..

[@sandyc6569]

Wow Sierra is doing really well at swimming! It won't be long before she is swimming under the water for sure! Thanks for sharing yur beautiful family with us! 💙💜💜

[@svdelos]

Thanks so much Sandy! Yes she has gotten so confident lately in the water it's been so cool to see! So happy to share the adventure with you 🥰

[@briandonnell8801]

When I was teaching my kids to dive I had the them hold on to a boat cushion or fender and just float with their heads in the water. Then I tied a line to the float and pulled them around. It teaches them to relax and they can just look around.

[@mellando9770]

This is how I learnt too. And holding mum or dads hand at the same time as holding a floating device being towed. They were clever enough to make it a counting competition. Who could find the most blue gosh, star fish, shells etc. We didn’t realise how long we were keeping our heads under. Soon enough we didn’t want to be above the water. ❤

[@4x4smile]

Beautiful episode guys. Thanks so much for sharing your adventures.

[@martijnvanbeek4387]

I'll never get tired of these videos in the Pacific, my day is saved!

[@robertwhittaker6999]

Truly stunning images once again of nature under the waves. Eagerly waiting for the little one to take her fist scuba dive. Take care be safe 💚 Whoo Hooo 🚲

[@chantalrochon3566]

Your daughter is so sweet and clever.Good job parents 🎉❤😊

[@svdelos]

Aww thanks so much Chantal!

[@JoseMariaOliveira]

We will miss these dives while Delos 2.0 is being built. This channel is fantastic. You are making an excellent job. Thank you.

[@RV_Chef_Life]

Everyone have a wonderful weekend, and live every day like it’s your last ❤❤❤

[@joemedcalf7732]

Wow that is truly champagne sailing. That water is crazy blue and the sky and clouds just gorgeous. You guys being able to document and have pictures of your baby girl that is growing way too fast is just priceless.😊

[@svdelos]

🙌🙌🙌

[@allanmurphy7474]

I used to have my son hold on to my tank to swim with me and use my octopus to breathe and we would explore down to less than 40ft. It was a great experience for him and me. Cheers

[@dwight_klaus2981]

I LOVE your diving videos - they are my favorite. Amazing video quality. The sharks are kind of scary. 😳 I could dive happily without them. You must be so proud of Sierra's progress in the water. I also learn so much watching you sail under challenging situations. Thank you!

[@svdelos]

Wow thanks so much Dwight, so happy you are enjoying the dive videos...you will love next week's episode too then! It is a little scary at first diving with sharks, but once you get used to seeing them and learning their behavior it can become a very peaceful and beautiful experience. And YES we are so pleased with how Sierra's swimming and confidence in the water is coming along...so a joy to watch her come into her own out here 💕 Thanks for your support and for coming along on the adventure with us Dwight!

[@colleenoconnor4367]

STUNNING!!! It's amazing how nuggs is becoming a Delos sailor :)

[@svdelos]

She's a proper salty sailor these days!

[@user-hp8fn1wd7t]

Underwater videography is definitely professional documentary quality.

[@pppamelis]

The best part about Delos is they've always captured such great footage but it's like the technology had to catch up with them to reach this level. Definitely professional quality!

[@pppamelis]

This may be one of my favorite videos you guys have done. I was finally able to get my 8yr old to put a snorkel on in the BVI's a few months ago and now he has a serious addiction to finding turtles. You guys always find a way to squeeze in information and I love that you're spreading the word about coral bleaching and how El Nino is screwing with sea life. Very thoughtful, beautiful footage, nice choice in music. Good Job Sierra for being brave and swimming in the ocean! That first time they put their head under water is special and I'm super excited for her. Cheers, Delos!

[@SylerHusky]

oi.... I think I let out a tear at the beauty of the sharks and the whole video. It's so majestic and so calm, it puts me at peace, I feel good after I watch these videos. Thank you, SV Delos Team for sharing your life with us.

[@kevinsmithwoo]

There are very few channels that I actually look forward to new content and this is probably my most favorite. Keep up the amazing work.

[@ginakleinejaeger4997]

This was truly a spectacular video. The underwater sea life, and the clearness of the waters were so beautiful. Brian I love your narration during the underwater scenes. I think I’ve said this before, your videos are on a National Geographic scale, but even better because it’s so personal and we get to share your lives and adventures. Sierra is becoming quite the fish! She is doing great with her swimming, it will be so exciting when she puts her mask into the water for the first time and experiences the amazing world you all have become a part of. She is such a cutie pie. Love you guys. You are a beautiful family.❣️

[@dougmonroe3381]

Many of your dives (this one especially) remind me of the countless hours that I spent free-diving, snorkeling, and SCUBA diving down around the southeast corner of the island of Aruba (then still part of the Netherlands Antilles). The acres of healthy corral, sadly, aren't what they once were in the '50s and '60's of my childhood and teenage years. On a dive that I made sometime around 1995, there was just so much gray and dying staghorn corral habitat. It was sad. But at least I remember what it once was like and still is in places like these waters of French Polynesia. If we don't seriously address the issue of climate change, though, your daughter, Sierra, may never witness such a dive again -- especially as she's still not yet comfortable putting her face in the water to gaze at the wonder of it all! But that day, too, will come. 💞

[@pppamelis]

I think about this a lot whenever we're sailing and how my 8yr old will never see what I saw in my childhood. These kids do care and I believe in them! My son refuses to use plastic straws because he absolutely loves sea turtles and once he discovered his love of snorkeling he started educating himself and found a video about straws. He'll sit down at a restaurant and say "No straw please I'm trying to save the sea turtles". All us older folks can do is plant the seed and educate. Aruba is one of my favorite places - you're so fortunate to have seen healthy coral down there.

[@qaannat]

Man she is growing up quick. She'll be racing you in her own boat soon... : )

[@gregellis6417]

Beautiful video’s, Sierra one day will be the captain of her own boat. More Sierra videos it’s great watching her grow up and learning so much.

[@thomasquigley7040]

Gonna miss this beautiful scenery, but looking forward to watching the boat build.

[@TrzCharlie]

Ah, the highlight of my week is when you guys drop your videos. Makes my day, makes my week. Simply impeccable videography and narration. Sail on crew, sail on.

[@svdelos]

Aw thanks! So happy that we can brighten up your week for you!

[@soggybottom3463]

Great video, thank you. If you're concerned about coral health, stay off the bottom and don't touch in anything but an emergency - keep your gauges tidy and snugged up close. Any instructor such as I was will tell you the same, the difference is obvious in those places that are commonly dived. Don't fight the current, do a drift, lead diver carries an smb. To minimize your chance of attracting unwanted attention from a shark, stay more vertical in the water and create the minimum fuss possible. God bless and stay well xx 🤗🤗

[@holgerlafrenz2895]

You always have very special underwater footage. I'm jealous. I still don't understand why there isn't more that a million subscribers on this channel.

[@debbiecollins1154]

That was absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing your world with us. ❤❤

[@skylar6818]

Just subscribe so in love with just the one video I saw the other day.

[@windrider65]

Just what I need on a wet rainy Iowa day. Stay safe and take care of each other and your little Nugget. From Charlie.

[@svdelos]

Thanks so much Charlie, sending lots of love and sunny vibes to you in Iowa!

[@truckerallister9080]

Well look at that, little smiling face appears on the deck, and the SUN starts shining and a pleasant day 😂

[@ErwanArzur]

during my childhood, i was an avid watcher of Cousteau's documentaries. Every sunday afternoon, i would go to our neighbour's who had colour TV to watch that week's episode (yes, i'm *that* old) and dreamt diving with them... you guys bring back those good memories every week and i felt the same urgency to watch your weekly episode for years now. this week's dive was mind blowing😮 you guys are awesome. hope i'll cross Delos or the next boat one day in an anchorage in britanny !

[@prltqdf9]

3:36 Nice coincidence with the bird there. Perfect chroreography.

[@svdelos]

He nailed it!!! Hahaha

[@grannygear1001]

That woo-hoo can encourage anyone!

[@magnusio]

I'm so jealous of the life you guys live! Thank you for sharing these wonderful experiences. 😍

[@Lordlindef]

Cant wait to see all delos 2.0 damn. 1 day we maby meet

[@SailingBik]

Wauw wauw wauw all those sharks together, the clear water, defenatly on my dreamlist now, you guys rock!!

[@MizzAugust7]

Great Editing Karin !! Youve done the right way for her, blowing bubbles. I was 6, she should do it soon. Throw shiny Pennies in shallow water = Huge thrill for kids. Fish w/ Starish =Stellar catch! 🐠Thank you both.

[@allanmorris4272]

Guys been watching you for a long time now and that shark scene was really awe-inspiring. Awful to see the coral stressed.

[@kitowellbeing3778]

Sierra is growing up so fast and it's amazing to see her swim with you both using the fins. The under water footage is spectacular and the "woo hoo" at the end never gets old. 😂 Thank you!

[@teeheeteeheeish]

You guys are such wonderful parents, I honestly think you should bring one more into this world. But obviously thats a bigger strain on the boat!

[@dougdean3134]

90’ doesn’t give much bottom time. Very cool to see the sharks!

[@shaunbainbridge1584]

Sad to see the Coral bleaching, hopefully it’ll recover. The Oceans are under massive pressure right now even when they look pristine

[@1904-d3x]

Wow the sharks just amazing. Its almost as if the know and scents your vibration you send out.Good and peaceful vibes and the have bounty off good so no need to be hangrey. but so amazingly beautiful. yall happy safe travels. thank you for bringing us along. O and hide and go seek lol she is such a cutie. and great 1st photo of her mama and daddy she is a natural on the camera

[@nathanixslade]

I live in a place called Recife where there are shark attacks almost every month on people with water up to their waists, I find it incredible to see that there are places like these where they don't see humans as food.

[@alskjflaksjdflakjdf]

Thank you for that narration about the sharks, it helps so much to understand what you are feeling!

[@edl617]

Seeing lots of Black tips sharks in your video’s. I remember visiting tropical places in the Navy. The local fishermen would always warn us about them if food is in the water

[@AllenChildress]

You probably have already tried this trick... but our swimming instructor got us comfortable with the water as kids by first blowing bubbles at the side of the pool (something secure) with our chin in the water. I remember practicing in the sink later, and then the bathtub. From there we graduated to getting our eyes under the water still blowing bubbles. And then came the big moment of holding our breath with just our face in the water - and then it went from there.

[@brucerhodes8197]

I just love the dives in the south pass, drifting along with the current among such amazing beauty.. the biggest worry you have is finding someone who'll stay with the dingy and float along above... that's not a time to draw the short straw! lol

[@zanemiller6223]

I recently purchased a 38 ft morgalina I will have to say watching the SV Delos prompted me to give this a try. We are taking sailing courses with a captain to learn this awesome way of life. TY SV crew for your informative videos! ❤

[@phyllismcdaniel-cook946]

Sierra is making such good progress in her activities. Love that you continue to bring us along with your adventures. And this one was fernonal 😃

[@skylar6818]

I have been watching non stop since finding your videos yesterday I wish I had this life so much its hard but omg nature is beautiful

[@helderneves7783]

Hi guys... I've been following you now for a while and you are absolutely gorgeous all together... I'm just a simple person, you know, from nowhere but I do understand now, why you chose that way of living. Well, I'm portuguese and as you'd understand We all have also a strong bound to the sea and obviously it would also be a dream for me such a living with no boundries, just waves, wind, sea conditions, current and... without knowing what tomorrow could/would/will be and it that way discovering the world and all these marvelous things that we can experience, share, respect and enjoy from the wild "blue" and mother nature. Sometimes I get melancholic with your videos because it reminds me also all the great adventures on some beaches and seas that I had with my family. And sometimes I do feel for you and I do understand how hard it can be for you with all these unforeseens... But you're taking it in a such smooth way... with harmony, you know, with simplicity, with certainty. All three of you are very smart people and you have so much experience now that we all can feel, if i can say so, that kind of joy flowing in your veins. With all that courage, I wish you to travel the world 10000 times around and find a million heavens in a 1000 lifetimes.

[@hobbyjay6803]

yet another place for my bucket list... impressive view of all those sharks just minding their own business. well done guys

Hey guys awesome vid. Brian your narration is always a vivid interpretation. Thank you

[@eileenderheim3768]

Great video. Sierra swimming without floaties was fantastic! !♥♥♥

[@mellando9770]

When my kids and I would stay in small places we would pick an object to hide. Like a coin or a toy. That would be our hide and seek. As they got older i would write cryptic clues. Not too easy but not too hard. Made them really think. Much more fun than hide and seek.

[@r.p.3192]

What a beautiful video…. Reminds me of the Cousteau Adventures shown on TV back in the late 60ies and early 70ies when I was a youngster dreaming of adventures. Thanks Delos Tribe 🙏

[@philthomas6123]

pretty incredible story telling and the cinematography was just exceptional

[@georgehiotis]
