BEST SAIL to Jewel of the Maine Coast + Classic Wooden Schooner Tour - Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 305

We have one of the best sails in Maine so far! We’re on our way to a super quaint little town called Camden. After being out in some of the more remote Islands for a few months we are in desperate need of some fresh food and boat parts. The trees are changing color and we fall involve with this cute town. So much sailing history here! Brian meets some of the local wooden schooner captains and goes on a private tour of some pretty impressive boats.
Hope you enjoyed the episode! Much love from us! Kazza, Brian and little Sierra

Ah Camden Harbor, all the nautical history, beautifully maintained yachts... and then we roll in with giant solar arrays and jerry cans all over deck, cue the banjos😂

[@svdelos]

The Beverly Hill Billies of sailing :)

[@donnakawana]

I love that tho.. It's like walking in to a home that's lived in, an one that's kept like a museum. Beautiful to visit but I wouldn't want to live there... Lol.... I love that you both live it!!! ✌️

[@Taisen_Des]

Yes. The lovely sea gypsies have arrived. 😅 🥰 👋👋

[@CaptOutlandish]

Hey thanks for stopping in Camden! You can always count on me to talk about schooners! Hope you guys are having fun down south, as we have been getting plenty of snow up here!

[@tomb.8485]

Thanks for the education, it was very interesting.

[@seanelliott7504]

I have been watching Delos and all of the great characters sailing on her for years. It just hit me who Brian reminds me of...Bob Vila! The early days of This Old House. 21:58-22:13 In his yellow rain slicker. Combined with years of seeing Brian's ability to tinker with and repair just about any mechanical issue. Love you guys, Hope all is well.

[@outdrsman]

Soooo true

[@sxtn102]

TOTALLY Bob Vila!!! I never realized it before, but you're RIGHT!! Maybe THAT's why he feels so like home!

[@mopedinthemalverns6661]

Superb. I have to say that interview you did on the schooner was excellent - you never once talked about yourself or butted in to the voices of the two men you were talking to. I learn't loads, was deeply involved with the story and you have risen greatly in my estimations! If only we coudl all interview like that! Thanks again for being the best thing on KZbin.

[@laurenvaughn3282]

Agreed. Brian is so smart, but never pretentious.

[@svamandolin3546]

agreed. Seeing those on the water in Camden is just beautiful.

[@rogerstone3068]

LOVE that. 25:05, Sierra pokes the lens with her finger, because it keeps staring at her; but she knows that's not good to do, so she shakes her head, telling herself; it's a no-no, don't do that. She's become the star of your show, and you know it.

[@DawidNaudeIrishSettler]

Sierra are absolutely gorgeous. Enjoy these moments at fullest. Only a few more weeks then she are going to speak like a LITTLE Princess. Congrats on another great video and thanks for sharing those old LEGENDS with us... 🤠

[@nhreef]

Was watching today and it dawned on me how much this channel has matured. At the beginning it was the college kid. PARTY all the time... sun and bikinis and booze. Some where around south Africa was college graduation. Brazil and the Caribbean was someone in their 20s. Still lots of parties, but much more substance and thought. A wedding... a kid and this season was most definitely the 30s. Amazing to be able to experience the life of Delos may we live to see her grow to a ripe old age.

[@nhreef]

Ps... Kieran if you see this it is me from the DFAC. ;)

[@abbyduell8331]

I can always tell when its a Lisa video, the music gives it away, love her tastes!!

[@willmontgomery6221]

Love how you are able to record such wonderful memories for the nugget...what a gift for her and her family when she's grown!

[@Cturnerwrite]

Nothing short of amazing experiencing the tour of the 1882 schooner! And Brian, your respect for the way it was, is 100% respectful of how sailing was and how it is now! Kudos to the Captain and crew!

[@moonbubbles3046]

The nugget is so stinkin’ cute she gets my heart every time.

[@kevinstruke1031]

Me too. It's been fun watching her grow. She'll be talking before we know it.😊

[@sxtn102]

...and running the show!

[@sxtn102]

It just calms my soul to sit down and fill up with the gentle loving family that you've become. And I have to admit... that baby Nugget is such a joy to watch! She has a deep thinker in there that will be interesting to watch as she grows. Mom's looking a bit exhausted these days... hoping you are well, Kazza, and just reflecting the effects of trying to keep up with the little one. Looks like your days are numbered in the north so a Bahama adjustment may be just what the doctor orders! Y'all take care and keep us updated! Much love, guys! Lynn

[@corporalclegg914]

02:50 - Sierra RagDolls on Kazza. Cuteness Level Hits Eleven

[@nyshawn]

Little Nugget's eyes are simply amazing. Just freeze the video at 24:37 and look at her fullscreen. So beautiful. Thanks for another great video, guys!

[@brandonboand]

Brian & Kaz, as much as I miss senior Brady , Blu and all the wonderful crew members you brought aboard. I truly love watching the 3 of you grow as the beautiful sailing family you are. Always have been a huge inspiration in my life. So thank you and all the best for The Delos Family ❤

[@sailingmumma2087]

Oh my goodness, how CUTE was Sierra's face when she touched the camera and was told no! She shook her head as well 😂 Nawwwww

[@jericlarke3809]

Seeing Maine thru your eyes is really special❤️‼️

[@shannonlee3671]

Beautifully crafted old boats...can't get enough of all that woodwork. My dad is a carpenter but builds Victorian and Queen Ann furniture and other things when he isnt building houses. So i grew up with a good appreciation for the amount of craftsmanship that goes into all that wood.

[@qbeard1]

I love the simplicity of old school.

[@TheKatherine1958]

I say it every episode- Sierra! You are such a joy! ♥️

[@thememorytraveler4978]

Camden is stunning. Thanks for this weeks respite! I love the old schooners! 🤍

I'm 15 minutes in the 80' north series and LOVING IT! It' so different.

[@wayphun72]

You guys are so awesome, the way you have assembled your little onshore team of editors and your natural knack for filming what matters is amazing. This channel is so real, and sincere....I've been here since the beginning.

[@sandycrane1739]

All the generosity gives one hope for our world. God Bless

[@cahtx8607]

Love that little town. So pretty. I really enjoyed seeing the old boats.

[@browsman2328]

Brian has a talent for showing interesting things on shore, and such a soothing voice. Kaza is good with that too and Sierra is cute. Just a good interesting team. Thanks guys.

[@dv2u2]

I had a huge belly laugh when the nugget was laying there with that suit on! Thanks lol

[@stimpsonjcat67]

The rest of us miss Leesir too.

[@RoyalAtenea]

Another great episode to start the weekend, thanks Kazza, Nugget :) and Brian.

[@bob_._.]

It's so neat how they have the floating docks instead of just mooring balls. I've never seen that before.

[@richardnwilson]

They do that to save space in the harbor. Two boats in the space that one would normally take up. It can be good if you like your neighbor! In rough weather though your boat is banging against the dock and it's nowhere near as nice as being on a single Mooring.

[@bob_._.]

@@richardnwilson Obviously. But it also makes a more stable platform for transfers than bobbing alongside in the dingy and so, safer.

[@baukejoosten]

Hang on @SVDelos, 2021 is better!

[@fargneta]

I look forward to all your videos, you have the ability to take me to those beautiful places through your beautiful stories. You are a fantastic family and I think your daughter is a very lucky child, to have 2 special people like you... A greeting and a hug from Italy, and if you ever want to come to Rome, know that you have an apartment in your own free arrangement. I love you, and I wish you all the best in the world ... !!!

[@DeathB4Dish0n0r]

Im from Northern NY and seeing the coast of Maine is such a amazing way to see some history. You just showed me something I've never seen before. Be safe! I love the videos!

[@hondapilot]

One of your best videos. Totally legendary. We got to enjoy those gorgeous old boats and their dedicated captains. Awesome

[@SpencerPhotography]

After watching a ton of sailing channels for the last few years - this one hands down is the best. I love the bits and pieces of history, historical background on locations, etc. Well done as usual. Cant wait until next Friday!!

[@rodantesacdalan4337]

Nice sailing god bless your family all the time!

[@collinsganson5115]

Loved the old boat tours. And Camden is gorgeous.

[@elizabethfrench6855]

Loved this one...so near and dear to my heart! My father-in-law was the last lighthouse keeper on Curtis Island and my husband and his 5 siblings (and parents) lived on Curtis island year round for 5 years. Did you get to go into the light? My husband was the Harbormaster in Camden from 1990-2002 and friends with Captain Ray Williamson. Did you go hike Camden Hills State Park, Mount Battie? Thanks for visiting our little town and thanks for sharing this video!❤️

Nuggs already knowing to grab the water nozzle at the end of the video to get a drink was stinking cute as hell !!!! :)

[@nick.caffrey]

The opening shots of Sierra in her warm weather gear were so funny! She is beginning to have her own personality! No, better put: her own "personhood".

The facial expressions of Sierra are priceless!

[@feathersky860]

LOVE YOU ALL ❤️ 🙏🏽 ❄️ Thank You ALL. For the GREAT ADVENTURE

[@bobbijeselskis47]

This video brought me so much joy! I’m a Mainer, born and raised, Camden and Bar Harbor are near and dear to my heart. My husband and I celebrate birthdays and anniversaries in both places. So glad you got to enjoy Maine and all it’s goodness!

[@petermcgreevy6386]

You have gained some great down to earth people through your blog like Ben the lobster delivery man.

[@williamdykes2750]

Those few minutes of video on the schooner are some of the most interesting you've ever shown.

[@odysseytecharts8144]

The title of this episode gave me flashbacks of the passage to the Andaman Islands... the other Jewel of the sea. Put you glamors on!

[@Porkins69]

As Ben Franklin once said, “if you don’t like the weather in New England, wait a minute.” Fair winds Delos!

[@jmcmurrah]

What a great episode - the tour of the wooden schooner was mesmerizing!

[@californiakayaker]

Yes, I remember those cold winds in the Pacific, Far north California . Not especially cold, wind breaker with heavy shirts at a minimum. Had a wind breaker fleece , it was stolen at a coffee shop down town Eureka. Miss that thing.

[@johnburke9940]

Hey Delos! We have all loved (and lived vicariously by) your adventures through the years. It is really great to see you guys amping up our home waters of the northeast, especially the Gulf of Maine where many great sailors have been born and bred! Absolutely love your channel over the years. Cheers!

[@YachtBuoy]

What an amazing place! Amazing boats, great people and breathtaking scenery!

[@nakamakai5553]

What a great episode! Your deep-dives into the local culture, people, and idiosyncrasies are pure highlights for those of us following your adventures. I may never get to Camden ME, but it already has a special place in my memories. Thank you!

[@jbk1961]

I happened to be in Camden visiting my mother when you were there. So wish I could have bought you a beer! Curtis Island is named after my great great grandfather so my roots there run deep and kudos for the schooner tour.

[@davidc6510]

Very chill episode - relaxing as well as cold - for some reason it felt extra cold and I had to wrap a blanket around me while I watched - lolz. The schooners were amazing. Thanks for another great video!

[@danmeehan1390]

Too funny with the Nugget laying there with her snow suit on!

[@robbylafont]

wow...that schooner is amazing...thanks for the tour....they knew how to build a boat back in those days....also...love the daddy/baby nugget interaction segments at the end....you are a great dad....I wish there were more Kazza/baby nugget interaction segments....

[@michaelboso9355]

Lovely editing, Lisa! Such wonderful music. Thanks!

[@NicholasNRB.Barnett]

The condensation is because you have poor airflow throughout the cabin, the moisture is from all of your breaths and the cooking and showering all adds to the condensation on the windows. you need better airflow, you need an evacuation fan or some kind of evaporator like you suggested Kasa. Example: For an office, the recommended ventilation rate is 20 cfm per person. The occupancy of a general office is one person per 80 to 150 sq. ft. An office is 40′ x 60′ or 2,4000 sq. ft. Occupancy = 2,400 sq. ft. / 150 sq. ft. per person = 16 people. Airflow = Q = 16 people x 20 cfm per person = 320 cfm Brian you got this!

[@NicholasNRB.Barnett]

@@charonstyxferryman Ok, it seems as though you are super smart on this topic. Who said anything about circulating the “same air”, do you even know what evacuation fan means? You have won the internet Laaaarzzzz!!!

[@willsoles]

Thanks for this video. My mom would sail on either the French or the Bailey each summer for the last decade of her life and it was always the highlight of her year. She's been gone now for nearly a decade, but it was great to see the place she loved through your eyes. Be well and safe journeys.

[@laurenvaughn3282]

I just love you all. Thank you for letting me come along for the ride.

[@donburnett8629]

My wife and I plus another couple had a 6-day charter on the Windjammer Lewis R. French based in Camden. Check out the history of this and other windjammers. Just an outstanding experience which I would unreservedly recommend. Glad you got see Grace Bailey but my heart is with Captains Garth and Jenny on the French! Camden is most everything we love about Maine.

[@douglastoney2843]

I've followed your adventures all over the world. It is wonderful that you are discovering the rich sailing heritage of Maine. I've spent a week on the Grace Bailey. It was fantastic. We sailed through some tight spots that would have made me more than a little nervous at the helm. I've made multiple trips on the Stephen Taber in Rockland. Captain Noah runs a great schooner down there. Not only is the sailing adventure great on these Maine schooners, the food is unbelievable. The feasts that they prepare on a wooden stove is amazing. The lobster (soft shell shedders) on the beach is unlike anything I've had elsewhere.

[@3rubberboats]

After the window frames have warmed and dried, get enough camper mounting tape (made by Frost King) to cover all the metal around your windows. This will keep them from sweating. Window plastic will keep the glass from sweating. Hope this helps. Another great adventure video and thanks for sharing. Have a super wonderful day.

[@fairman14065]

So much love!

[@jginmt]

I was on the crew of Victory Chimes the summer of 1975. It was quite a sight to see all the schooners leave Monday mornings and sail in Friday night. That summer I fell in love watching Friendship Sloops sailing. Whenever I got the chance I would visit shipwrights. There was a group that built boats with tools from 1800s it was amazing to see their work.

[@ABeriault]

Camden Maine is definitely one of the loveliest township in the Eastern States! Quebec people love to spend time there in the summer....we also sail there from the Saint Lawrence, Gaspé and the Northumberland straight! Been there on my Bayfield 26 to long ago to remembre details! Lovely clip as usual...DELOS is the greatest! Cheers

[@timothyburns4914]

Camden looks amazing. My dad used to own Schooner Olad up there, I think I saw her in a few of your drone shots. The power of the schooner from the 1850s to the early 1900s was unmatched in New England. I love working on the tall ships up here, and I'm glad you got a taste of it.

Thank you so much captain and crew. I've been loving your videos for year! The speed you travel is Great, I've watched chasing bubbles and every time I wish he never left that life. I miss babs, and the early years. I love how you have managed to changed thing up. The Indian Ocean crossing then Madagascar and south Africa. You have a prospective I can't possible related with, I've traveled, even spent 6 months living in a VW van in Mexico, but you are of the People of the World. I would love to hear more about your prospective of the news and world at large. So you have no plans... PLEASE FOCUS your losing me I've been watching every week for years, you were posting in the south pacific when I first found you. As a juggler I found your fire spinning video from Thailand . From there its been every week. PLEASE FOCUS on anything, science and education, start planning a Home Schooling class, or politics of the world Good and Bad and Why, small communities why they work and what makes them great good or ok. I feel the creative drive slowly slipping away. maybe I just miss brady, and the craziness of the old days. Brian I think you would make one of the best science educators. Just pushing it in that direction a little more could help. If you just broke down how you get in to your projects, getting things apart how they work, and how you manage to get things back together. It is a wonder How you keep that boat going. Thank you for all your years of home videos.
