i'm 80 year old, and I joined May 17, 2007. I've watched a lot of your amateur Videos. Your expertise in Video's made in the last seven or eight years, look close to professionally done. I watch all of your videos, enjoying them vicariously! Keep up your travels, we love them. Bill, in SoCal.

[@aussieview124]

I'm in my 60s now. After watching your videos I figure, it would have been nice to spend 10 or 15 years living a different than standard life style. I'm sure the years spent adventuring and exploring will only add to the quality of your whole life. I encourage younger people to watch videos like your and to do things different than the norm. You videos are fun and interesting .... keep 'em coming.

[@svdelos]

Aussie View Thanks for the great comment and following our adventures!Cheers,Brady - s/v Delos

[@SecsSells]

+Aussie View Don't let your 60's stop you! Get out and do it. It may not be a Delos type adventure but certainly you can get outside the 'standard life style' for a year or two. Don't regret what you did not do, 20 years from now!

[@rudyserna8663]

+Aussie View - Dam Fla is right! Go out and do it! Your post is now 10 months old - are you still regretting not having done it! I joined a sailing association sometime ago and go sailing at least once a week. I've met a lot of crazy fun living sailors and made some good friends! I've also sailed and worked aboard 2 square rigged tall ships as crew and loved the climb to the top of the main mast/fore mast to enjoy the views from 100 feet above! Enjoy today - there are no seconds! Go chase the sun! Fair winds, young fella...

[@deepdivedelight]

I am 60 starting now

[@AfricanFlightStar]

After following you guys for the past 12 years or so, I thought it would be fun to come back and see where and how it al started, and what yur videos looked like back then 😄 Isn't it truly amazing how far one can go, and grow, both geographically, technically, and intellectually, culturally, and in so many more ways, if one just has the courage to START. Could you ever have thought, Brian, that with one decision that you made back then, to buy Delos instead of a house, could lead to all that has happened since? .... Wow, when I think back on what my own life was like when I first started watching you, how your videos helped me get through so many dark days, and how I got hooked on your story, and then started dreaming of my own adventures ... What a journey is has been, and how wonderful for all of us, your biggest fans, to have been able to follow along on this incredible adventure with you all, and to be so inspired to make our own dreams come true. We can't thank you enough, nor wish you too many good wishes, for all that is yet to come, for you & Kazza & The Nugget, Brady & Blue, and all those beautiful souls who crewed for you over the years, every one of them was so special in their own unique way. It's been a blessing, and I send a big cheers to you all! 😊🙏🏻

[@BELLE_MYMAIL1]

It amazes me how the videos have come along since these earlier days! You guys are all awesome to show us this, thank you

[@davidc6510]

A fan of the 2019 video releases it was interesting to go waaaayyyy back to the original releases to see where it all started. Wow the pictures of you young pups, the barely wet salty sea dogs, and all the "amateur" footage. What a long way you both have come from the beginning to where you are now in life. Awesome job mates. Bravo! Fair Winds SV Delos.

[@maddierosemusic]

YOU AIN'T KIDDING!!! I followed them from like 140 all the way to the end. Now I am at the beginning!!

[@daveg4963]

I wish they had a binge watch playlist. Here I am in 2022

[@Dragging79]

Spending the weekend indoors. So i decided to start binge watching from the every beginning. I wished i lived my life very differently and more like delos.

[@goin2green]

I've been watching since 2016 and somehow missed these much older ones during my deep dive back then. Cool.

[@Frankers5]

I can't believe it has been seven years since you launched. Holy Cow! These are the best sailing adventure video's I've seen on the net. Great job!

[@svdelos]

Hey Paul! Thanks so much man, that means a lot!

[@oodits2278]

Came back to the original videos after viewing several episodes of 2020. Great flash back. God Bless TEAM DELOS.

[@Patri-ciaVB]

Thank you for letting us join your trip ...

[@Billdo420]

The Panama Crossing was so awesome. I was lucky enough to watch both passages live. Delos History

[@meg3646]

❤ I just love you guys it’s been a couple years since I started to follow you again, so I’m gonna run all the way through the beginning to the end of your videos. Hopefully this time I’ll be able to contribute some money.

[@dalebuckley6073]

I like these old one's..hard to believe it's been 7 year's

[@chaseragnar5365]

Oh man!! Hard to believe it has been three years more!!!

[@jdaniells1821]

10 years now!

[@jeroen6920]

Hey guys, I love your videos.I can almost feel the good vibes, smell the land, and taste the food. Just awesome! I wish you all the best with your travels and hope you will continue this kind of life style. Greetings from Holland!

[@svdelos]

Klaas Vaak Thanks very much Klass, we really appreciate that! Fair Winds from Singapore. Brian SV Delos

[@gregmiller3764]

Hey Brian! My wife and I recently visited Seattle, because our son moved to Olympia. Seeing the Puget Sound sparked our memory of SV Delos early days starting in Bellingham. So I started rewatching your Vlog from the beginning. Got to episode 5 and really like the raw music in the middle to end of that episode. What band? PS. Your Vlog inspired us so much we bought a sailboat this year. We live in Michigan, so lots of sailing in the Great Lakes.. Love your adventures and you guys are number one!!! Keep it going! Greg

[@BillB23]

From the view point of August 2020 it's interesting to see how far you've come and how good you were back when.

[@tomzito2585]

Also watching in August 2020. What a journey!!

[@mochimochi5198]

Now I am watching July in 2021

[@aussieview124]

I wish Yourtube was around when I was in my 20s. Maybe, just maybe, videos like yours would have called me to a different sort of life. Maybe I would have spent a few (or many) years traveling and exploring, rather than fitting into lifestyle based on work and acquiring.. Keep up the good work your videos are interesting and well presented.

[@svdelos]

Aussie View Thanks man, appreciate the comment. It's never too late to head out exploring! Fair Winds, Brian SV Delos

[@kreed1004]

I am not so interested in acquiring, but the real world works... just how it is. or else the ocean would be full of these guys. :)

[@kreed1004]

they're working too, in a way...

[@984francis]

It works for 50 maybe 60%. So many people depressed and suffering at work. But we're not supposed to say so. "Hows it going? Great" Yeah really. Good, well behaved economic units to make the wealthy more ever so.....

[@camielkotte]

Nostalgic. Music adds to it. Wet eyes.

[@bluehornet6752]

I've watched all of the later videos on the channel (2015-current), but it's fun to go back and watch all these first videos in order. A bit "pulp fiction"-like, in that you already sort of know the ending while watching the beginning. What I want to know though, is that of all the things you could have taken along on your voyage(s)...what made Brady say "You know, I really need to take this green suit along on our around-the-world cruise"? LOL. Going to do some CGI video work on the high-seas, maybe?

[@mikeskor6230]

Those tikis are really interesting. thanks for sharing.

[@sumnerwaite6390]

Corona Virus be damned! SAIL AWAY 🤘

[@belomolnar2128]

Well balanced videos with good music. Thanks. Polite comments. B&E&B.

[@bryanmendoza5112]

hi bryan and brady..im enjoying watching your sailing experience so here i am atarting to watch you journey from the beginning..by the whay luv that background song by bob marley nice version of sun is shining..

[@perrydiddle3698]

Just a couple of thoughts. 💩. Make that a few thoughts. 1st, what’s with Brady & the green suit?😂. There’s got to be a story behind it. 2nd, I’m fairly up to date with your vlogs. However, I’ve started from the beginning just to reminisce. There will be a few that I haven’t yet seen, so, that will be interesting as well. 3rd, you have taken me on a virtual journey with you all. The songs trigger the images in my mind. I have purchased various songs through iTunes. I just wonder if you all ever considered compiling a greatest hits of sorts of the music throughout your world tour. I’m starting my own. But, I would definitely purchase an album from you of you rounded one up. ✌️🤙😎

[@wesleyddavies]

Thank you, Delos! I'm a yes on Ads for your videos (and likes and subscribes and comments, obviously); not so much on patreon, but hoping to help further your journey!

[@TraumaSurvivorCynthia]

Another day of binge watching Sailing ⛵Delos in December 2019!!💙✌🇺🇸 #davesandersstepdaughter 🦋

[@Backcountrytrucks]

I miss Brady , had to be hard for the two brothers to part ways !

[@enderalici]

As a newbie sailor, just started watching your adventures, inspiring stuff. but man, i hope you get better cameras and steady hands in next episodes :))

[@sarale3565]

They did

[@SmoothRuffian]

so Im loving watching your guys' adventures. I wanted to ask if you had previous sailing experience when you crossed the Pacific, or was this your learning curve time? It's very inspiring.

[@svdelos]

+riingram I had a little experience on one ocean sail from Hawaii to Seattle on a friends boat, but I have to say most of it was learning as you go. Of course a little common sense goes a long way....

[@thebooj1]

Thanks to Tom Rowland from the Saltwater Experience for introducing me to your channel. Looking forward to viewing your journey. Cheers

[@klausappel9389]

the green guy walking into the background cracked me up!!!!

[@jesusisablackman]

We miss you Erin, I hope you are well

[@krazymarmot]

editing skills wur top notch early

[@bobcat224]

So who was Erin? I have been watching newer vids and decided to start at the beginning. Was she a sibling, friend, partner?

[@svdelos]

Partner, but we grew apart on our own lives paths. She is doing well in California with her family and we keep in touch. Fair Winds! Brian

[@bobcat224]

Thanks! Keep up the good work. Your journey is an inspiration for many.

[@Crazy--Clown]

bobcat224 I was about to ask the question

[@SecsSells]

Miss me some Erin. Maybe you could have her visit in 2018

[@dafinakrasniqi2521]

Sailing SV Delos she's cute but you and Kazza are very special together and I feel like you are very comfy and just very suited for eachother. I love seeing you happy together.

[@marcss73]

The Beautiful Girls - On A Clear Day

[@carolinabeacher1558]

wish i knew, maybe brian, brady or karen will chime in to enlighten us.

[@cliffmainor4255]

mcdiver94 already gave you the answer... kzbin.info/www/bejne/aJDcp5WIgql2orc

[@Billvill7]

Hi, this might be a stupid question but, how do you secure the boat when all of you are on an island? Is it just sitting there unprotected, is this not really a concern? How does that work. Thanks and love the series so far!

[@sarale3565]

I always wonder about that too.

[@sailer501]

You are talented!

[@keningalls5593]

very nice !

[@nathandonohoe1994]

The early videos remind me of a school project LOL

[@marcricke2275]

great. a buddy kust showed me the link. do we know what music is playing in the background ?

[@aha200971]

Long time ago, but was that Kleins full suspension bike!! ???

[@TheAlbrowniv]

Green man is great!

[@ARTaken007]

bread fruit does not taste like potatoes lol ... anyway love these vlogs

[@drade28]

The Beautiful Girls - On A Clear Day

[@andrehansen585]

Hey. Did u cross marquese Island to Fiji or NZ?

[@bensutton942]

Hi I am been watching a few episodes and also decided to go back to the beginning, I reall like the song in episode 5, around 4.30-5.30 in, with acoustic guitar, any chance you can tell me song or artist? Also as I watch more episodes if there is a good tune is there an easy way to find it?

[@tomzito2585]

The song is credited in the notes below the video. Here's a link to the music video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGS5aYqamsSVa7M

[@jokertt14]

I know this is old .. but you could have green screen anything u wanted on the green suit guy .

[@tomriley5790]

10/11 years late - those words "take 75" little did you now what you were starting, but also oddly appropriate :-)!

[@561union]

thanks

[@agentdomino888]

Props to Brady for not spilling drink all over that green suit while drinking.

[@alexn5561]

this is 7 yrs later, and I don't know why, but I miss the murph-suit-man ;)

[@doomoncharlie]

Who is the woman on the boat? I don't see her on your website as past crew.

[@tomzito2585]

You can learn more about Erin in the blogs she wrote starting in the very early days before leaving Seattle. Here is a link: svdelos.com/travel-blogs/new-beginning-posted-erin/ In the comment section below that blog Brian explains that Erin returned to the U.S. as a paid crew member on another boat from New Zealand.

[@Andrew-fw8do]

How did you come to be sailing an Amel?

[@chriswooddell8765]

what happened to episode 4 lol

[@ToddKesler]

Wow! Almost 14,000 in only about a year thats GREAT!

[@matthewchristian6351]

Quality fucking sound track!

[@noobtuber1976]

who is the mutant hero turtle ?

[@OldSchoolDo]

what is the music at 07:30

[@jessicabrown1089]

Good job uncles can you please shout out me? It’s me shae Shae!!!😛😛😛

[@Aimee_k]

Had anyone noticed the green person in the background 😂😂😂

[@brettkramer]

Always wondered what bread fruit tasted like ever since watching, "Bounty"..

[@svdelos]

Yea, it's quite delicious really. Making breadfruit fries is truly amazing :)

[@TurkishKB]

hell yeah. I wish i would have stuck with filming and editing, maybe ill pick it up again.

[@ahazureus]

So I'm really, really getting into your sailing videos, I don't even watch TV any more, I am like almost addicted, "I said almost", your all are my favorite soap, lol, lol. I noticed tonight, in particular, I am starting to call you by name, like saying stuff like "Ha, that's so cool, look what Brady did or Brian or BABS, I have you on while i work on my book, I am getting to really like y'all as individual persons, and wish you all the blessings of God, I would like to share the Lord Jesus Christ with you all, I know you have lots of time some days when you are on a long sail, I would like to encourage to read Gods word, start with the new Testament, thats the one Jesus Christ made with His Church, Happy sailing, y'all, God bless.

[@ryanmelton4519]

That green dude was weird.

[@erinjones3148]

Whatever happened to that green suit?

[@svdelos]

+Elliot Jones Oh man, it blew away in a squall in Fiji! I bet it washed up in some village and they thought "What the hell is this thing?" In Fijian of course..... Fair Winds and thanks for watching! Brian SV Delos

[@SmoothRuffian]

+SV Delos Sailing What in the world is that suit for?! Is it like a green screen suit?

[@goofyiest]

The green d00de is pretty, pretty creeeeeepy. Just sayin.

[@bigdbigooo7829]

Ok started in the middle. Came back now there is a different chick in it. So what happened do we see a breakup and find a new girl.

[@saana5422]

erin was her old partner yeah

[@joseluiscordoba6445]

Please don't ride wild animals (mantas) as if they were roller coasters, not cool. Just leave them alone and appreciate nature without stressing out the animals.

[@SailBeforeSunset]

Triggered? Let's just be hypersensitive. You suppose that you know that the Mantas thinks it unpleasant to be ridden? Perhaps nature is not the place for you. Stay in the city where you can have nature killed and brought to you for you to consumed.

[@sarale3565]

I also wondered about that.. Seems strange to me to ride a manta

[@markaspaliokas6157]

Those pictures you add to the video really ruins it. They make it boring. Some random pictures and most not even good quality.
