In the mid 80's I visited my cousin in Alassio (Liguria, Italy) where her grandfather (from the 'in-law' side) took us sailing on a day trip. I was just 10 years old at the time but vaguely remember the trip and the beautiful sailboat. Particularly remember lying on the bow sprit net, watching the boat break through the water. Fast forward to high school and I was reading 'Kon Tiki' for a school book report. My father sees me reading the book and tells me that I went sailing with the author. Apparently, my cousin's grandfather was friends with Thor Heyerdahl and he was on the boat with us. Alas, crossing paths with a legend and not having the maturity to appreciate, let alone realize, the opportunity.

[@paulas_lens]

A great example of how wonderful each of our stories are, in their own unique way.

[@sandyc6569]

Cool story!! 😊👍

[@Lana_Warwick]

Cool story, if you edit into paragraphs others may also read, appreciate.

[@orneryantics]

Awww that's great! Perfect story for your grands to tell their grands.

[@soggybottom3463]

@Lana_Warwick . If you take the time and effort to have a meaningful life experience of your own, you could maybe relate it here and receive hugs and appreciation. It's surely better than posting sad little cries for attention such as your vacuous grammar monitor criticisms.. Come on! You know it is within you...@@Lana_Warwick

sierra spotting bommies is the flippen cutest!

[@svdelos]

Sooooo precious 🥹🥹🥹

[@willisgemutlich2608]

seriously that is probably my favorite book, even over lord of the rings. i am so happy that people gifted you internet stuff so you can hit me every friday

[@dansmith3177]

13 years ago, after reading Kon Tiki, I searched KZbin for trans-pacific sailing videos and stumbled across the SV Delos channel. I don't remember how few subscribers you had back then, but there was only about 10 videos on your channel at the time. Been watching you guys ever since.

[@svdelos]

Oh thats so cool Dan, glad Kon-Tiki helped you find us and thanks so much for coming along on the ride with us for all these years!

[@mariakay8690]

Sierra shouting ~~~bommies~~~ just made my day! What a skilled crew member :)

[@TheEdge92]

Though ya'll should never forget that we all need "the box" so we can go sailing and get a boat in the first place. Without the box there wouldn't even be sailboats as we know it. So, PRAISE THE BOX!

[@SkylinersYeti]

Giving up the last fresh tomato is a sign of True Love. Crabbing not that different than on the Oregon Coast. We use traps but clean and cook them the same. Last September our group caught and cooked nearly 200 Dungeness Crabs during a week camping trip. Enough to fill our desire for crab until next September. A little shell in the crab is just part of the meal. Early explorers was one thing but today with modern tech is a different world. Keep up the good work

[@strobe4570]

it is so cool that nugget is talking more, so that you can have actual conversations with her, i remember when my son hit that point in life. precious moments.

[@svdelos]

It's so fun! She's even made HUGE leaps and bounds with her vocabulary since this video was filmed, now she is talking up a storm!

[@richb313]

Letting Sierra spot the bommies is a great way to let her think she is helping and part of the crew. The Crab pasta was a lot of work but looked delicious. Seeing that marker on the island dedicated to Thor Heyerdahl and Kon Tiki is something few people will see or remember but anyone born when I was would. Looking forward to next week.

[@svdelos]

She LOVED it 😂 Definitely one of the vids we will have to show to her when she's older to remind her what her childhood was like

[@monkrobertson9175]

Ah, man. This was pitch-perfect Delos. You have it all. Sierra at this age makes me so nostalgic for my niece at that age. Her curiosity, laugh and pure love of mom and dad is about as good as it gets.

[@timshimmin3468]

Really beautiful filming. Thanks for all your hard work. Your dialect is my favourite voiceover on youtube Brian.Such great content..10/10. (..2nd fav is Emilia Fenton's on "Lady and The Owl Man" channel..English Manchester accent)

[@oNeWiCkEd1]

Love the videos, and have done so for close to 7 years now. I find it SO funny the way Brian reads the commercial. Sound like an Austrailian with that upbeat voice 🤣 Thor Heyerdahl was a beast! fellow Norwegian to!

[@HarborsUnknown]

Great video!! Yoda said: Grateful, I am, for featuring me in your moving images, hmmm.

[@livingfree5414]

Tip-- Steam your crab! Its tastier and faster. Simply add 2" salted water in large pot WITH LID add crab, bring to a boil, steam for 15 minutes--done. Keeps the flavor in!

[@DaimyoD0]

To whoever edits these videos, I just want to thank you for the real subtitles. They make a world of difference. It is kinda funny how often people from Parlay, even with English accents, get marked as being "[Kazza]" lol

[@Opium1960]

In more or less 2000 I met Thor Heyerdal at Tenerife. His museum is there at the Feed of a Pyramid. From there he went with the Ra to the Caribbean. Great, nice man.x

[@joninewton3873]

Omg love sierra! So cute, I also love seeing the babies fall asleep while eating!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@lonejensen5798]

I love Thor Heyerdahl - and especially the book Kon-Tiki. I found it on my mothers bookshelf as a child and have read it again as an adult. Being from Scandinavia it came close that there are other ways to live your life. All you have to do is choose your goal and then work stubbornly towards it. :-) The movie from 2012 is also okay.

[@MusicMike939]

One of if not the first experimental archeologists. Good book.

[@dannyisrael9210]

I rarely comment even though I've been with the channel from the beginning, but as someone who was also inspired by TH from a very early age, I also have to say that this video is in a class of its own and a very worthy sequel to The Kon-Tiki Expedition. Just when you think they can't get any better, another one comes along. The quality of the visualization, the editing, the content, the landscapes, the seascapes, the underwater footage, the voiceovers, the technical quality of the imagery, the music, the atmospherics, the sailing insights, keeping a toddler occupied at sea, watching the weather, the current, the depth, the wind, the compass is just unsurpassed by any one else on YT, to my knowledge. Do you write the monologues or put them together on the fly? How do you keep the sailing noises/kitchen noises/wind in the rigging out of the dubbing? Where others are falling back into repetition, you seem to pull fresh, relevant, subtle narratives that creep up on you, out of the fire, every time. And to cap it all, what brilliant parents! I am completely blown away, and the fact that you achieve all this ad hoc, in a confined moving space, at sea.... Puts Hollywood to shame, seriously.... I look forward to the next one...

[@svdelos]

Wow thanks so much for the kind words Danny. We do write out the voiceovers before recording them, and we do have to choose our windows to avoid noise as you mentioned...not too much wind, usually on anchor, and when Sierra is well occupied by something outside 😂 If there is some noise in the background there are pretty good tools to reduce some of the backgorund noise as well in post production. So glad you enjoyed this episode and thanks so much for coming along on the journey with us for all these years!

[@MexicoAdventurer]

We had the book Kon Tiki in our house when I was a kid. Never read it. Wish I had. Now I'm going to, even though I'm an old man, too old for such adventures.

[@luacreskid]

I was going to make a snarky comment about the number of commercials you are doing as part of each show...then you got to Kon Tiki. Wow. I read that when it first came out when I was a kid. Fascinating and again...thank you for the travel-loge you have provided over the many years you have been sailing. All the best.

[@GunnarCreutz]

I read many of Thor Heyerdahl's books when I was young, such as "Fatu-Hiva: Back To Nature", "The Kon-Tiki Expedition", "Aku-Aku: The Secret Of Easter Island", "The Ra Expedition", and "The Tigris Expedition". I have also seen Kon-Tiki and Ra II at The Kon-Tiki Museum in Oslo.

[@crazyj0ranch1]

Oh my gosh, I completely forgot that book. Read it in the early 60s in elementary school and was completely captivated by it.

[@LeonardoCossio]

Ryan, you look healthier and younger! Happy life!

[@MrThomasandersen]

Yet another wonderful vlog ❤ Thor Heyerdahl, was incredible person. He was born in Larvik the next town from I was born Sandefjord in Norway 🇳🇴 He also lived here on the island of Tenerife for many years, like I have and still is. Heyerdahl have built up the Pirámides her on Tenerife and have a whole area that one can visit, a museum that also includes miniature models of Kon-Tiki, an d theories of why their are pyramids all over the different continents. What an explorer he was ❤🌍

[@svdelos]

Oh wow thats so cool! I would love to see the mini models of Kon-Tiki, it's one thing to see the pics/videos but would be really cool to get an even clearer picture of what it was really like. Tenerife sounds like a wonderful place to live!

[@fredthedude2]

@@svdelosIf you ever get the chance you should go to the Kon-Tiki museum in Oslo and see the actual Kon-Tiki raft in person 😁

[@waynefederico9396]

Well that was a treat ~ Next time on a sandy beach when the sun is 11 or 1 o'clock overhead, stand looking at shadows of your heads. Then draw eyes and smiles on your face shadow.. BOOO! BTW music edit was great.. thx guys..

[@GuyFromGeorgia]

Man! I haven't thought about Kon-Tiki since I absorbed Heyerdahl's book back when I was 12 or 13. And I hate to tell ya how long ago that was! Great narration of his adventure. I'm now going to have to go back and refresh my memory of the whole story. It's a great one. Thanks for your effort with this!

[@brendanh8978]

I read Back To Nature a year or two ago, and found his theories about S Americans colonizing the Marquesas fascinating. Has there ever been any genetic testing to follow up his theory? It seeks like it would be pretty easy to test with today's technology. Though he spoke of a fairer haired people that may have died out, so perhaps there is not DNA left to test.

[@svdelos]

Yeah it's definitely worth a re-read! And the movies are great too, there are some newer remakes that are pretty interesting as well as the original ones

[@chrisgriffin572]

Great editing Jordan ! Nice music as well. Hyerdahl books were part of childhood. Wanderlust unleashed.

[@ianscott3180]

Thor Heyerdah also built a reed boat to show that the Atlantic could have been crossed on basic craft. Both boats had problems with waterlogging but he made it. No GPS, radar, AIS, watermaker, refridgeration, generator. Give me an Amel anytime 😀.

[@howardmacho8317]

Brian on Delos and a guy named Chad on Living the Van life are both perhaps the most inspirational men who have mastered their own way of living life! One on the water and the other on land! Cheers to you both for sharing your journeys and showing us that it’s possible to live a life in a most unique and adventurous way!

Just a comment on cleaning Crabs for meat: I have found that using Poultry Shears is a great way to extract the meat from even the most difficult parts of the shell with much greater precision!! Try them to see if they might be a good option for you! 😊

Thank You, Thank You for taking me to my spiritual home in your videos❤. Since my first visit in 1970, and blessed by repeat visits over and over again to Celebrate my Birthday each year, too many years to say. Then random visits since birthdays trips were spent at Truk Lagoon Wreck Diving. I hope when you leave French Polynesia you leave with is instilled in your hearts forever.👍🏻❤🙏🏻🙋🏻‍♀️🇦🇺

[@markbennett9787]

Heyerdahl’s book was published in 1948 when I was five years old. A little bit later inspired by the raft building I used to make small balsa wood models of Kon Tiki , attempted to waterproof them with brown shoe polish( very messy) and float them in the streams around our house in the Derbyshire ( Eng) countryside.

[@kmrbsc]

The marker to Thor Heyerdahl and Kon Tiki is pretty awe inspiring. Thanks for caring enough to post it!.

[@larssolem2507]

You shold have mentioned that Thor Hyerdahl came from the small country of Norway and had a crew from seven (as I remeber) differtent countries. That is truly an amazing sail/drift. Some of the stories from the south pacific got me into sailing nearly 60 years ago, also fuelled by my grandfather took me to see the Kontiki raft at the museum in Oslo. Thanks for telling this amazing story to everyone that watches your channel

[@rebar-king]

Playing with Kazaa on the swing are awesome memories you made for Sierra!

[@kevintikivik]

This episode had too many favourite parts... besides my second best Captain (next to NBJS). Brian, seeing you being the man that we "sea", I was most proud when your little one was watching the shores better then the both of you... We all imagined Siara will be a great ocean person, but to see it, its priceless... Siara! if you read this in the future, trust your knots. our souls are believed through the sea. when your ready to do the north, my people will be there to love you and bring you to those places... FYI, climbing is a great sport, but sailing is our blood line. With Love, Kevin Tikivik

[@JANYE444]

Mental wellness before physical wellness. then it all will start to fall into place. head-space is such an awesome sponsor for all of you. I found Delos when i was 15 and I am now 24. you all have inspired me so much, your Buddha was one of the first that caught my eye and has been a very important part of my path. cheers and love from Montana

[@SmogandBlack]

Fantastic video. And Kon Tiki's tale inspired so many people... I wasn't born at that time but my mom told me countless times how much the whole world, worn out after the bloodiest war anybody had ever seen, rooted and cared for those 6 souls at see, wishing that something peaceful and noble could finally replace war bulletins, deaths and destruction on front pages. Then, when she thought I was ready, I had to read the book 🙄😊...

[@ragnorremix8426]

I really liked the music and editing style in this video has a fresher style than other videos you've done I don't mean that in a negative way

[@johnparker7945]

Sierra on Bommie watch is the best!

[@sjurgabriel]

Thor Heyerdahl was from my home town Larvik, so naturally we learned about his expeditions in school. He also "sailed" rafts made of reeds (Ra I & Ra II) over the Atlantic from Morocco. The last of them ended succesfully in Barbados. Cool to see you visiting the site they landed with Kon-Tiki! As always; enjoyable video from you!

We went to French Polynesia and stayed in Moorea for a week and a half and then went to Bora Bora for a week and a half. We didn't want to leave. It was heaven on earth. Truly paradise. The people and the culture was absolutely amazing! I remember those crabs being everywhere. The locals called them coconut crabs. Their claws can crack open a coconut that's how strong they are. I hope you guys go to Bora Bora. French Polynesia is like Hawaii was 75 years ago. Unspoiled and so beautiful!! Wish i could have been crew with you. I can show you amazing places to snorkel and scuba dive!!

[@koborkutya7338]

Heyerdahl has been my personal idol and hero since age 7 when I first read about the Ra expeditions, when they crossed the Atlantic on a papyrus boat built in Northern Africa based on Egyptian paintings in the pyramids. Then Tigris, a similar boat built out of tortora reed in Iraq and sailed across the Persian Gulf to India then to the Sinai and finally to Djibouti (didn't sail to Egypt only because there was a war in 1973 on both sides of the Red Sea). I found out about Kon-Tiki expendition and their incredible year on Fatu Hiva later. The man was the true heir of explorers. And one thing he definitely demonstrated is that sea does not divide but connect places, sailing is often not a difficulty to get places but rather a great opportunity and that our ancestors were not more stupid and adept at sailing the high seas than we are today. Kudos to you for taking the time to commemorate him. Thank you.

[@Yehoshuasministries]

U guys R Awesome! Remember what the scriptures say ...Take no thought what ye shall eat nor drink ..The Lord provides Everytime doesnt he? He's Awesome 👍❤

A favorite dish for our "King Crab Pacific Northern Ca HUMBOLDT BAY IN THE REDWOODS Crab is a Crab Louie. Its a salad, the traditional dressing is the pink stuff but you can do whatever you want on it, lettuce and everything. Might be hard to do in french poly with the problem sourcing salad stuff ! I've even been out on crab boats helping ! Didn't get sick either ! That said, I turned down the Irish Coffee !

[@wildaltarose]

There is nothing better than fresh crab…but a lot of work. You showed others that it doesn’t come easy. Love that you told everyone about the Kon Tiki Expedition. My parents told me about it when we lived in Venezuela in the fifties and I never forgot. It was a real treat to see where they ended up.

[@svdelos]

Yep it was definitely one of our more intense catch and cooks, but totally worth it! And we still had more left over crab for the next days too :).

[@philpaige9770]

Kon Tiki was a very influential book for me to read as a child and has always stayed with me and maybe because I was born 3 months before the journey began. But it is no doubt the prime element instilled in my soul that lets me follow your adventures and those of other full time sailors. Thank for following Thor Heyerdahl in his wake.

My last day of radio therapy and I arrive home, switch on the computer and I see a Delos video. I have been watching you guys for years now and I feel happy when I see what you are up to next, crab hunting.

[@PreacherwithoutaPulpit]

Thanks for all the laughs and truly stunning views of God's wonderous creation. The story you shared was amazing and although many will see it as simply man realizing that those in the past were much more capable than we give them credit for. I see it as yet again our loving creator showing that through His divine providence all things are in fact possible. You and your family are always in our prayers and hopefully some day you will come to find the peace, love and comfort we enjoy if you don't already. Not that you're not having fun and enjoying life, yet there is so much more to it. I've been watching for years now and got to thinking. I mean how much would I have to hate all of you and everyone involved with the channel as well as your viewers to not share the peace and joy I've found. Below I am going to link my research that has opened my eyes to truth I'm ashamed to say I neglected for most of my life. So I ask you all to at least please read it and not dismiss it out of hand without looking into it. Please I beg you read this entire comment, this isn't about me but the love I have for fall of you. This just may be one of the most important things you ever see and will direct you to something much, much more important than you could ever imagine. It is not the ramblings of a madman or someone who is deluded but is based on sound research and brings to light truths most have never seen. The reason I believe in the God of the Bible, the inerrancy of Scripture and that Jesus Christ is my Lord and Savior. We have a reliable collection of historical documents written by eyewitnesses during the lifetime of other eyewitnesses. They report super natural events that took place in fulfilment of specific prophecies and claim that their writings are via divine inspiration and not from men alone. The super natural events are important in that they show the divine nature of God. Jesus Christ cast out demons, healed the sick, blind, deaf, dumb and paralyzed, walked on water, fed thousands with little, and was resurrected all of which have eyewitness accounts. The feedings alone were witnessed by the thousands He fed on the two separate occasions that we are told of in the Gospels. John tells us that there were many more miracles than what are recorded in the Bible/Gospels and that it would have filled volumes of books upon books were he to have written them all down and that it would have taken more than one lifetime to do so. The claim that men wrote the Bible so it can not be true means that no other book ever written should be believed, no matter the topic as they're all written by man. The Bible is not just a book it is a collection of books which are linked together by One Divine Author. In this collection of books there are over 40 authors but only one Devine Author, (the Holy Spirit), who links them all together over a period of 1500+ years for the New Testament alone. Those authors wrote down His inspired Word given to them by God. 66 Volumes/Books in the Bible. The bulk of the New Testament was written over a period of around 50 years. It was in 49 AD to 53 AD when the Scripture writings of the New Testament are thought to have begun. With the last living Apostle John dying in 100 AD. Over a period of around 1500 years it was preserved and passed on: In 3 Languages On 3 Continents There are 66,360+ source documents that have been found for the entire Bible of which there are 24,360 and counting source documents for the New Testament alone. 5,839 in the original Greek, some 2 million pages 18,524 translations of that Greek into other languages Some of the oldest sources date to 125AD which is within decades of the completion of all the books that were canonized as the New Testament. The New Testament cannon, (Gospels of the Apostles/writings, Epistles/letters to the early Churches, all sources and eyewitness accounts that were to be included), was decided at the Synod of Carthage in 397 AD. Those asking for "Scientific Proof" about the Bible are either ignorant or asking with evil intent. An intelligent person knows that the scientific method can not be applied to verify the Bible. Scientific Method is: 1) Has to be observable. 2) Has to be measurable. 3) Has to be repeatable. Therefore no history can ever be proven via scientific method. You must use the historical method based on: Eyewitnesses accounts. Documents from the time or as close as possible. Make sure the story is corroborated by as many sources as possible. Look for anyone/anything that attempted to prove any of it false in that time period or as close to it as possible. Did anyone successfully prove any of it untrue? If they had/have why is there no record found anywhere of it ever being disproven? Luke = Historian A man of science, a physician, an educated and logical man who researched and gathered the accounts of eyewitnesses. He recorded the actual eyewitness accounts of our Lord and Savior, those who had heard Him speak and were present/saw the signs/miracles He performed. He did this because the life of those eyewitnesses were coming to an end due to age and he was inspired to write them down via the Holy Spirit before they could be lost or perverted by time. John = Evangelist John is organized around 7 specific events/signs/miracles all seen by eyewitnesses and corroborated by many. So he also provides proof of accuracy/truth. Mark = The shortest of the Gospels and is very direct or "Just the Facts" if you like. Mathew = Was written to the Jewish audience and that's one of the reasons for the extensive genealogy of Christ. There are also more references to the Old Testament in his gospel compared to the others. Peter = He lays out all the proof for the Bible and it's accuracy in 1 Peter Chapter 1. He makes the arguments that justify it all as truly what happened and that it all happened as recorded in the Gospel/New Testament, the entire Bible. All of the Apostles were eyewitnesses of Jesus and/or of the resurrected Christ. Including Paul whom Jesus came to as he was on the road traveling to Damascus to persecute more Christians. This would have been the resurrected Christ or a form of Him that came from Heaven. There were at least 300 eyewitnesses still alive when Corinthians was written who could have disputed it but no one did. Mathias became the 12th Apostles after Judas hung himself so the argument of there not being 12 Apostles comes from ignorance or evil intent. There have been over 25,000 archeological digs in which there has been absolutely no evidence found that proves anything in the entire Bible false but in those digs many things have been found that prove it true. This is one such video in which archeological evidence that has been found adds to the veracity of Scripture, the video is "The Archaeology of Jerusalem with Ton Meyer". We don't need finds such as these to know that the Word of God is true but out of His love for us He's preserved and allowed them to be found. This video is on the "Institute from Creation Research" channel and is just one of many they have that proves the Bible true. Other cultures and non believer's historical documents show or corroborate people, places, wars and many things that are in the Bible. Yet none of them prove any of it to be false, in stead they have strengthened it. Word for Word Translations prove just how accurate what we have is when you consider there's no way anyone could have falsified any of it, be it via intent or mistakes. Many church fathers in history have made extensive notes that include scripture throughout the centuries and no matter the time or place all those references to scripture corroborate each other. Which shows just how accurate translations have been throughout time and still are as long as they maintain a word for word ideology during the translation. To falsify any of it they would have to change every single source, do it in three languages, on three continents, over a span of thousands of years, with no one catching any of it, no one ever talking about what they'd done, leaving behind no traces that they'd done it. Not to mention they'd have to steal all of those sources to change them, changing them would be a massive undertaking considering they were hand written in those times and then put them back without ever being seen or caught during the entire process. My last statement is this: Simply put the Bible can defend itself like a lion just let it loose. (Use Scripture to defend Scripture because it is a collection of eyewitness accounts that has been proven true again and again). You must know that God our Father and our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, the Lord of Lords and King of Kings, that although He hates the sin, He loves the repentant sinner. If people will just come to Him and repent in their heart of hearts of all their sins, and proclaim Him as their Savior, their Lord, the Son of GOD. Just look around, you know time is growing short. So I beg you don't waste another second as we know the Rapture will occur in the twinkling of an eye. Maranatha!!! There's a very good movie titled "The God Who Speaks" that covers much of what I've said above. If you still have doubt I would recommend you watch it and even if you don't because it was very well made and presented. Take care and God Bless

Hello from Sunny Fort Collins, Colorado. Most inspirational sailing video, ... so far ;-). Well done. Drone footage, underwater footage, local flora and fauna footage, cooking with friends, local history (Kon Tiki), sailing lesson (bommies), and seeing Sierra so happy at being given a job. You guys have really mastered your craft. Who knew that one guy quitting the corporate cubicle could end up being such a blessing to so many of us.
