Pulling a Drunk Sailor off a REEF! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 212

[@ericjohnson1322]

Despite a grumpy drunk boat owner you guys pressed on to help him. You are amazing! All of you! Wonderful edit Blue and Jordan!

[@Banditt2222]

Sounds like someone else has picked up the "soft porn" voice!!

[@antayat123]

From the outside looking in, through the lens of their camera, I get the impression that they could've been much harsher with the editing. Your compliment is awesome.

[@Pixxelshim]

A wonderful episode from start to finish. Underwater videography was well done, Blue's recitation from Gibran, Karin's watch and the "drunken sailor" ballad accompanying the rescue worked all together to make the whole. Thanks for creating and sharing!

[@rickc303]

First Delos episode watched on my 1984 Starwind 19, on her first splash in 7yrs, as I spend my first night ever on a boat (in the water). Pure bliss and contentment 😊

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

Mine will be soon!

[@robertadamsmetaldetecting6324]

Good for you! Has to be amazing feeling I imagine!

[@rickc303]

Absolutely is!

I had an '82 Starwind 22 several years ago. Great boats!

[@rambleron5720]

Awesome.

[@mattlewandowski73]

it is wonderful how the cruiser community comes together to help folks in need

[@castaway123100]

Unexpectedly beautiful episode. I like the new intro and the poem "for that which is boundless in you abides in the mansion of the sky".

[@MrStewPedaso]

You guys and girls have so much of my respect. You have the courage to do what so many of us only dream of doing. I use to dream of cruising the world when I was young but now all I can do is dream about what I could have done. You rock.

[@TonyGariepy]

8:12 Deep Blue! Love the beautiful dive shots! So glad Tobago worked better this time. Thank you for being all that you are.

[@kennethparker1032]

Very well done indeed!! The "Captain" was right about one thing, Brian was the only sailor!

[@dianerearick6056]

Love the quote. I feel that my home is the whole earth and I hope to meet it all. I know I will fall short, but you all have helped me with some of the remotest places I may not reach and for that..... I thank you much🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@michaelhaagman6815]

Thanks guys .. I was getting withdrawals, and then your email arrived .. 😀 The Delos crew are undoubtedly the best ever ..no one else comes anywhere near .. really enjoyed this video.. amazing how you helped out the inebriated so called captain .. he’s an accident waiting to happen .. Gid help those who sail with him .. Safe passages guys and fair winds .. Micky 🌷

[@chascain1]

Is anybody anywhere on this planet living better than you guys? Or having more fun?...thanks for sharing it with us!

I, for one, appreciate Blue’s introspective, and reflective nature. The most worth-while thoughts and conversations revolve around the transcendent truths of life. Thanks Blue

[@markgallagher0000]

the photography through the hole/arch was epic,amazing guys,just brilliant,all in lifes great,plus,pleased you got that guy off the reef,good job.x

[@onvacation9604]

A perfect start in the weekend! Many thanks SV Delos crew.

[@onvacation9604]

and you added the outtakes. awesome!

[@briannaxosjv]

Video quality on dive through the arch was so clean & vivid. Your choice in higher end equipment is noticeable. The drone shots were professional grade. You guys have made quite a jump in all facets of filming. Really next level compared to other youtubers. The women are really looking so healthy & fit. ( need to get a bathing suit sponsership). Thanks for the great video !!

Awesome. I lived in the VI for almost 20 years. Love the islands. I was an engineer on a boat for a while then met a girl on St John and moved over there. Now west of Denver in the mountains. Miss the ocean. Thank you for sharing.

Now, That's a bomb episode ! Worth waiting. Thanx for quality videos. You guys are awesome. ❤️

[@kieranoleary241]

Great video folks. And a maintenance video coming up. Can’t get any better. The guy aground reminds me of the song “the Irish Rover”. That would be a great name for a boat and a great theme tune to go with it. (Except for the unfortunate ending of that boat). Fair winds and following seas.

[@TekTravis]

OMG you guys my heart sunk when I seen that thumbnail on the video ! I thought it was Delos 😲. So glad you are safe and sound ♥️

[@sammyvh11]

When you guys get old your going to love looking at these videos. Its ashame most of us will never get to live the bohemian sailing lifestyle. Enjoy your youth!

[@scyz2807]

Hey "What do you do with a drunken sailor, . . . early in the mornin'" Hard to imagine a better place to put that tune! lol Great episode! And let's see, you've sailed from Tobago to Grenada and back again something like 12 times now? ; - ) Oh, and the last couple minutes were very fun. PS - What I like about my (smallish) boat is that it has a retractable keel. So even if I get drunk (early in the mornin') all's I gotta do is yank up ma keel and off I go! hahaha : - D

[@riverbendtube]

Blue, I’m not on boat but on my land vessel of home. Your quote struck home. Where ever one is...these words are true. I’m blessed to live in and on a remarkable place...wherever that may find me. Thanks for the reminder

[@JustPlainRob]

"You are the only sailor here!" Well, yeah, the only sailor not stuck on the reef...

[@aminyap9337]

It is more complicated than tht.....maybe the yatch owner know something call ""salvage claaim""he hav to denied help ....if not by law it is his obligation to pay for the help rendered if claimed were filed...but i guess sailor wouldnt do that....a friend in need is a friend indeed is best policy..above all law....

[@sailingdream7491]

😂😂😂

[@sailingdream7491]

@Robb Skipper That's true. Though I never owned the boat or sailed on a boat the videos I watch show how different are sailors but one common sense unite them: to rescue and help each other which they did.

Hahahaha too fun. I was the other cruiser lady with Alex on the boat handling his lines. Alex and I were, let’s say “impressed” with the drunken captain’s belligerence. Crazy. He wouldn’t give me the winch handle to wind in the boom...I ultimately had to yell at him until he gave in and handed it to me. Alex and I laughed. I would rescue another sailor with Alex any day.

[@stinkintoad]

Awesome guys! This reminded me of when I ran our 47' Jenneau bare boat on a sand bar in Anagada harbour last May in the BVI's . The cruisers in the harbor were on us like flies assisting and we did a similar method of tilting the mast with a halyard but we needed a boat with twin 200 hp outboards to finally get us off. What we did though was to run a spare halyard off the mast attached to the anchor chain near the end and ran the chain out to starboard with the dighy about 200 feet then planted the anchor firmly in the sand and pulled on the halyard with our powered winch which heeled us over. I wasn't drunk though lol.

[@SeattleLifeguard]

I touched ground going in there on a 45' charter boat, but lucky for me that was all. I had my gf reading the depth aloud and she said, "3...2...1....0...-1...-2..." lol I felt one little bump, but we lucked out!!

[@thecampbells3908]

Killer drone shots! London Bridge looks amazing! Not sure if you've tried this, but put the Mavic in tripod mode. Fly forward so you still have proximity sensors protecting you. Then carefully fly from altitude, down through the opening and climb out on the other side. Then run the vid at like 4x! Love Brian's watch rules! It's so important for there to be a respected chain of command. It seems as though he is a good captain and the crew respects his wisdom. Although you guys don't include a whole lot of technical sailing talk, which I get might get boring to viewers, I do like a little mixed in like when the girls are talking in the morning. The guy has it alllll figured out! Let him sit there if he's stubborn! Great drone shots of him. Well done. LOVE THE OUTTAKES!!!

[@dh4923]

i like Brady's style in not wearing the mic while diving.. the point of diving isn't to have a discussion, wearing a mic detracts from the experience

Just getting a chance to catch up with your episodes again. The scuba googles that you can talk through are awesome, if that's what was talking place. Will have to start where I left off and see where you picked up that nice equipment. Glad you got a big enough team to free wayward sailor from the binds of the reef. The gas usage of a sailboat make it extremely valuable when out and about for days on end, let alone circumnavigating the globe. Excellent intro and outro for the epsiodes as well. Nice video work.

One of the very best techniques for refloating a sailboat is heaving it over. Some seem to think it will damage something, but the mast is built for the strain. After all, it heaves the boat over itself under sail. Good job y'all.

[@jeanguyBouchard2014]

très spectaculaire, une expérience inoubliable.

[@Gladtobeleaving]

In ’86 or so I dove the point off of Cabo San Lucas, where the Sea of Cortez meets the Pacific; surge and swells were so bad that the panga had us all geared and ready to go, then motored in, dropped us all straight down, and motored back out. If you didn’t make it down 60 feet the first try you probably wouldn’t get down at all and the panga would swoop in and pick you back up and get out of there. At bottom surge was like you described at London Bridge, but like an E-ticket ride. Great dive if you ever have the chance.

I either have to split form her and what I have built or give up this dream. I'm not sure if your videos are helping or hurting....Thanks!

[@cheerbeerification]

You only live once. Don't split from her, but follow your dream. If she puts an ultimatum on it, you might end up splitting, but that's her choice. In the end a true partner will support your choices, even if they aren't down for it. Remember it goes both ways as well, you'll have to find something that she has a dream for and support her in it.

[@stephenburnage7687]

That story is so common in the cruising community, me included. But I managed to turn my wife around. The key is to never scare them (no bad weather sailing), lots of cool anchorages, meeting other cruisers etc. Now my wife is ready for crossing the Pacific.
