Our Experimental eco-friendly antifouling project begins- Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 205

Ever wondered how to paint the bottom of a sailboat with antifouling?? After 5 weeks of back breaking work we’re on the home stretch. We start off by sandblasting Delos’s bottom to take her back to the gel coat. After applying 3 coats of epoxy primer it’s time to spray on our new silicon based experimental antifouling paint- SeaSpeed VX 10. It takes about 2 gallons of paint and an airless sprayer to get the job done. After adding a new anchor, end for ending our chain, installing our new convection oven, repairing our leaky rudder, and many many more projects Delos is ready to get back in the water for the new season!

Hi my name is Ray and I am a native America. Five yrs ago I had a stroke and now i can't walk or care for my self. I lived in Santa Cruz.CA . Now I live in the San Fernando valley in a convalescent home. I watched all of your videos and I need to say thank you. When i watch all , I forgot that I can't walk. I love the ocean and I miss it. Again thank you for helping me to forget . God bless and Brian marry the girl , she is right for you. Thanks Ray Elizalde

Best videos are the maintenance ones. Worst videos are the personal drama. This was one of the best.

[@tetraskele9621]

One of your most informative videos. Great job: interesting, educational ... and the usual Delos crew good attitude! So I bet Delos picks up at least 1 knot of average speed trough the water! Hope you keep us all informed as to how well the bottom paint does. Nice touch with the UW Logo too. Fair winds and slippery sailing!

[@bigteddybear5962]

The fact is that this series is all about Brians heart.

[@stevenburgess4272]

I could sit for hours and watch Brian fix things...loved the rudder work...Delos Crew once again can make any video , even the most basic routine work entertaining and educational ...thanks guys, can't wait till you're back on water !

19:12 🤣 I found it quite funny that I’ve been watching and listening to your instructions so closely as if I’m ever going to have to do any boat repairs. Lol The good thing is that a lot of the techniques you’ve shown could be used for other things. Knowledge is always a great tool to have!

I REALLY like how you mix up your WORK, SAILING, ADVENTURE, EXPLORATION, TECH, ROMANCE, PEOPLE, PARTYING and Other stuff you show in your videos. It's all Good stuff Bro and Broettes LOL I don't know if I could have the patience to live on a boat for as long as you guys do even with all the great things you experience. I think I could do it for awhile but I think maybe it could be something that once you do it, it gets in your blood and then you can't live without it. Following you gives us the feeling of being there, wanting to be there, while doing our day by day land lubber lives. Take care crew and THNX MUCH.

[@taistingtheair1368]

PS I have seen you and Delos evolve over a long time and wonder if you could do a compulation of ALL the additions and improvements including drones, lines, electronics, mechanical Passport tips and learned methods both ship and also living with crew members over time.

[@almarkham3470]

Dang Kazza, you are one beautiful and inspired young lady! The entire Delos group always amaze and make me wish I was 30 years younger and living a life such as y'all! The repairs look great, much hard work from all and of course very expensive. Thank you for sharing your lives and adventures!

[@almarkham3470]

Getting a little deeper into this video and Brian you are truly a master mechanic with much knowledge on how to make repairs properly. Great job on the rudder repair and am sure you will have many years of issue free sailing!

[@rcrogers6]

WD-40 was never designed as a penetrant to loosen things. It is also a poor rust preventative. As the name implies, it was for Water Displacement (WD) in Redstone missile silos. Supposedly, the missiles were sticking to the sides of the silos. Kroil is the best penetrant made. A more common one is PB Blaster (although it might affect some seals). These two penetrants are dar superior to Liquid Wrench which is still better than WD-40. Something to consider for your next stuck object.

[@meg3646]

This is my favorite part watching all the repairs. I work for Cummins diesels engines for 38 years and the parts and part of it so I know when you take things apart you need to have everything all the seals gaskets bolts nuts whatever put that thing back together again. When you’re out on the road making repairs there’s no parts store nearby so you have to make sure you get everything they need for the repair and that was my specialty. MG

[@murph914]

Hi Lisa! Good to see you’re still in the family.

[@desolatemetro]

It's such a great boat. The way you do the work (and what you pay people to do instead) is exactly what I would do too. It makes it kind of relaxing to watch. 😄

[@SkertsMagerts]

I just quit my high brow, stuffy, corporate job. My heart is the sea, what I would give to sail with y'all. if y'all ever go north to the Georgia Coast, I have a place there and would love to have y'all! if y'all are ever heading past St. Simon's Island south of Savannah please holler!

[@malcolmquickfall6198]

When you insert new gland packing for a rudder leak. Cut each end of each packing piece at 45 degrees and you have a guaranteed seal. Inserting the packing “end to end” still has the potential to still leave a gap when the gland nut is tightened.

[@tomisaric9686]

@Sayit AsItIs yes u use 45 degre when u want to connect one end to another not on stacking layers of packing

Back in 1990 my friend and i bought a storm-damaged 32' Morgan from the auction in WPB. Over the summer we restored her and performed many of the same things you guys are doing. This brings back those memories so vividly . Love the channel and Happy Sailing

[@scyz2807]

It's great to see the process of keeping Miss Delos clean and pretty! Being a bit on the old side you could say she's had a face lift! lol It will be particularly interesting to see how well the new bottom coating works. Thanks for the details. Scott

[@dougnorthcote3420]

How cool is Kyril to show up and help paint the boat! Talk about a ton of work. Man that guy is a true friend!

[@SailBeforeSunset]

100-pound Mantus? That makes sense. We went with an over-weight 65 pound Mantus for our boat. Ours being a 41 footer that weighs 15 tons, it makes sense with the Mantus that you guys went with. They are great anchors! We also relied on an old really heavy CQR, but it would drag at those times when it should not have. You know, like at 2 in the morning? Yea, that's the time. The Mantus has held through gale force winds of a Beaufort 7 scale - winds of around 40 knots and we were whipping around and hitting hard on the bowsprit. They are heavy, but they REALLY are worth it!

[@canoemantoo1]

Fantastic job Delos crew. Pick your future destination wisely. So far, so good. As for where I would like to see you go, is where ever yall want to go. But warm is better than cold, plus the more remote the better. I reckon I could of simply said: "Keep on keeping on".

[@tomwilliams8675]

Yup, you can automatically hit the thumbs up before watching a Delos video. They are always the best videos on all things sailing. It's going to be interesting to see what the bottom is going to look like in a few weeks. When are you going to sail through the Great Lakes?

[@maryjanekeneipp6623]

I could so clearly feel the relief you all experienced when you were back in your element on Delos in the ocean. I think you are like mermaids, if you are out of the water too long you might die 😊

I know you all get along well but it seems to me that doing all this work together must be a bonding event between you. So nice to have a clean bottom. I love your boat. Thanks for the long video. Everything else comes to a complete stop when a Delos video shows up. Very interesting bottom paint. An 8 year clean hull would be a real blessing.

Eeep, the antifouling those barnacles were probably growing on is death juice. It's preposterously poisonous stuff, because it's sole job is to kill everything trying to grow on it.

[@Chris-fo8wp]

You are going to like that Mantus anchor..it holds like a beast!!!

[@johnandsolehuntley-loomis1767]

When painting and having to tape off an area, apply the tape, then take a tube of Dap or Caulk and apply a bead of caulk at the edge of the tape on the side to be painted. Then use your finger to smear the caulk over the edge of the tape on the side to be painted, nice and smooth and then wait a few minutes, then paint. When you peel the tape off, you will have a perfectly clean line, because the caulk will fill in any tiny gaps between the tape and any flaws in the surface. Love you guys so much. Smooth sailing. You are all an inspiration!

[@Expert1911]

16:19 DEEPLY skeptical of the design on Maggie's tow bar. I think there is more force than you realize, OR way less than I realize! Granted, most of my experience is being yanked out of the water for a barefoot deep water start by a 250 horse Black Max on a ski boat. Maggie isn't packing a 250, but still would be more comforting to see wider flanges (2x) on the base of that bar or more support front to back on it. I don't know, It'll be a hell of a lot of fun for a while at least. :D

[@133slowmaro]

I was thinking the same thing.

[@Expert1911]

@@133slowmaro Maggie is aluminum right? Hard to say if all that leverage will bend the steel tube or the aluminum square tubing first. My money is on stressing the aluminum square tubing.

[@beardy4831]

Agreed. The leverage on that bar, being so high above the mountings, looks like it'd either bend the verticals or maybe even crack off the welds. It'd been stronger to have a tie off point on each side similar to their previous setup but just higher up about 12 inches. With the tall tow bar they may also have a hard time keep the bow of the diggy in the water.

[@Expert1911]

@@beardy4831 Yes, a strap or rope from the top to something forward, even on the bow, would probably go a long way to stabilize it. Might make seating a little awkward, but keep things from bending.

[@stefanschlick582]

Hej all you Sparetime-Painter's ! Pretty good job that y'all have done as "Non-Professionals", especially spraypainting Airless is not for beginners ! Brady's quick moves tell me that he knows what i'm talking about ;-) For the next paintjob two tipps from a Pro. @Kazza: you've made the right experiences with the taping. Get it off as fast as you can. Means: not immediately after painting (too risky) but don't leave it on over the night. Tape cut's better through soft paint then when it's cured out completely. Regarding the leftover glue: that's a question of Quality (and price, of course) of the tape. For the next time: don't buy it at a Marine-Shop, stop by where they work with it every day - an automotive repair shop. They have the right stuff. @Brady: on your next job with a roller PUT SOME PAINT ON THE SURFACE ! Thickness is all what counts, squeezing the roller out up to the point where it is completly dry creates a much too thin and - more important - uneven paintlayer. Happy traveling into the new season, i'm pretty exited where it will take you (and us). Best regards from Germany - any chances that you ever will visit Hamburg ? The "Hafengeburtstag" (Birthday of the Port) would be the perfect date. It's been celebrated only once a year and it is THE place and time to be in Hamburg. Please think about it . . .

[@-htl-]

About the taping, not there with you. If you wait until dry you easily get slivers. When you carefully with a constant pull keeping the tape tight removing it immediately that gives the sharpest lines and smoothest lines. The paint rounds of the tape lines and of course no slivers and least change of pulling any paint of the under layer. It is not that hard. You also have different kind of tapes, like gold for very sharp lines or less sticky for vulnerable surfaces.

[@sailingpittsburgh]

Rather than blue tape, Frog tape is designed to eliminate bleed thru problems because it forms a barrier between the paint and the edge of the tape to get a sharp line on removal. www.frogtape.com/

The more you give the greater the perks.

Man I started watching Sailing La Vagabonde, and that got me hooked with sailing videos, but I fell in love with you guys as you appeared on my KZbin out of nowhere, Missed your videos big time. Love from AUS

Beautiful Sticker on the Bottom where sea life can identify the Delos

Thanks for showing how you guys take care of maintenance, there’s always things to learn. Your getting a little more Grey in your beard and hair Brian, it suits you. Thanks for all the work you all put into your videos, I don’t think you know how inspirational they can be for us land-locked people.

All that work makes me really appreciate my fresh-water, trailerable boat! I was thinking that 5 months out of the water was a really long time, then I remembered how much my boat sits on its trailer in the yard and...only 5 months? Another great SVD video for the record!

Matt here from Florida, I have always had a passion on becoming a deckhand position on a sail boat such the size of Delos. If you or know of anyone looking or have room, that would be one of the best things to happen to me. Btw I would be a green horn level.

You guys motivating me to do a haulout on my vehicle. Delos looks brand new!
