THE BOAT IS OURS! MUAHAHA! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 240

[@rosserpace3602]

Let the adventure begin..... "I find the great thing in this world is not so much where we stand, as in what direction we are moving - we must sail sometimes with the wind and sometimes against it - but we must sail, and not drift, nor lie at anchor." - Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.

Brady and Blue, I've been watching Delos episodes for 7 years. I watched a 30 something techie (Brian) turn into an old salt. His engineering has probably saved Delos more than once. I watched several kids (including you) grow up...mature is a better word. ...I'm a 60 year old sailor. I've been around the world twice. Watching y'alls adventures keeps this old salt young. Fair winds and smooth sailing on your new adventures. Welcome to the new greenhorns..(Sean not so much..I reckon he'll be invaluable on this trip.) And....Anchor's Aweigh!

[@svdelos]

Thanks for being there for the ride Chris! Much Love, Brady

[@chrisoleary9876]

@@svdelos My first ever reply from Delos crewmembers! Thank you Brady!

[@dawnhornsby7215]

Awesome😍

[@bigocea]

Here, here!

[@captainmarkgray8856]

Ditto for me except I'm an old salt of 69 years :-) I love their med kit video. The best thing about the boating community is that they share their experiences thus education based upon real life experiences and, learning is orgasmatic, we all love it (especially sailors vs stinkpots because sailors cruise long distances and with less pollution "via God's FREE wind").

[@zapsurf1343]

Delos is a crazy thing to me. I found you guys one of my many sleepless nights wandering KZbin awake worrying about work and family and bills etc. I never found anything that relaxed me and would get me relaxed enough to fall back asleep. I never had any interest in sailing. I love the ocean but from the beach haha! You all are some incredible souls. What got me hooked was Brian fixing everything. True tradesman. Im an industrial electrician for 22 years now and really appreciate another persons talents. You all really are awesome!

[@taistingtheair1368]

I also was amazed at how the crew worked together though the years and how diverse Brian is with repairs and his management skills.

[@erikm9768]

Same, as an engineer learning sailing and fixing sailing stuff from Brian is what I love the most about these videos.

[@tillysanders2593]

How is possible that although I've been following Delos for years - you just keep reinventing yourself .. and once again despite the unimaginable loss /absence of Brian & Kazza -- I'm just as intrigued and excited as ever to watch your next adventure ! Special hello to your new crew , from a fellow Limey in Toronto. And wonderful Papa Smurf serenading Brady inking him with the Delos logo at the end .. was magical. Fair winds guys ..

[@stevenmaxwell8737]

I'm so glad I found this episode. This episode and last really cleared up some questions. It's nice to know that Brian and Brady or brothers. This channel really brings peace to my mind. My wife and I are big Travelers but have never sailed. I've skimmed through all the years but now I'm ready to go back from the beginning and watch each episode. Thanks for the journey and be blessed

[@colinboniface194]

The transition shot of the process from Brian to Brady, was needing to get to the plumbers supplier, out came the skateboard. That skateboard shot was perfection. That was the transitional moment when Brady became captain. It's all about being yourself. Attitude is everything... Great crew. Amazing new sail, and a priceless new episode in the continuing adventures of sailing Delos... So very well done all of you...

[@rahdaswami2452]

Brady, you have my vote for being able to stand in your brothers shoes and take on a pretty big responsibility getting not the boat across an ocean or two, but the people in it. Good job, you've got our support.

[@seafodder6129]

I have to admit that I was concerned that Delos just wouldn't be Delos without Brian and Kazza but this episode has put those fears to rest. Y'all still got it. Great to meet the new crew, they all seem to be terrific people. I am _so_ looking forward to this next chapter in the Delos story. Thanks so much for sharing!

[@davidc6510]

Brady & Blue an awesome job on the video to start the season! Great story line and videography. That head sail is amazing! Looking forward to seeing all the adventures unfold as well as the creativity of Ruben! Beam Winds!

[@pkane5472]

Love the camera shots in the bottom of the bucket and the bottom of the shopping bag! Clever!

[@bevanpope7924]

You beat me to that comment! Ditto!

[@JesusHernandez-xp2bh]

Hey guys, Im still here fighting my damn cancer always watching your videos I may be a little behind, now I can see you got two new crew members in Delos and its hard to explain but makes me so exited, great Capt Braddy and your girl. Im sure you will have a hell of a time with the new guys in the boat, sorry Ive never been a patreon cause on always short on money but I got a beautiful shirt and hut from delos I bought sometine ago, that’s my way to help you guys and your beautiful adventures, and also thanks for showing us the beautiful world, have a wife and three kids one of them my oldest says he is also watching your videos, God bless you all in your passage to Europe

[@svdelos]

Hey buddy! Sending you a huge hug and good vibes today. Thanks so much for being apart of the journey by watching and sharing with your family :D

[@dawnhornsby7215]

So good 💜

[@rebelmusikworldwide9749]

great delos family vibes mon, respect.

[@joshtvg]

I can see and feel the nervousness in Brady as he takes control of the helm for the first time! I foresee a new level of confidence in his own skills and abilities on the horizon. I think we may have just witnessed the start of a salty sea dog discovering his true abilities. It takes a lot of love and trust to give your home to someone else to look after...Brian couldn't have picked a better man (and his first mate) for the job!

[@jamesbockenstette4332]

Alex/Blue has a great narrative voice. Thanks for posting.

[@svdelos]

I know right??

[@rummbolt]

For me, this is one of the most emotional Delos episodes until now. Opening this new chapter, with a great new crew, to a new continent, but for the first time, without the captain ... Looking forward to it, but also can not wait to see Kazza, Brian and Sierra back on board :) That great new foresail is like a symbol for this upcoming season: Combines new and old features and lets Delos shine in a different way again. Maybe some day, we will meet out there on the oceans. Keep on sailing guys, stay safe! Greetings from Germany :)

[@luvglass]

Great episode - new captain & new crew. Looks like Delos is in good hands.

[@christopherjuntti5511]

Brady and Blue, I am so excited for y’all! Brady, you have learned from the master and now you get to be the guy to solve problems as they come up. I think you are going to do great and Blue is the perfect compliment and partner. The new crew looks awesome and think having another person with sailing experience is a very good idea. Fair winds and calm seas to the NEW DELOS CREW!!

[@mikemullay5622]

To Brady and Blue, enjoy your new adventures in SV Delos with your new crew. I will of course be watching. Fair winds and following seas to you all!!

[@kaiwoolrich4732]

This isn’t just a KZbin channel to show the world and make money from. Your genuinely having a good time and making memories and I love it.

[@petermerritt754]

Emotional intro, and then the old Delos vibe back as the new crew are intro’ed, looking forward to the crossing.

[@bevanpope7924]

Old Delos feel back! Well said!

[@Balkanjeros1]

[@hoonbuilt5407]

[@cellllman]

So cool to see the refit of Delos! It gives us a real insight into the workings and just how much it takes to sail the ocean blue! Great video editing and looking so forward to the up coming episodes. Great boat, great crew and the wide open ocean! Have fun and be safe!

[@qaannat]

oh my goodness y'all... is this the most epic Delos episode ever? Karin stepping off the boat to go become a Mom was simply epic. Captain Brian will have a daughter. Very touching. Brady and Blue moving to the master suite, and the arrival of new crew and personalities. Amazing. Thanks.

[@qaannat]

Blue, you and Brady are absolutely up to the challenges. As are Brian and Karin. Best to you all. Keep cruising.

[@tomphillips7858]

I have mixed feeling about this. Delos has been a part of the routine for so long, another reason to love Friday’s... was personally getting slightly melancholy regarding the ending of chapters (which are echoing chapters IRL). As we all turn the pages of our lives, this has become a kind of therapy. Witnessing the positive energy and enthusiasm, while managing the change, is helping the evolution. Both happy, and slightly sad for Delos. But looking forward to seeing what this revolution brings and where things go from here, both on the channel as a surrogate family, and IRL. 😌

[@matti1337]

I love how the filming and all is already different. Still Delos, but different. Excited for everything that's about to come and I wish Kazza and Breeyawn all the best!

[@brucecooper8559]

So stoked to watch a crew coming together in front of our eyes, looking forward to watching you 5 gelling together creating a distinct entity.🙌🏻⛵️🏝

SO MUCH feel good vibe, SO HAPPY for your new crew! Thank you! 😀👌⛵

[@judylutz1702]

Love the new crew members! I hope your sail has been flawless so far. I’m confident the new Captain will guide you on safe passage! ❤️

[@scarletbegonias2359]

She's stunning, she'll get you where ever you wanna go. It's nice to see how well you embrace when first meeting eachother knowing that the future will only bring you closer to one another. Great Job, Captain, team work makes the dream work.

[@adipete9039]

Man, when you squeezed that sponge into the bucket I was actually blinking my eyes, awesome detail, awesome crew and I'm pretty much sure awesome new adventures waiting for you! 10 more years?Why not? I'll be happy to watch you that's for sure so Brady and Blue, you have my best wishes!

It is awesome to see Cap'n Brady with Blue leading his crew. It is new beginning and a lot of responsibilities ahead and 16:35 Cap'n Brady is ready!!! *"business in the front & party in the back"~Cap'n Brian* i want to cry :)

[@robcruse100]

Awesome video guys. Delos is in the best possible hands, and new crew are going to make for some good times.

[@dustinvan]

I've been watching this boat and it's inhabitants for about 8 years now, starting from episode 1. This is one of those episodes that made me cry with happy tears. So much change. But it's like a train moving from one track to another, still moving forward. Wishing B and K all the love with their little one, but so, so excited to see how this season unfolds. Fair winds, Delos. Onward!

[@oklibrarian]

Looking forward to this crew! For some reason the vibe reminds me of the "Girl Crew" that came over from South Africa. As for the scholarship winners, my first and second choices were your first and second choices! Hope Kathryn can get her documents sorted out for a future adventure. :-)

[@daedster1]

Funny that, I got the same vibe

This channel has become very special to me, thank you guys for this and I hope you never stop sailing so I can continue to be positively affected by all of you.

[@ptolemeoskotzambasis2199]

Big props to Brady and Blue for this episode!! I absolutely love the way these videos are typically done, but this one has a certain vibe to it that's unique. I haven't seen too many videos welcoming new crew on-board (I'm relatively new to the Delos Tribe) but having the new crew film themselves a bit and narrating was awesome! Much love from AZ!!!

[@rgildersleeve5479]

I didn't notice any slack in any areas which one might expect when 2 of the seasoned/experienced crew departed. Great video as usual along with performing the repairs and maintenance. Well done Brady and Blue.

[@jenfinlay4983]

This video is up there with some of the top ones. This video is full of energy and feeling thank you. It will be strange not seeing Brian and Karin ever week but I can not wait to go along with you.

What a fantastic crew you have!!! This is going to be an amazing season!!!

[@MrPaddy1000111]

I can't wait for this! It will be like old-school delos, provisioning runs and fixing issues! :D

[@scyz2807]

When I saw the title of this episode it reminded me of Boris Badenov. Of course, his female counterpart was Natasha Fatale. So, considering the video thumbnail, we have Brady and Blue as Boris and Natasha. I wouldn't have had the idea if it weren't for the nefarious "laugh" there at the end. : - ) Besides that, it's amazing to see all the prep work to get ready to sail across the Atlantic. Not surprising, mind you, just amazing. And I have to mention that the new head sail looks BEAUTIFUL! While typing this up I got a call that my 87 year old uncle just passed away. The reason that fits here is that just this last Tuesday (10/15) I spoke with him on the phone for close to 45 minutes. A good part of that conversation included news about my trip down to the US Sailboat Show and how I got to meet so many interesting people - including Brian and Brady AND their dad, Papa D. Over the last few years I've also called him up while sailing my 20' (pocket) yacht. He'd lost his eye sight a few years back so enjoyed my live descriptions of my sailing adventures. And I just realized that that is very much like how I (and so many others here) enjoy watching these wonderful SV Delos episodes. It's good to spread the (sailing) love around! S C Wise

[@PamelaHabing]

I am SO excited for you all! What an awesome crew you have assembled, each person so unique yet it feels like you've been a crew for a long time. The new sail is beautiful and the color is so befitting the energy of this crew. I didn't know how I'd feel without Brian and Karin onboard, and I will still miss them, but Brady & Blue you've done an excellent job of moving forward. Adventure awaits!

[@davescott1491]

Very cool episode Mr Brady and Miss Blue. Looks like an interesting and fully engaged crew! Looking forward to the adventures.

[@richardshippful]

[@rothlis18]

Bravo, Brady and Blue you did a great job with your new crew.

[@anthonymiller4550]

Tony & Susan here, Brady it appears to us that Brian has taught you well. The new crew looks willing at this point. 3 days out is the real test , good luck my brother.

What a great video. Covered so much, I'm going to freshen my coffee and watch again. Thank you all.

[@tylersmith9799]

Coolest show ever. I give myself 30 minutes on Friday mornings to watch new episodes. My 12 yr old daughter often watches with me before I take her to school. She remarked once “man that’s the coolest way to live!”. I responded “Do it! There’s absolutely nothing stopping you!”. I don’t know if you realize the impact you’re having on a much younger crowd than you may have expected. She’s learned a ton about the environment, different cultures, tolerance, the joy of freedom and having the courage to follow your dreams. Way to go guys and keep it up!

[@svdelos]

That's awesome Tyler, thanks for the comment. We love knowing that kids watch too :) Tell her hello from us!!!

[@mattlewandowski73]

as a last note... the way your folks support of your sailing life is amazing... I love it... enjoy every minute of it.

[@keithwiggins4987]

I'm a few years behind in the Delos videos but having just watched episode 95, Saying Goodbye, I had to fast forward in time to watch Brady's first video as captain. It's amazing how attached we can become to this wonderful group of people. While watching 95, my wife who is not into sailing nor these videos, was watching with me and towards the end she looked over at me and said "Are you crying?". I'll be returning to continue my viewing from 95 but I am stoked to also mix in the new adventures of Brady and Co. :)

[@niceguy2171]

It's always fun to see the early pictures of Brian and you, such unaware adventurers who were going to find their Love of the and on the sea, and how wild to see the interesting mix that is crewing Delos now. Must admit it is hard to see the boat w/out Brian and Karin..Think Brian and Delos are symbiotic twins at this point, but if anybody had to sail her w/out Brian onboard it had to be you Brady, and Blue. Lot's of work, but man that new sail is something else! Now to get moving, and glad you got new radar and such, and got some time to work on her, and may you have the sweetest of journey's, the easiest of trips, and may the new crew fall in love with the sea as well.

[@Jsmithyy]

I got tears running down my salty face. Thank you so much.

[@mboyer68]

Oh my goodness...hoisting that crunchy crispy crackling beautiful new Genoa sail...it sounded almost as good as it looked! So much better than the old soft, clapped out, quiet sail. But..that dirty old sail brought you wonderful passages and great times. Making bags from the old sail was a wonderful idea, I mean..who wouldn't want a piece of Delos's sail? I do! It's a piece of history. Absolutely love your content, would love to drop everything and live aboard Delos while she gently glides, and violently smashes across an ocean. Pick me pick me!!

Wow great vid. Maybe because I am a Brit but instantly took to Ruben what a nice guy ! I wonder if Brian was more nervous watching Brady opening up the wiring looms or waiting in the maternity room? Pop's has a great Tatt now expect him to be in short sleeves for months now. I know this is out of time but good luck.

[@whitefam2000]

over the last couple of years, I have to say this is the episode I have been waiting for. Taking nothing away from Brian or Kazza, but this episode has put new energy into Delos that is very refreshing. Blue, the combination of your friend and Sean over the next bit as well as the Brit I think will be very positive. I've been waiting to see if Brady can skipper on his own seriously, now we find out. Love you guys.

[@johncooke6241]

It’s hard to think of Delos without Brian and Kazaa but Brady and Blue, you have killed it with the selection of a new crew and this was an excellent video. Feeling nothing but love and excitement for the new season. Cheers to all of you and be safe.

Exciting times. I hope there will be some short clips of the soon to be parents along the way.

Captain Brady, Kudos for rocking the USS Annapolis (SSN-760) cap! I was on board the USS Snook (SSN592) at one time last century. Always nice to see someone acknowledge the Silent Service.

[@murrayisabeth1897]

Onwards and upwards for SV Delos, she's in capable hands with you senior Brady and Blue. Looking forward to watching your adventures and welcome to your new crew Sean, Giha and Ruben. Great mix of people and I'm really excited for the experience the Delos scholarship has given young Ruben..what a trip! I personally am not a sailor but differently a Delos fan, so thank you all for sharing. Great travels and strong winds and calm sea's.
