Patrons Only- Lot's of Wheelin' N Weldin' this week :)
🕑 Added 2024-06-14 06:36:28 +0000 UTCHey Delos Tribe! It's Friday arvo here (that means afternoon in Australian BTW) and we usually quit work a bit early so people can get home and spend some time with their families. Before we left for the weekend I did a little recap showing all we accomplished this week, which is pretty astounding. She's really starting to take shape! Thanks for all the comments and questions on last weeks timelapse. I think this weeks is going to be really cool given all the plates that went on, so when I put it together over the weekend I'll do my best to answer them for you in a little play by play :) Cheers and the weekly video should be out tomorrow! XXOO- Brian, Karin, and Sierra

Yeah, if anything this is the more “straight forward “ part of the project…. Time will tell, no ETA yet for completion.
Sailing SV Delos
He he it’s tough…. Sort of like Swedish summer 🤣
Sailing SV Delos

It’s low 50’s at night and mid 70’s but day here. Perfect for welding!

Paint the piece of plywood and the graphics will really pop!
John Hardie
I will be there for the BBQ & flip over, looking forward to meeting you after all these years! No 2 is looking amazing. Bit like building a house, the shell happens quickly it’s the fit out that can slow it down. Stradbroke look like a really tight mob & I am sure all their contractors will be good to👍 Have a well earned weekend Cheers John
Brendan Gregory
thats what I was thinking also Brian 😁😁

Woohoo go Nugget, both our girls got into Gymnastics, until they grew into six foot tall women anyway. Best thing for core strength, agility etc etc.
Sailing SV Delos
They are a local Aussie company called Trademutt !
Sailing SV Delos
She absolutely loves it and even started gymnastics last week 🥰

Great idea to do the recap and use our comments for the Time Lapse. You do a terrific job on all of the videos. Seeing the hard work of the crew, their professionalism and skill - you certainly made the right decision to build 2.0 down under. I agree with everyone - the cur outs on the plywood look great. Need to mount and/or frame them. Hopefully it will be installed on the finished boat.
Tim Heslip
Love the art on the plywood.
SV Sirene Spirit
Man that boat is taking shape fast, you must be doing some big days as well as keeping the channel going. At least we have some cool weather for you right now. How is Sierra going with kindy, she loving all the extra kids to play with?
David Cooper
Yeah, this is a monster build. The flip will be epic! Where can I get a shirt like those? Totally brilliant!
Gravytrain
Coming along nicely, wish I was there instead of the triple digit heat in Arizona!
David Levine
Looks great, so exciting to see Delos 2.0 taking shape!
Jeanne H. Mathieu
Good work crew 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻like the shirts and the purpose a lot. Can we pitch in for the cause and purchase some? Is there a plan on that subject? Good recap of the week 🌏
Kent Wadenpfuhl
Looking good!! And Happy Father’s Day!!!🙏🏻🙂
Mike TopCat
Good idea on the Delos Buddha guy cut out. I’ll make a bid starting at 100 bucks.
Scott C. Wise
Looks tremendous! But still a lot to go. We will enjoy the progress reports. : - )
Andrea and Gisela
You should auction away that sweet Delos cutout 🤩
Juan David
Nice touch with the 2.0 sign 🪧
Andrew Hlavacek
Wow! Awesome progress. Beers are definitely deserved.
Colleen Balch
Just waking up and you’re heading home for beer-o’clock! So psyched you’ve made such good progress. Go enjoy fam time and looking forward to seeing a bit more of OZ life sometime soon! PS THANKS for the Aussie slang video, info and hilarity were spot on. Gonna go rewatch a couple times. Did they say “barbie”? Hope there’s one in your and Kazza’s and Nugs’s afternoon. Cheers!
Wayne McClennan
Such high quality work. 🇦🇺✅🔥Delos 2.0 is looking fantastic. Hope you are enjoying our horrendous Brisbane winter weather? 😃
M. Scott Owitz
Can’t believe how fast the aluminum is coming together. Would this be the “easy”part of the process and have you an estimated sail away date? I assume at least a couple of years. Scott
Sailing SV Delos
yep 👍
Keith Bailey
Are the shirts in lieu of high visibility jackets? Awesome 😎
Thomas Lengel
That is way cool! Many panels rock and rolled yea!
Sailing SV Delos
Yep, all welding! I personally like riveting too. Very satisfying with that snap at the end.
Chip Andrews
Wow, it is coming along! I am really enjoying seeing how fast Delos 2.0 is coming together!!
Stephen
Will the construction be all welded? Any riveting? I enjoyed bucking rivets with my S.O. Cheers!
Trudy and Chris
That looks amazing...!!
