Happy Thanksgiving. New here. Love you guys been watching 3 years now. Finally got caught up. My family farms and I pull up ur videos while in cruising along in a tractor. lol

Oh yeah that's a good one! I can remember an encounter with an Oceanic White Tip in Chagos that left me and Brady back to back in the outer reef for a while until it left us alone. Super agressive!
Sailing SV Delos
Arrrrr! Well matey it be slim pickings out here... We last been to port a month past, so the provisions are low. We got plenty o grog though, and can chase down a few crabs on the island so it's not too dire! But actually it looks like we might have weather to make the Marquesas so we might be at sea. And if so we'll just have a feast when we arrive instead :)
Robby Lafont
Not sure if this should be in a bonus video or not, but I have often wondered: what has been your closest call with an animal while sailing the world? Any wild shark encounters?
Janine Van Leeuwen
Love love love you guys!!! Sierra is inspiring even my 13 year olds ๐ More on her day to day boat life would be great, also canโt pass on the diving vids.
Sailing SV Delos
Thanks so much William, happy thanksgiving to you too!
Sailing SV Delos

Sailing SV Delos

Sailing SV Delos

Happy Thanksgiving
Mr. Bigg
Hey Guys... Diving vids are almost as good as Sierra videos. She is so cute and such a hoot. Easy to see where she gets her shinning personality! I enjoyed watching her help you with maintenance! How about making another one...of course you will need a bigger boat! LOL. Best to you guys, MR BIGG

I wonder has anyone asked you what is the average sailing speed of Delos? Obviously that doesn't include when you are on anchor, on a mooring ball, or in a marina. I'm guessing 6 - 8 knots. Maybe less?
Scurvy Dan
Oh yeah... happy week end delos crew. Curious to know how your planning to celebrate thanks giving. I am imagining a pirate feast on the beach with lots of rum and meat cooked over open flames. but you may have a completely different idea in mind. a tropical sailors thanksgiving. delos style
Brian&Christina
Thanks. Really like the occasional boat project videos. I would have never owned the boat I have now without them. They made believe I could do it to. P,S the atomic 4 runs again!
Michael Williams
Awesome - makes a great side story!
Evan Wiley
Slow tv
Jeff Fischer
Might be time for another live Q & A. Pamplemousse. ๐
Myra Slepoy
It seems when you follow wherever the โwind blowsโ you, a wonderful video is the result. I trust your judgement when it comes to your content. I am always intrigued and thrilled. Cheers to you all and have a wonderful weekend.
Bonne Mike
How about an episode where Jordan magically appears again as the crew ..... and stays a long time?
Sailing SV Delos
Actually quite a bit has been going on! We got the new roof on, the heater floor has been poured, new windows are in, and it's coming together! And by "we" I mean MorMor cracking the whip on the contractors :). We hope to be finished by next summer. Fingers crossed!
Sailing SV Delos
Awesome thanks for the input Oshra!
Sailing SV Delos
Thanks Dusty, we've got lots of great diving footage coming up for ya!

Sailing SV Delos
Nice! Yeah we're about due for a slow tv we haven't done one since the Pacific Crossing
Sailing SV Delos
Thanks so much for the input Shelly! We actually touch on this a little bit in this next episode where we talk about it some of the social dynamics in the cruising lifestyle, but yes this would be a really interesting and useful topic to cover, especially for hopeful cruisers so they can be ready for some of the challenges that inevitably come. Sending lots of love back at ya!
Sailing SV Delos
That's a great idea, I think a lot of people are curious about the forward facing sonar!
Sailing SV Delos
Sweet! Yeah I think it could be cool to just set up a gopro during one of our beach days and let it just roll!
Sailing SV Delos
Copy that! We've got some AWESOME diving coming up in the next episode :)
Sailing SV Delos
Ohhh that's so cool you made it out here this year, and that you got to see some sharkies! What a magical place FP is!
Sailing SV Delos
Let us know what you come up with Scott!
Sailing SV Delos
Thanks so much Gary!
oshra duek
maybe a Siera vid? some collection of her royal awesomenes
Michael Williams
Any more plans on the renovation of that outbuilding at Mor Mor's?!
Dusty Ritz
I TOO Love the scuba dives
Thomas Hoglund
Rock on an cheers from Sweden.
Jeff Allen
I like to put the slow show on the big screen in the background when we have company. Most people are drawn to it and think it's so cool.
Shelly Ackerman
Curious about your relationship challenges and dynamics giving that you are living in such close quarters as well as working together - how do you work with the need for alone time, but more importantly , when you have an argument or bad day and there is no real โawayโ from each other? You guys have such a loving relationship but I bet the cruising life would be the end of some relationships. Thanks for asking for ideas! Love to you three!

I always enjoy the slow TV videos. Also, anything tech related. Maybe not in need of a whole episode, but I'm curious to hear how the forward-looking sonar has been working out. Is it useful picking your way into anchorages in French Polynesia?
David Haney
Chillin' on the beach โฑ
John Peters
More SCUBA Diving ALWAYS!
Gary Brazina
I loved your videos of French Polynesia. Was there for the first time this summer and it is heaven. Loved the shark and ray dive while there. I must admit I am living vicariously thru your adventures and am a little envious. Met an aquantance of yours who had single handed from Panama to Marquesas. Be well, calm seas, tight lines
Scott C. Wise
I'll have to think about the Bonus Video ideas. Hmmmmmm
Gary Brazina
Happy Friday to you guys:
