We’re BACK! Patrons only update
🕑 Added 2023-01-15 19:23:07 +0000 UTCHey fam! We’re back in Mexico and we’ve been busy bees trying to get Delos in ship shape for this huge season ahead of us. So we thought we’d show you around and give you a little taste of what we’ve been up to. Hope everyone has had an amazing weekend and start of 2023!
Lots of love from all of us :)

Sailing SV Delos
Hey Sadie, thanks so much! Good question :) All the sinks and showers on Delos are plumbed to a central grey water tank in the engine room. From there it's pumped overboard but through a fitting above the water line. So it does add a little complexity but there are no more holes below the water line, only the one for the salt water coming in. Our toilets and black water tanks are the same, the black water us pumped out in the tank, which is also above the water line. If we are in port we can get pumped out or if we are at sea they can gravity drain out above the water line. Hope this answers your question! Fair winds and thanks for the support- Brian

do you guys have a preferred vacuum seal bag brand for your clothing when you leave the boat a while? Bags that don't leak? or is that just something you gotta deal with?

Thanks for the fun update! Happy anniversary to you two! Good luck with the projects, Brian.
Sadie Johnson
Happy Anniversary!! You mention that was the only thru-hull. What about discharging of black & grey water? Now I’m really intrigued by the plumbing on Delos.

Good to be home, Sierra is growing like a little weed! Check out www.ABCmouse.com for homes schooling. Don't know if they have a Serrisdh bersion butthe program is exellent.
Marisa Conner
I love seeing how confident Sierra is on her boat! And amazing work in progress Brian! Happy anniversary to you both!
William Domb
Whoa. ONE through-hull. Dat's NICE!
Andrew Lee... lost, at sea!
Boat yard blues… it’s a bit like eating an elephant…. One bite at a time! Two weeks till I splash Destinations Unknown. In the parlance of Sierra, “whoo hoo”. Stay Salty!
Scurvy Dan
awesome. Glad to see you made it. looks like you have quite a list of things to change and or repair before shoving off this time.
Richard Lanier
Watching you work on the numerous projects warms my heart as I do the same on my boat. I am hoping this summer brings many to fruition.

Nice to see my first Patron video as I just joined recently. I’m pretty much doing the same upgrades on my truck which will bring me to next September where I hope being on the search for my sailboat. Nice to see the family together working on the updates. Anxious for the new season with Delos family!!! Oh and I’m looking for a name or "handle" as we say in the trucking industry. Maybe Ten4sailing!! What do you think?? 😉
Captain Jim
Amazing how many boat projects are on the calendar this time of year. Wishing you speed and good luck with all the installations. Given your level of expertise and curiosity they will be a distant memory in a few weeks! Best, Captain Jim, Shamrock Sailing
