Patron's Only BONUS: We're BACK to the build (Walkthrough + Progress!)

Heyoooo amazing Delos Tribe! We're finally getting properly settled in after all the chaos of returning to Australia, moving in to our new place, getting back in the building groove and of course keeping the normal episodes coming! But we are beyond stoked to share this first look at Delos 2.0 with you! After 10 weeks away in Tahoe visiting Brady & Blue, some time with family in Sweden, and of course all the boat show antics in Annapolis, we finally got back to the workshop and laid our eyes on Delos 2.0 again! And our reactions in the video pretty much say it all, we were BEYOND blown away at the progress that was made. Dan and the guys didn't miss a beat while we were gone and the amount of hard work they put in in such a short amount of time is truly incredible. When we left there were no decks and no roof, the top part of the boat was still just a skeleton, and now as you'll see they put on all the decks, the entire roof, the whole aft cockpit, the rain catchment system, support posts for the roof, chainplates all welded in, and sooooo much more.  We are super stoked to be back at it, and we've got some pretty cool stuff coming up to share with you. We hope everyone is having a fantastic week, and we'll see ya on Friday with our episode of our trip Tahoe and Sweden!

Sending love and gratitude from Oz!

Brian, Kazza, & Sierra

Have you considered 'chef' stools at the stern? think about when you have a large group on board in an anchorage. You're grilling and drinking a beer. You need a place to sit and set your drink down without returning to the main part of the aft deck. Cheers! amazing

SV Trippin'

Sweet as, Love your work n you pashion.

Hey Steve- It ranges from 1.91 meters (6'3") in the hulls to 1.97 meters (6'6") in the saloon.

Sailing SV Delos

Yes, we sure did! Coming up soon :)

Sailing SV Delos

Hey Clive, we'll target around 50KWH of batteries. It's a substantial amount of weight, over 400KG. We'll have about 10KW of inverter capacity. So yes the weight balance needs to be calculated carefully otherwise you risk a squatting boat :). We'll have one diesel engine for range, and two 25KW electric motors. It's quite a new system but we look forward to seeing how she goes!

Sailing SV Delos

We actually left our time lapse camera running and checked it remotely. he he he :)

Sailing SV Delos

Hey Donald, yes it should be fairly easy. We are building a step on the port side of the cockpit, and on the starboard side there is a seat that can be used as a step. From the deck it's pretty easy to get up top.

Sailing SV Delos

I hadn't but thanks for sharing!

Sailing SV Delos

Love it!!!

Rusty Comer

Wow! This is so cool! I didn’t think I would enjoy this build as much as I enjoyed you sailing but it’s been fun and I’m super impressed how fast it’s going!

Janet & John Nobis

Wow!! She's ginormous!!

CATHERINE HACKETT

You can play football on top of that roof….

Robby Lafont

Amazing amount of space! You are going to feel claustrophobic when you get back on Delos!

Dwight Smith

Do you know this amazing youtuber? she is ausi, and maybe it will be interesting for you guys to meet her https://youtu.be/kFhfX2z-vXQ?si=H5JgxTrOC-OguSgD

oshra duek

Wow. Just wow. I can’t wait to move in… I mean watch you move in. She is coming along so nicely.

Dan Moss

Sailing SV Delos

Papa D in the house 🙌

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Scott!!!!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Cy, we've been thinking about it for so many years, we are so happy so far with how it's all coming to life!

Sailing SV Delos

That's what she said!

Sailing SV Delos

The camera doesn't do it justice either, shes truly a beast!

Sailing SV Delos

Shame you couldn't make it Daniel, but glad you enjoyed the walkthrough! We've been super busy and have lots more to show you guys over the weekend!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Even, she's looking pretttttty fine if we do say so ourselves!

Sailing SV Delos

🤩🤩🤩🤩

Sailing SV Delos

100 percent NOT a baby 😂 and thanks so much Alan, glad you're loving the build as much as we are, soooo crazy to see it all unfolding

Sailing SV Delos

Hahaha totally 😂😂😂

Sailing SV Delos

Hahahaha I think if we get rid of woohoo from the end of the videos there would be Delos Tribe mutiny 😂😂😂 And yeppppp she really is HUGE!

Sailing SV Delos

Pretty unbelievable, we are beyond stoked!

Sailing SV Delos

So crazy right!?!

Sailing SV Delos

Now that it's underway we really can't picture it any other way than here with Dan and the guys!

Sailing SV Delos

Hahaha for sure its massive!

Sailing SV Delos

Totally! We're smitten!

Sailing SV Delos

Thats a great idea :)

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Scott! And yep we're still not to that phase yet, but we're definitely making some great progress in planning out all the interior fittings

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Jeanne!

Sailing SV Delos

Haha not sure about the square dancing but the smoke machine will definitely be making an appearance for some dance parties 😂

Sailing SV Delos

They've really done such an incredible job haven't they?!? We might be a bit biased but we think she's such a gorgeous, one of a kind boat!

Sailing SV Delos

It's a pretty indescribable feeling to see Delos 2.0 coming together like this 🥳 Will be cool once we start outfitting the interior and get into a bit of woodworking too

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Katie, yep we mayyy have put a bit of thought into it over the years 😂 We can't wait to have her out on the water, although we are sooo enjoying the build process too!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Ana! It's starting to feel sooo real now 🤯

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much Tim, we're totally blown away!

Sailing SV Delos

Great progress! Very cool to see it coming along.

Tim Heslip

wow what an amazing update. my gosh so much progress, cant finally see what the boat is gonna look like. i mean being a visual person my self, seeing the boat like this, finally the design, pland and blue print of delos2.0 made sense to me in my head.... i honestly cant wait to see you guys set sail.

Ana Pacha

What an incredible gift of space to be together. But also plenty of space for personal contemplation. It’s almost like you all knew exactly what you wanted and had taken years of careful consideration! 😉 Well done! I cannot wait to see her all fitted out and floating.

Katie Litchfield

I'm a wood guy, through and through. I gotta say, I can't remember ever feeling such a sense of emotion from metal work as what you are showing. Nice, very nice.

Clark Robins

The lines are just beautiful along with the metalwork. So clean!

JK

Will there be easy access from the forward cockpit to the roof to access the boom?

Donald & Ruvey Lovegrove

Awesome progress!! Did they do any time lapse while you were gone?

Tony Gariepy

Outstanding design! The Salon is big enough for square dancing .... at least a ho-Down (Sierra's bike rides). You may have so much space in lockers ....... that you will keep everything! Sometimes a mighty Captain's dreams come true. Keep'em flyin

Bonne Mike

Wooohooooo…impressive progress 🥳🥳🥳

Jeanne H. Mathieu

Fabulous looking boat guys. You’re talking batteries and inverters. How much electrics will you have on the boat? Diesel motors or electric? A generator too? I was watching another channel and he has discovered that that the batteries and stuff on his all electric boat caused it to sit too far back in the water and has had to make changes in the placement of the real heavy equipment. 👌🏼

Clive Lake

It's sooooo good hope you managed some timelaps of this topside progression..

Paul Hazelgrove

So much done since you left! WoW Is it still too early for inside cabinets to be put in? I would guess so. Thanks for the preview!

Scott C. Wise

Maybe you can use a foot control for the shower.

Coree

Dreamboat 😎

Mattias Persson

Wow! That roof will hold the entire Delos Tribe 😎

Andrea and Gisela

I'm sooo glad you chose to have help and build in Australia, the progress is amazing and I can almost imagine this on the water now.

Chris Brown

Wow! She's coming together so quickly!

Jeff Ridenhour

wow so much in 3 months . Deeeelightful 🙌🏼💦⛵️2.0

Israel Dayan

Sierra's sign-off "Owwwt!" with a wave of her hand could be the new "Woo-hoo!". As she said.. she's "not the baby." With the roof in place, Delos 2.0 is looking massive. You could catch "Jaws"... you *are* the bigger boat! ⛵👀😎

William Flower

Incredible progress while you were gone. Maybe you should leave more often? Ha!

Peter Kane

Wow, that blew me away. Absolutely incredible. Also loved Sierra’s gentle reminder to you that she isn’t a baby lol

Alan Gore

Wow!

David Seabrook

Looking sooo good.

Even Haug

that is awesome guys I couldn't get up there on the meetup being in the wheelchair so very happy you posted an update thank you

Daniel in aus

That roof is huge! Looks like you merged a houseboat with a catamaran.

Mike Medina

Ginormous! 😀

Eray Ekici

Amazing, love the innovations you dreamed up to really make it your own and even better than designed. Hat's off to you Brian.

Cy Pilkington

Incredible.

Scott Crawford

Hey FIRST TO SAY WOW!!! Everything you wanted no wasted space… SO MUCH ROOM … and the WINDOW EXPOSURE,, SUPER

Michael Trautman

Omg ! It looks Huge !! I can’t wait to see you guys out sailing in it !

Kay Tennant

Very nice, can't wait to see it finished!

FreeWilly

It’s like a combination of Water World and Dune with all the water conservation.😂

Lee Pottle

kazza’s excitement is contagious. Not for Sierra she already has a party going on in her beautiful head.😂 Can’t wait to see it.

Lee Pottle

Awesome. Awesome. What's the headroom under the ceilings?

Steve K

Could say Dalos 2 is Very “ ergonomic “ ! Totally Awesome Brian, Kazza and Sierra. Very cool.🤧😂

Lee Pottle

That roof/solar/water/davits is *chef's kiss*. Just think, that's really only the space behind the mast. You still have all the space in the hulls and trampolines!! Wow, very nicely done.

William Houck

Delos 2.0 is coming along!! "She's a beaut!!" So happy for all of you, amazing progress!! ⛵🤩
