When Your Tattoo Artist Says OOPS πŸ˜³β€¦.14 Swallows Later! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 383

Ahoy friends!

We're back this week with gem of an episode that will leave you with a smile on your face and lots of giggles.  After arriving to Mexico after our 5 day passage, we were super stoked to dive right into everything this coast has to offer...but mother nature had other plans for us.  What we hoped to have been a little 3 day stop over turned into 3 weeks as the strongest hurricane to ever hit the pacific coast of Mexico in the month of may rolled in to the north of us, and then blasted headwinds in the exact direction we wanted to go for the foreseeable forecast.  But in true Delos fashion, we decided to drink a few beers and roll with it, leading to an airbnb pool party, some tattoos, lots and lots of beer, a trip to Guatemala, and of course boat projects galore.  

One thing we didn't really film and capture that well is that the marina in Chiapas really was in the middle of nowhere, full of bugs (the girls were doing yoga and workouts in the bathroom because it was too many bugs to do it outside πŸ˜‚), terrible marina wifi that made it extremely difficult to take advantage of all the downtime to get some work done (and our satellite didn't work in that area), stinking hot or pouring down rain...so it was a bit of a drag for sure and we were feeling SO stuck and stir crazy while we were there.  But such is cruiser life, and times like these are the price you pay for all the incredible highs and amazing experiences that the lifestyle can bring. 

Here is the direct link on YouTube: https://youtu.be/a0X0pwH8ZWM

Many of you had mentioned that you're interested in some more educational bonus content on here, so we're going to release the full weather planning chat here on Patreon on Tuesday so you can really get an idea of what we're looking at and how we make decisions.  Also, after our brief dive into spare parts I keep onboard in this episode, we had the idea to create a video or maybe a document to help guide you in stocking your boat with all the spares you might need...but we want to do this really well and put some time and consideration into putting it together, so stay tuned for that in the near-ish future! 

As usual, we hope everyone has a happy Friday, and thanks so much for all the love and support you give us πŸ’•

The fame shame bit is a winner! I hope we see a lot more of it

Justin Thompson

Going to add yet another voice to the crowd saying how much I enjoyed the wall of fame/shame segment, very fun!

Dan

Early in the episode, I asked my husband (also Brian) β€œWhere on your Delos Wish List is seeing Brian’s tools and spares?” He said β€œWay under seeing what’s on the Wall of Fame/Shame.” Please keep!

Erin Ruff

Hahaha exactly! Yeah we've been talking about retiring some of the faded ones and digitizing them and putting them in a scrapbook or something, plus then we can make more room for new ones!

Sailing SV Delos

Awesome Paul, glad you enjoyed! We had so much fun filming it we will def make this a reoccurring segment!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks David, we love it too we're def gonna keep doing more!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed this one! We had quite a few giggles putting this one together!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks so much for the kind words Shelly! It's definitely an acquired skill over many years of problem solving/making mistakes/figuring it all out. My technical background was certainly an amazing help, but it's taken a lot of years and lots of oops moments to be as prepared as I am now haha :)

Sailing SV Delos

Haha Sierra with her little hat and cane we found on the beach πŸ˜‚ That one was our favorite!

Sailing SV Delos

See your tattoo artist thought ahead it’s not a random dot… it’s bird poop. sad that all those pictures are starting to fade

Capt. Dustin LaBorde

Love, love, love the fame/shame game. As a long time viewer it’s as much a walk through the past for me as it is for you. Thank you for the smile Inow can’t get rid of

Paul Taylor

A great image for a maddening 3000-piece puzzle!

William Flower

Love the hall of fame/shame segment.

David Hagler

Love the fame, shame! This episode had me really smiling well done, Cheers

SV Trippin'

Love the blast from the past segment! And Brian, again, if you didn’t understand how things work, know how to fix things, using what you have no less, AND you didn’t plan super well and have all those spare parts, you could NOT be in this lifestyle well, safely and comfortably! Especially as a family. So pat yourself on the back and know that you are very much appreciated by all of us watching these and being so so glad you are all in safe hands! Love you guys!!

Shelly Ackerman

Great outtakes. Liked the wall of fame spin segment!

Sean Murray

Hahaha that's a great idea actually πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

now if there was ever an NFT I would consider buying.... it would be the SV Delos wall of fame :)

Brian Travis

Glad you enjoyed William, we LOVED filming this and will def do more in the future. Great idea to have Sierra pick one next time!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Jim, oh man those tamales sound legendary! Glad you enjoyed the tattoo scene, I knew some of the basics about these traditions but learned so much while putting this one together! Sweet can't wait for the boat show, gonna be such a fun time!

Sailing SV Delos

I could never part with my stash of spares! Haha glad you enjoyed Richard!

Sailing SV Delos

Love the wall of shame segment... great way to tie in past experiences. I think it would be cool to dig into the archives and find them, and build a whole video around them. Get Nugget to pick some too!

William Flower

Tamale''s !! I would give my right arm for a good tamale ha. Back in the 70's, Pueblo, Colorado, I'm 19 years old ( ya I know, be quiet : ) The Coors Tavern on Prairie Ave. was walking distance from home, uhoh .ya Late at night the locals would show up with home made tamale's. They were killer delicious!! They'd walk thru the tavern and sell them off trays. The good ole days. Great history on the tattoos Brian. I knew it had its roots in sailing but I never knew of the symbols or their meaning. I now look at your tattoos with new respect, especially the swallows. 70k plus is wicked amazing. I have 758. An epic voyage from Deale Maryland to Fernandino Beach FL. I crewed on a 36' Catalina, down the ICW, same model as Jeff B. We replaced the water pump, $1000, one of many projects to get the boat ready. I'll tell you about it when I see you in Annapolis. Great episode. Be well my friend !! P S Love the wall of sh-fame photo segment!

Jim Krieger

Keep the all the Spare parts your work bench serves you just fine. Love the wall segment.

Richard S Florence

Also loved the slow tv from last week, hope to see more in the future. Keep up the awesome work and lifestyle. Someday I hope to be out there as well. For now watching others adventures is keeping the dream alive.

Bart Casey

You should keep doing them the faded once’s are the mess made us actual go back and watch some vintage Delos such awesome Delos history😳

Lisa & Claude

Thanks Tom, glad you enjoyed it we just LOVED filming it...so many more memories to relive!

Sailing SV Delos

For sure Bart, we had so much fun with this one, definitely going to be a recurring segment!

Sailing SV Delos

So true, we just loved filming this one!

Sailing SV Delos

Yeah we're gonna have to fully explore the wall and all its best secrets!

Sailing SV Delos

Oh man, it's a literal gold mine...so many amazing (and cringey πŸ˜‚) memories to be relived!

Sailing SV Delos

Hell yeah brother, that sounds like a solid Friday if you ask me!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks David we love it too! Def gonna do more of these!

Sailing SV Delos

Yep left hander, then eventually round the back and other trick shots! hahaha

Sailing SV Delos

I know she's just to cute to handle sometimes...and little did we know that was just the beginning of our spirit animals, ended up turning into a multiple month endeavour for her making sure we always had our animals with us πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Yes! We loved filming this SO much, def gonna do that one again!

Sailing SV Delos

We miss Brady too! We can't wait to see him and blue at the boat show! They're pretty busy with their sailing school and their own boat, so a reunion on Delos isn't very likely, but they are going to take their boat down to Mexico later this year so we are really hoping to link up!

Sailing SV Delos

Oh yeah that's a great idea I need to add those in!

Sailing SV Delos

The wall segment is awesome

Tom Caban

Definitely keep going with recounting the wall of shame/fame.

Bart Casey

Love the wall of fame/shame segments. Brings back memories.

Bill Dapp

As soon as I saw it I yelled "Madagascar "!

Guy Thayer

More wall of fame/shame. Pick the corners.

Mark Kline

So love the wall of fame/shame and the stories behind to old pictures

Lisa & Claude

I'm anchored out on my little Catalina 25 after an afternoon sail. The margaritas are flowing and a great episode of Delos. Life couldn't get much better. Cheers!

Michael Conway

Love the Wall of Fortune segment!

David Griffiths

Wall of Fortune +1. But you have to pick left-handed sometimes.

Jeff Fischer

What a great episode..it had all kinds o stuff.. love the wall of fame shame idea i loved Sierras reaction to going sailing. had to make you feel awesome. just knowing she is enjoying the sailing part also.

Scurvy Dan

Love the Wall of Shame stories!!!

Michael Sands

This made me realise how much I miss Brady. Any chance he will be back on the boat again?

The Quizzle

Wall of Fortune was a great idea to perhaps drive views on older videos if you can add links to those or at least the general number of say, St. Helena videos.

Anne West

Awesome David, we love it too, def gonna do some more of these they're such a crack up πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Hahaha I know, hopefully he can get me back by telling some super embarrassing stories during the circumnavigation presentation at the boat show πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Haha yes I'm so happy that our first ever wall of fortune was such a hilarious picture πŸ˜‚ Yewwww so stoked for the boat show!

Sailing SV Delos

So glad you liked the wall of fortune! If these walls could talk, oh man are there some stories to be told there πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Aw happy we could provide you with so many hours of good vibes during COVID! And we haven't digitized any of the photos yet but we've actually been talking about that recently, we really need to do it! Also we were thinking about retiring some of the older faded ones into a scrapbook to make them last and also to make room for new ones since we're running out of real estate on that wall!

Sailing SV Delos

We do to! Gonna have to do more of these for sure, such a crack up πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks Jeff, so glad you enjoyed this one, yep this one has a bit of it all...it's funny because when we looked back on Chiapas we weren't really sure what the video would turn out like since it was a bit of a drag there, but actually once we went through everything we realized we had a pretty good time there πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Hehehe the woo hoo never gets old! Glad you liked the wall of fortune, this might be our new fav end of video segment we had a blast filming this one πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

Yewwww so stoked! It's coming up so fast, can't wait!

Sailing SV Delos

Thanks, Leila did SUCH an amazing job...and Max gets a gold star for effort πŸ˜‚ Haha just kidding the stray dot is actually my favorite part of the design!

Sailing SV Delos

Yewwww glad you enjoyed Ron, we really loved putting this one together, so many laugh out loud moments going through all the footage πŸ˜‚

Sailing SV Delos

As one of the "machinist" you refered to, if you would lose some of those spare parts, you'd have room for the special tools required for proper bearing service. That, and we can arm wrestle over seal orientation. But all in all, another great video. Keep'em coming!!

William Gross

Absolutely love the Wall of Fame you did at the end. Two thumbs up to continue with it.

David

"a bit of a spree" πŸ€ͺ poor guy... we've all been there, Brady!

Kim & Leo

That was a fun episode. It had everything: Red tape, ink, hazy memory mementos with featuring Brady... I may be in the minority, but I like the fix-it sessions. See y'all soon at the boat show meetup!

Guy Thayer

Love the new Wall of Fame/Shame dizzy-photo pick out! Will be super interesting to see what happened to the boat at the end there - all that black goop?! Hope it wasn't as bad as it looked!

Victoria Makris

Absolutely love the Wall of Fortune! Since I binged all the way from the beginning during Covid, I actually knew roughly the time period of all the pictures that you guys landed on. Not sure what that says about me LOL... One thing though.. please tell me you guys have scanned those pictures, or at least took digital copies of the wall? Seeing those pictures that have faded, are kind of a visible demonstration of how quickly life goes by.. there will come a day when you wished you could still see them all. Not trying to get all sentimental, just sharing the perspective of someone who'd love a time machine to relive past events.

Sean Martin

Love the wall of fame spin the dockey

Anya Marion

Love the video-beers, bureaucrats, body art with random dots and my favorite:the wall of shame/fame random picks.

Jeff Mack

That wohoo! always makes me smile. Love the wall of shame/fame. Some great memories in there for you all I'm sure.

Andrew Devaney

Good Morning from Annapolis. Show setup will start in about another week to get ready for the power boat show first, then the sailboat show next. Always a fun time watching the crew build the show from our water front bar on Ego Alley , (Fleet Reserve). Cant wait to see the Delos crew and Tribe again. Great video...! See you on the next tack !

Mickey Finn

Great video. Love the Swallow design. Nicely done!

Keep Your Daydream

awesome video.. Worth the wait!!!! Cheers Delos!!!!!

Ron Brock

Ok great! Glad we're up and running now, commence the Friday rituals!

Sailing SV Delos

Scott C. Wise

Hey hey, might be worth posting this in the facebook Tribal Council Page, more people are likely to see it there as a post than if it gets buried in the comments here...are you a member of that group? If not send us a message here on Patreon and we will get you set up in the group :)

We were hoping to come to Annapolis this fall but it seems finding accommodations has become cost prohibitive. My wife and I would be willing to share the cost of a house if anyone wants to. We don’t take up much space.

HopsScotch
