Gettin' Deep into the Grenada Cruiser Scene - Ep. 198

Grenada is a black hole that will suck you in, or at least that’s what we’ve heard, and after spending a little time here we can see why!  In this episode we have some incredible sailing,  we say goodbye to Eric, Maureen, and Colin and life returns to normal on Delos.  At least for a few hours…. Rick from Sophisticated Lady tel...

One Helluva sail to Grenada! - Sailing Vessel Delos Ep.197

The sail from Trinidad to Grenada is supposed to be eazy-peazy right?  Just a leisurely 80NM sail to another island.  NOPE!!!   It turns out to be one of the roughest overnight passages we’ve had this season with squalls gusting into the 40 knot range that knocked us around all night long with big seas and current against us. ...

A SAILBOAT up a South American Jungle river? - Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 194

Why would you sail your home up a jungle river in French Guyana? 

Well because it’s fun obviously!  One of our favorite things is exploring off the beaten path in Delos, and taking our sailing home up a fresh water river is too cool to pass up.  We get Delos way back off of a small tributary and anchor up for some dinghy explorin...
