Early & Ad Free: Why We’re Building A Catamaran (THE EXPERIMENT)....Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 469

Hey hey Delos Tribe! This is our LAST episode in French Polynesia for a while, and it's a pretty fun/sentimental/crazy one if I do say so myself. After 15 years on a monohull, we're finally making the switch to a catamaran....but funnily enough we've actually spent an incredibly small amount of time on catamarans. We've done little sails here...

Early & Ad Free: Saying Goodbye To Delos (BUT FIRST…🫣)Sailing Vessel Delos Ep. 468

Wowwwww Can't believe this episode is finally here! Such a huge moment for us as we close such a big chapter for now...but honestly it was kind of hard to process leaving Delos because the haul out itself was a bit of a wild card that had us prepping and feeling a bit of "healthy" concern about the whole process 😂 This was by far our sketchi...

Patrons ONLY! Delos 2.0 Timelapse #5 (Crossbeam and Longeron Fabrication)

Hey team- This timelapse takes us right up to the FLIP! We needed to switch back and forth between camera angles as most of the action is the fabrication of the longeron and the cross beam. They are two huge elements and needed to be finished before the flip as the entire weight of the boat would hang from them! Hope you enjoy this and as alw...
