The crew climbs Banda Api, a pretty sweet volcano in the Spice Islands. We untie Delos from the village quay and set sail for Ambon- the capitol city of the Spice Islands! View More
Manila gets mixed reviews from most people. Fellow cruisers, travel guides, and even locals all have varying opinions. Undeniably there’s a certain pull though, to seeing the capitol city of the Philippines. View More
If Manila had a human avatar she’d be a sultry seductress. She would at first be a little scary, and a little overwhelming. Over time she’d make you feel comfortable drawing you in closer and closer. View More
The crew hits the crazy market in Ambon, Indonesia for a little provisioning, gets some grey-market diesel, and prepares to set sail for Raja Ampat! View More
The crew finally arrives in Raja Ampat after a 250 mile sail from Ambon! We have a week of amazing dives, explore deserted beaches, and party with the local patrol guys protecting these awesome waters! View More
Our new Philipino Family- The Cholos!
“Brian- I think we should try to go!” said Karin. Go where? This was my first thought. Karin has this habit of bringing you right into the middle of her thoughts without any context so I was understandably confused. View More
One of the most amazing things about cruising is how plans can suddenly be washed away. They are truly written in the sand at low tide. Way back in January of this year we planned to sail to Palawan in the Western Philippines, then work our way north towards Mindoro and Puerto Galera. View More
Crewing On Super Yachts – 5 Months Later….By Brady and Josje
“What the hell are we going to do?” I ask Josje as I sit down in the V Berth next to her. She looks at me with the same confused look she has given me the other 50 times I asked her that. “I don’t know, babe. We seriously have no money left. View More
I’ll be the first to say that diving Tubbataha reef was the last thing I saw myself doing this June.

“10. Tubbataha Reef: This is the undisputed king spot for diving, comparable to Malaysia’s Sipadan, but enormous. It’s an atoll way off in the Sulu sea and everyone without fail that I know that has been there has had nothing but ridiculous things to say that border on impossible. View More
A tour showing the outside and inside of Delos- our Amel Super Maramu 53! Delos is a 53 foot Amel Super Maramu. She was built in La Rochelle France in 2000 and has since seen what most sailboats dream of seeing. View More
Great, Relaxing, Cool, and Maybe Some Hard Work! –By Ragnar Syren
Somewhere I heard the quote “Life, that thing that passes while you wait for moments that never come”. Well it doesn’t apply here, not on Delos, here you live in that moment one day at a time. View More
The Delos crew leaves Puerto Princesa in the Philippines behind and sets sail across the Sulu Sea. We stop at Tubbataha Reef for a week of wicked diving, then continue on to Malaysia! View More
