Nope Nothing To See Here

LIVIN’ like the LOCALS in Paraty, Brazil! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep.179

Follow behind the scenes on Instagram @svdelos

It’s fair to say that despite Brasil’s amazing food and gorgeous coastline, by far our favorite aspect of this country is it’s PEOPLE! Brasilians always offer their instant friendship and a helping hand whenever they can! Check out our time in Paraty as we make friends with some locals who cook us local cuisine aboard Delos, show us some secret waterfalls, and attempt to teach us to slack line 😉 We also explore the colonial city of Paraty and learn how the ballast street stones which now line the streets were once traded for gold and the tide rises into the streets to keep the city clean! Hope you enjoy this mash-up from Killa Kril & Alex Blue! MUCH LOVE!! (more…)

Team edit with Leeesir, Killa Kiril, and Capt. Breeyawn! It’s a great mix of personality and beautiful nature! We kick off by celebrating Leesir’s birthday. She wanted to go hiking, but the weather wasn’t cooperating. YEAH says Lizbef 🙂 We end up having a party on Delos instead with lot’s of caipirinha’s followed by a Japanese inspired cooking marathon. YEAH says everyone 🙂 Up next we jump in a Jeep and take a 4×4 trail to the wild side of Ilha Bela, Castelhanos beach, where we encounter the raw beauty of the island and also the largest waterfall, over 70M (200 ft) high! Pretty soon it’s time to set sail for our next destination, so Capt. Breeyawn heads to the local marine store to sort out some parts, where he gets to practice his Portuguese skills with some success.

We’re gonna get you VERRRYYY DRUUNNKK! Sailing Vessel Delos Ep.171

Brazilian CHURRASCO TIME!!! :). We decide to sail Delos to the other side of Ilha Bela, to some cruising grounds that look really sweet on the chart. At our first stop we get eaten alive by man-eating flies known locally as Borrachudos! We flee to another anchorage and take some time to reflect on what it means to live and work on a sailboat. We get an awesome message from some locals that want to host us for our very first Brazilian Churrasco! Not knowing what is in store for us we arrive to find a fridge full of steaks, cold bear, and we proceed to have one hell of a party. Thanks guys!

After 15 days and 2,240 miles at sea the crew spots the coast of BRAZIL!!!

Nana Mo’s Excellent Adventure on Delos – By Maureen

Ever since I left Delos in Grenada 4 days ago, I haven’t been able to focus on anything but the memories of that incredible experience.

I discovered Delos on YouTube last year while day dreaming about sailing away to exotic places. I was drawn in immediately and it didn’t take long for my husband Colin to become addicted too.

One Year on Delos – by Alex Blue

It is March 30th, 2018 and exactly one year ago I was on a flight half way across the world from my home state of California towards Cape Town, South Africa. The year since then has surely been one of the most challenging and therefore beautiful of my life. For months, I have been contemplating about how to write down what it has meant to me- a grand summation of all I have learned about the earth and myself… but every time I begin brainstorming, my mind gets lost folding into a million different thought patterns. So, in this final moment and in true Delos style, a few rums deep, I will do my best to make it short and sweet.
