- [Brian] After weeks of hard labor,
we're finally seeing the light
at the end of the tunnel,
and projects are being completed
at a furious rate.
High-five, dude.
- Good job.
- [Brian] Luckily, we found an incredible place
at Roger and Sally's house in Annapolis,
so our quick rest stop has turned into a full on
boat project marathon.
With the weather getting colder by the day,
we're even more motivated to finish up
so Delos can set sail south to warmer climates.
We're getting down to the nitty gritty.
We're gonna put the sail up,
we're gonna inspect the navigation lights today,
we're gonna check the rig.
We've got a cross-breeze today,
so the sail's gonna be blowing off the port side of the boat
right onto the dock, which is really convenient.
Kaza will go in the back.
She's gonna unfurl the sail.
(button clicks)
And then when the sail unfurls, it's gonna
blow off the side, and then you're just gonna let it down.
I have to take it down this track.
It'll either end up on the deck, or on the dock,
and then we'll fold it and we'll put the new one up.
(soft music)
The guys at Precision Sails really came through for us.
They got us a brand new genoa here.
Beautiful.
She's got the Buddha man design on her.
- [Karin] Cool. - And we're gonna
latch it down, hoist it, and see how she looks.
It's a beautiful sail.
(crank creaks)
(soft marimba music)
- [Karin] Wow.
- [Ryan] Nice.
- Check.
(bell dings)
- [Brian] This is the story of Delos,
a sailboat adventurizing around the world
for the past 10 years.
And now we embark on our greatest adventure of all.
Come join us as we take to the high seas
and travel the world with the newest member of our crew.
If you enjoy Delos videos, please subscribe.
It's a great way to support our channel.
All right, now we're gonna inspect the rigging.
We're gonna be looking at all of the strands on the deck.
First, on the lowers.
And so what I like to do is I like to take this pick,
and I just scrape it around between every strand.
So if you see one strand moves,
that means there's a chance that it's broken down here,
which indicates a problem.
Then we're gonna take a look at the threads.
We're looking for any obvious physical defects
like cracks, a lot of corrosion.
We're checking to make sure that our pins are still in
to keep it from rotating.
So we're just looking for obvious defects.
If you do the deck, then I'll do the same thing at the top
in the bosun's chair.
- [Ryan] Sounds great.
All right, all safety checks are done.
You ready to go?
- Ready to go.
See you up there.
(crank creaks)
(light guitar music)
Okay.
Yep.
I made it to the top.
We're about 65 feet up.
It's a beautiful view up here.
Check this out.
There she is.
That's how far up we are.
How is it down there, Ryan?
- [Ryan] It's looking good, man.
- [Brian] Yeah?
Okay, that's cool.
I'm just doing the same thing that Ryan did at the bottom,
just looking at all the pins, making sure this guy
hasn't been holed through, no cracks there,
inspecting the welds along here for any sort of cracks.
Okay.
(crank creaks)
Nice. Well done.
Yeah, so we've got to replace this topper.
See the chaff on it?
Okay, new topper coming down.
(upbeat guitar music)
(drill whirs)
The hook for the flag.
Flag line done.
And the steaming light.
Hey, check one more off the list.
Boom.
Steaming light in business.
(upbeat guitar music)
- Silly. (Sierra laughs)
- [Brian] She's as excited about this
Svalbard release as we are.
- [Karin] (laughs) I know, right.
- [Brian] Look at that.
(baby babbles)
(Karin laughs)
- [Brian] If you haven't seen this Svalbard series yet,
the little nugget wants you to go check it out.
She's super proud of her parents for
getting it out there.
- So for you who don't know what we're talking about,
we sailed up in Svalbard and have edited together
a four part miniseries about this crazy adventure.
So if you haven't seen it already,
head to 80northseries.com,
and here's a little teaser for you.
- [Brian] Man, this is something that you would
see some crazy person doing in the movies.
(upbeat rock music)
- There's a ton of them over here.
(laughing)
- Oh (beep) that.
- There's a saying that the Arctic will kill the unprepared.
The minute you let your guard down
is when something's gonna happen.
(upbeat rock music)
(birds chirping)
- [Brian] All right, we're nearing down on the end
of the projects here in Annapolis.
One of the things we started doing
as we walked up the dock
(blows air) to the workshop
is counting our trips by paying the toll
of a rock in the bucket. (rock bangs)
So we were wondering how many times we walk
up and down these stairs every day,
and I think it's a lot.
So every time we walk pass, we have to pay a toll.
- It's day number 11 of us putting a rock in the bucket
for each trip either up to the shop,
or from the shop back to the boat.
- [Brian] So I have two questions for you.
Number one, how far do you think it is
from right here to the workshop door?
- 37 steps, and 158 feet.
- [Brian] You know exactly.
- No, I made it up, but it sounded good.
(all laugh)
- [Brian] How many trips do you think we've done
over these 11 days?
- I'm going 300.
- [Brian] 300.
- 300 trips.
- 327.
- [Brian] Wow.
- [Ryan] Wait, wait, are you Price Is Righting me?
Are you gonna go one dollar?
Brian's gonna go one dollar, I bet.
- [Brian] I'm gonna go 328.
(rocks swooshing)
Each one of those rocks, we figure
represents 290 feet.
So every 18
- 18. - [Bryan] one-way trips
is a mile.
- [Karin] So the boys are outside
counting their rocks right now, and (laughs)
I am gonna wait until their done.
And then do you want to go outside and show them
the little video?
- [Roger] It's 160,370 feet.
- [Brian] What?
553 trips we've done in the last 11 days.
- (laughs) No way.
- 28.2784091 miles.
- [Brian] And that's for basically-
- 11 days. - [Brian] 11 days.
And we've been here for just over five weeks now.
- [Ryan] Yeah, so...
- That's including you two.
I just want to show you the video as well
just before you get too...
- [Karin] Sierra? (laughs)
Sierra?
(laughs) No, you're ruining (laughs) the counting.
(laughs)
(rocks swoosh) No. (laughs)
Take that out.
Boys, not sure if your counting is gonna be accurate.
(laughs)
- [Brian] What? (all laugh)
Nugget, have you been contributing?
- Sierra!
- [Brian] Now we're understanding how it was making
some smaller pebbles.
Either way, those are pretty impressive.
(baby cries) - Oh, no.
- Is that sad?
- [Brian] Rock fraud.
- [Roger] We have to stay 11 more days.
(baby cries)
- [Brian] Come here, baby nugget.
Come here.
Aw, you're okay.
(baby cries)
Did mommy blow your cover?
(light jazz music)
- It's almost time.
We are getting so close to having all,
or most of our projects done.
You can never have all projects done.
It's just not possible. (laughs)
But I think it's time to go.
We're all feeling it,
and we're in the cleaning up mode,
which feels absolutely amazing.
I'm probably gonna put in one more order of food tomorrow,
and then we might even move off the dock,
which feels great, to be honest.
We have to time it with the high tide,
so we probably have to get out tomorrow,
and then maybe leave the next day.
That's the plan.
(baby coos)
Yeah, are you excited about that?
Both. (laughs)
No, I'm super ready.
I think Sierra is too.
It's getting cold here.
It is cold.
Yeah.
So yeah, getting off the dock tomorrow.
Yay!
(birds chirp)
- [Brian] All right, Kaza.
- The moment of truth.
- [Brian] It's time to test it.
- I feel nervous.
- [Brian] I'm nervous too because I replaced a lot of stuff.
And we have to get the air out of the system,
so can you just...
I primed it, but can you turn the key over?
Can you turn it over for like five or ten seconds?
(engine revs)
Okay, turn the key off.
I'll prime it a little bit.
There's no weird sounds, so that's good.
- Try it again?
(engine revs)
- [Brian] Okay, I'm gonna have to bleed the injector.
Since I replaced nearly all the fuel injection system,
there's a lot of air trapped inside.
Okay, go ahead.
Bleeding the system moves the trapped air,
and allows the fuel to flow through the injection pump
and be squirted through the injectors
right into the cylinders.
- [Karin] There's black stuff coming out, smoke too.
- What is that?
Idiot. (laughs)
- [Ryan] What happened?
- (laughs) I'll show you.
I put the gasket in the wrong way.
That's how it was.
All the holes line up, but then there's a gap.
There's a gap down here.
That's where our smoking dragon came from.
I think the tide's high enough to try the engine.
(laughs) We have to wait for the tide to come up.
That's how ground we are.
It's ridiculous.
Here we go.
Here goes nothing. (engine revs)
(Brian cheers)
- [Karin] That was quick.
(engine whirs)
- We got water.
We got water flow.
I can feel it.
So far so good.
No leaks.
No oil leak.
I don't see any fuel leaks.
That was a lot of work.
(Karin laughs)
Man.
- [Karin] That's crazy.
That's amazing, though.
Good job, Brian.
Are you relieved?
- Yeah.
- [Karin] How do you feel right now?
- Like I'm gonna make myself a really stiff whiskey.
(all laugh)
- [Karin] And watch a Netflix movie and go to bed.
- Yeah.
- [Karin] That's great. - Oh, wow.
We're no longer stranded at the dock.
We now have an engine. (claps)
- [Karin] Yay.
- Good news.
- [Brian] I just wanted to thank you once again
for your hospitality and letting us use the shop.
It was a game changer for us,
and just having a nice, quiet, calm place,
dock to tie up to, cars to use.
Thank you so much.
- Well, you're most welcome.
That's what the boathouse is here for.
- [Brian] Whatever possessed you?
- Loved having you here. (laughs)
- [Brian] To invite somewhat strangers
to your humble abode, and...
- Well, you're not strangers anymore.
You're friends.
- [Brian] Good answer.
- [Roger] That was Sally's fault,
and I'm so glad she did it.
- [Brian] Right.
All right guys, well, thank you so much for everything.
- Oh my gosh.
- It's amazing. - This has been
- So amazing. - So cool.
- Yeah, we really enjoyed it.
Yeah, we're...
- We will meet again, that's for sure.
- We will, we will.
I'm sure we'll be back through Annapolis again.
(water splashes) - [Karin] Started up.
That's a good sign.
(Karin cheers)
- [Karin] Are you nervous?
- Nah.
- [Karin] No? (laughs)
- We've done this before.
What was supposed to be a quick two week rest stop
had somehow turned into a six week mini refit.
By doing all the work ourselves
and rebuilding our injectors and pumps
rather than buy new ones,
saved us well over $5,000 in parts alone.
Together, including myself, Karin, Bill, and Ryan,
we put in over 400 hours of labor during our stay,
which at pretty common rates here in Annapolis,
saved us over $40,000.
We got an incredible amount of work done,
and once again, Delos and her crew
were ready to hit the high seas
and continue our adventure.
A huge thanks to the kind souls of Roger and Sally,
who opened up their home and hearts to us.
You're sailors in the truest sense of the word,
and we wish you the fairest of winds
as you continue your own sailing adventures.
Up next on Delos,
we're hit by a storm on the Chesapeake.
- [Announcer] Storm warning.
Today northeast winds, then becoming north,
35 to 50 knots.
- [Brian] 35 to 50.
And get our asses absolutely handed to us.
And our downwind pole gets damaged.
(light guitar music)
It's like a big kid video.
Oh, look.
Little in stature.
All right, everybody know their jobs?
Baby nugget, do you have a job?
Just looking cute.
- [Karin] Don't touch.
Good night.
- [Brian] Bye bye.
- Bye bye.
(Brian imitates door closing)
- [Brian] Oh, you're back.
- Hello.
(light guitar strumming)
