Brian and Karin. I just completed watching ALL 74 of your videos. I simply wanted to congratulate you on your hard work, not only sailing, repairing, cleaning, cooking, etc., but especially for your beautiful,, extremely well edited videos. On a personal nature, Brian I am not sure I have ever watched ANYBODY do ANYTHING with such a calm, even handed attitude as yours. Most people would show frustration, anger, etc., but you seem to take it all in evenly and just "get her done" without fanfare. And Karin, thank you for all of YOUR hard work, and early morning hours on watch. You are a TROOPER! Keep up the good work!
I've watched this particular episode many times. It never fails to put a huge smile on my face, especially when Santoosh is on the boat.. Adorable!! I'm so glad you were able to meet him while there.
I would have loved to see Santosh join the crew. That could be the perfect escape he desired! Also it would be nice if you could make an Album of all the Delos tunes including all the ones in the background, I just really enjoy the soundtrack to these videos!
Another awesome video guys. And congratulations for hitting the 100,000 mark in subscribers!! You've definitely earned it and will always be the original sailing TH-cam channel! Keep up the good work and fair winds.
You guys give hope to humanity!!!! Your videos bring some much joy and excitement and it teaches how to live in the moment. Not to be scared of the unknown but to embrace the unexpected and live life to the fullest! I thank you!!!
Santosh, My wife and I would love to sponsor you on a B2 visitors visa to the United States or even a work visa. We truly mean it! Another great Delos video! What an amazing journey!
Hello brother thanks a lot for your true words it means a lot to me. Would love to come US please let me know your Contact info over santosh.dayarkar@gmail.com
Definitely my favorite Delos video ever. Nothing like India for bureaucratic b.s. Like other commentators, I loved Santosh. What a guy. I laughed at 21:00 when Brian told him in his best pidgin accent to say "pick 'em up anchor" (sounded more like something Tonto might say) but Santosh properly said "pick up 'da anchor". Way to rise above it Santosh.
Hello all! My wife and I were in the first 50 sponsors on Patreon. We'd like to say thank you for sharing your experiences. This is the first time we have posted anything. Your sharing of your experiences is wonderful and reminds us of our times backpacking across Europe. Which incidentally we did separately and with out having met. There is something about the spirit of adventure and the thrill of not knowing what the next day holds that drives us to bring out the best not only in ourselves but to also seek it in those we meet along the way. You have done an excellent job of distilling this out into your videos.. My hope is that our paths cross as we drink in this amazing planet and all the many blessings it offers up in the most inconspicuous times. We are currently in a time that keeps us from fully engaging in our wanderlust so that we might make the best possible way for our children who are now, amazingly entering their time of life to find thier way in this world. As we look forward to our possibilities,bad well as yours, our hope at this time is in the Caribbean. We realize this is a long way off for you and with that , hope that by the time you are nearing this part of your adventure we may be able to join you for a portion of your time there.. Tight lines and favorable windsBrad and Melissa
great video guys. Lov the way u go native, u guys r fearless n when going native that can b a beautiful thing. I really enjoy the fact that u r not out to remake a "globe trekker" episode, but showing us a glimpse of sailing life, real life with its ups n downs, the good the bad n the ugly. it's really a sweet thing that u guys r not the "Ugly Americans" or in Delos's case Ugly Foreigners:) love the way u guys are not judgemental accepting folks for who they are n where they r. Really loved Josje comments/insights, specially at the wedding n after the run-in with the police n then saying, "trying to rap my head around it" that can be so true when traveling in the 3rd world n u could hav complained, been shocked even insulted, your analysis was spot on, yet no judgment. All ur videos r pretty cool n special to me. but this one really touched me n for me at least it captivated your beauty. May u always have favorable winds n best of luck to u all.
Incredible and exciting lay over. Santosh indeed is a gem. Indians largely are big hearted, helpful and generous. Glad you had a memorable time here. Keep safe sailing.
As a portuguese this marriage was no good for me .....I would never buy a "car" without first driving it.........Great video guys. Have a good sailing.
WOW! Yet another excellent adventure with DELOS. Really got into this. Strange and exotic places, danger, intrigue and fun. The best escape. Perhaps this is the best? No, you-guys have done it again! This is now without a doubt my favorite channel.
The positive vibes of the Delos crew always seems to attract the most helpful people from the local ports you visit at the right time to make your adventures so special. Well done all you salty sailors and ambassadors of the world. Santosh really took good care of the Delos crew! What an amazing cool dude. How cool would it be to have him on a passage with you!
My personal favorite episode! Enjoyed every moment of it. The smuggling, wedding, drinking, laughing. Amazing how you guys show us this remote country, great people and different culture. Super well done!
Santosh is a pretty cool dude. I believe he wanted to leave that place and sail away with y'all. But like Brian said, "you make these connections with people, and then comes the time to leave." I bet Santosh will be thinking about the Delos crew for a while and how y'all brighten up his week as much as he did y'alls. Good video guys.
I exist only to live long enough to see another episode... Delos is my new religion, I ain't never had a dream like this before... thanks for doing all the hard work so we dont have to..
Out with Babs and in with Santosh. Maybe it sounds abit hard but Santosh would be one awsome Delos crew member and this channel would benifit with that kind of energy. Cheers from Sweden.
I love your videos guys! You guys are awesome. 3 cheers to the Delos crew!. Butter chicken bureau-crazy! That was funny. FYI: India has as much freedom as America does, if not more. The andamans, nicobar, and lakshadeep islands are protected littoral union territories of India, so they have different rules than mainland India. Even indians who are not native to those islands have to go by these rules, and need special permit to visit or live in those islands. In addition these islands are sensitive from a military standpoint. I think some nut job went paranoid and called the cops. Just bad luck. Otherwise they would have had a good time. Santosh seems to be cool dude. cheers to him! BTW.. on a humorous note, you can't really blame the Indians on being paranoid about white people. The last time they showed up at India's shores, they said they came to trade, but within a few years the put the gun to indian's head, colonized them, sucked the place dry, rendered them dirt poor, and didn't leave for another 200-300 years. :P
Wow. Speechless. So many remarks/questions. Don't do the videos so long. I'm lost. Lucky you to experience all this foreign customs/culture (i know). Lucky you all. Hope you enjoyed it. Frida and Kiwi are the best.
A great episode; I really enjoy following your travels. You don't let the bureaucracy keep you from awesome experiences and wonderful people. Thank you for bringing us along! Fair winds.
You are incredible! .. I follow them all their course, from the beginning! ... You are my dreams come true. With all my love from Argentina, thanks for these wonderful gifts... ---- Ustedes son increibles!.. los sigo por todo su derrotero, desde el comienzo!... Ustedes son mis sueños hechos realidad. Con todo mi amor desde Argentina, gracias por estos regalos maravillosos
Thank you for your dedication to showing us the world that we live in. I love each of your videos. If you come through San Francisco, CA I'll have to bring out a platoon of sailboats, and have you all for dinner.
What an amazing adventure! Just think, you could be wasting your lives behind some desk in some mammoth American corporation. Instead you are seeing the world on your own terms. What a great example of how to use life well!
Another great video. Good to see you get in and out of India with minimal hassle. And the butter chicken smuggling ring is genius. Santos seems like a really good guy. Awesome that your paths crossed.
Hey just saw this video. Its so good to see you enjoyed your stay in india, but what you have seen ia just a fraction of what india has to Show you. Thanks santosh for helping them from all indians.
Excellent video. One of your best. I like the story and level of detail. Thirty minutes is a very good length. Really looking forward to the next video. Excited to see you actually doing some sailing.
Pure Awesomeness....Keep up the good, work I'm never disappointed when the new Delos video comes out. And love how you guys show every thing together the good the bad and what's just a pain in the ass.....Can't wait for the next video...till the Fair Winds Delos
Epic video, one of the best ever. What a fantastic experience to attend a wedding and see so many things more tourists never will. All I can say is Wow!!
Spectacular adventure! I love you guys! And to think I thought I was the global traveler as an Army Paratrooper...you guys have me beat my miles! Thanks so much for what you do! Andrew
Isn't it amazing that we understand so little about foreign cultures, then when they come to America they find it so difficult to live within our culture. It takes a lot of patience and acceptance for us all the live together in peace when the world seems to be coming apart, your videos help us to see what happens, I would bet most of the issues come from poor communications.
aho.. SV. Delos.. aka.Brady bunch.. All is Love.... heeehee... Butter chicken smugglers... awe ha.. Karen , Bryan great job. !!! The wedding was way cool.. I thank the Higher power for your path to cross with Santosh.. That man is a real good guy his love was showing. We will have to remember to send an annaverstry gift. So India was pretty different culture I so enjoyed it .. Thank you all so very much.. solute... Fair Winds ..
This video is the greatest! Wow! Your visit to India is an eye opener. Same planet, different world. The wedding between 2 people that have never met is so foreign to us North American yet a daily occurrence in so many countries. At least this young couple were same age and looked good in appearance. Missing was their smile on the most beautiful day of their life... And the sign above the newlyweds, in English. Can't wait for your next video. Fair winds
We just got back from a western Caribbean vacation. I couldn't help but look out over those waters thinking how cool it would be to see the Delos sail. I did represent the Delos tribe - wore my Delos crew shirt on a day trip in Roatan, Honduras. It has now been bathed in the Caribbean waters, and will hopefully lead to fair winds.
Still loving the way you deal with everything with respect tolerance and understanding checking your judgement at the door. Can't wait to see if a We run across you while crossing the ocean sometime.
Wow! That was an awesome episode, so entertaining and interesting!! Santoosh (Sp?) was a super cool dude, I wish that guy luck. He really put himself out there and took some risks to show you guys around and give you a chance to really experience the culture. What an amazingly generous and kind person Santoosh is.. That wedding was awesome too, congratulations to the young couple! What a great experience to get a glimpse of how things are done in beautiful India. Can't wait for the next video, hope all is well.
Oh man I can't tell you how much I love watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing what you do with the rest of us. I am just sad that I happen to come from the same part of Washington that you do otherwise I'd tell you to come check out the San Juans! You all seem like people I'd like to hang out with someday. Cheers!
Thanks guys, was a real eye opener, I have a friend who does some design work for me who is in India, Now I have a better idea regarding his enviorment. Cheers
Absolutely brilliant, guys! The BS you encountered when saying goodbye to Santosh was unreal. To say the locals actions and reactions to your presence was like a cheese grater up the back of my neck is something of an understatement, but you all handled it (or appeared to) a hell of a lot better than I would have likely done. Excellent! I really look forward to seeing your videos. So much so that I think I might just start from the beginning again. Just watching Brady gain his sealegs and keep his stomach in will be more than worth it ;) Thank you, good luck and godspeed across the waters to all of you.
4 words that could sum up your entire Andamen visit ... Definitely Maybe Making Progress. Just when I think that the bureaucracy isn't worth the effort to visit the Andamen Islands, you go and meet someone like Santosh. Just goes to show that a little effort and patience can pay off in the end. Peace and happiness Santosh and Fair Winds Delos.
Your Plan C reminds me of this quote: "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway". -Andrew Tanenbaum, 1981 The xkcd blog ("What If") did an excellent article about this kind of data transfer, which has come to be known as "sneakernet".
People slagging on India need to chill out. I've done five different trips to India and have loved it every time. It's NEVER what you expect but it's charming all on its own. Yes the bureaucracy can drive you silly but if you smile and let them know you, the people you meet will easily make it all worthwhile. Santosh of is a great ambassador for his country and I've met many like him. While there were challenges, that's all part of travelling in third world countries - I don't think the Delos crew would take back those weeks for anything. I've seen similar or worse in places like Zimbabwe and Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. It isn't all white beaches, bonfires and sundowners at sunset. Thanks to Delos for showing us the other side. I think Brian got it right that the worst part of travelling is saying good bye to all the cool people you meet. The Indian people let them into their lives (and wedding) - that's awesome. Who cares about a few paper pushers who were well trained by the British at the end of the day anyway. The hassles, crowds and uncertainties just add to the experience to make sure you never forget it.
Safe sail up to Namibia... we drove down that coast in 2012 and it's beautiful but challenging! Swapomund is an interesting place for sure and if you are docking at Walvis Bay, be sure to check it out. It's the Queenstown of Namibia - lots of adventure things to do. Hope you have a great sail and fair winds!
I love your uploads. I wish I could be on your crew. Out of all the sailing channels your channel gives the best world experience and the Indian video was really interesting. Your new friend should join your crew. Keep up the good work and have safe travels.
Aaahhhhh it's late Thursday night so Dalos is going to post a video! I can't wait. Every time I hear the opening music I feel like I'm home again. Thanks for posting again. I'm really looking forward to some serious sailing video as you cross the Indian ocean.
Santosh is a rock star! Hope you meet up with him again someday.
Frida in rare form.
Great episode, y'all!

All 74…wow…ummm got some news for you, lol….im rewatching. What a party
Traveling can be so amazing because of the opportunity to meet people who make that experience special. Santosh is one of those!
The word “Santosh” means happiness/Bliss.
Looks like he made sure you all had an enjoyable time there.
Please Please arrange it so that Santosh can be part of the crew in the future. What a guy! Thanks for the upload :D
I've watched this particular episode many times. It never fails to put a huge smile on my face, especially when Santoosh is on the boat.. Adorable!! I'm so glad you were able to meet him while there.
I would have loved to see Santosh join the crew. That could be the perfect escape he desired! Also it would be nice if you could make an Album of all the Delos tunes including all the ones in the background, I just really enjoy the soundtrack to these videos!
Santosh is sooo cool.. He is the Rick James of India!!! I may go there just to hang out with him!
Thanks mate for your kind words
who is rick james
Another awesome video guys. And congratulations for hitting the 100,000 mark in subscribers!! You've definitely earned it and will always be the original sailing TH-cam channel! Keep up the good work and fair winds.

Wow just realized that they only had 100,000!?!? How is that even possible
What a super-cool dude Santosh is. I hope he is doing well.
You guys give hope to humanity!!!! Your videos bring some much joy and excitement and it teaches how to live in the moment. Not to be scared of the unknown but to embrace the unexpected and live life to the fullest! I thank you!!!
Santosh, My wife and I would love to sponsor you on a B2 visitors visa to the United States or even a work visa. We truly mean it!

Pls type properly 😖
What a great video, Santosh was a good friend, similar to what you meet all over the world, want nothing but gave a lot, it's friendship.
Santosh...what a cool dude , hats off to you all , fair winds ,
Incredible and exciting lay over. Santosh indeed is a gem. Indians largely are big hearted, helpful and generous. Glad you had a memorable time here. Keep safe sailing.

People like Santosh make the world a better place
The positive vibes of the Delos crew always seems to attract the most helpful people from the local ports you visit at the right time to make your adventures so special. Well done all you salty sailors and ambassadors of the world. Santosh really took good care of the Delos crew! What an amazing cool dude. How cool would it be to have him on a passage with you!
I have seen all of your videos and this one has got to be one of my all time favorites. Keep the sails with the wind and journey on.
My personal favorite episode! Enjoyed every moment of it. The smuggling, wedding, drinking, laughing. Amazing how you guys show us this remote country, great people and different culture. Super well done!
Oh thanks so much guys, there was a lot of craziness in this one. Glad you enjoyed! Fair Winds- Brian
There is something so wonderfully Delos about a couple of guys rolling a drum of illicit diesel fuel down a dock in the middle of the night. :D
One of your best episodes yet. Thanks for posting such heartfelt sentiments on this one.
Santosh is a pretty cool dude. I believe he wanted to leave that place and sail away with y'all. But like Brian said, "you make these connections with people, and then comes the time to leave." I bet Santosh will be thinking about the Delos crew for a while and how y'all brighten up his week as much as he did y'alls. Good video guys.

Wow. Speechless. So many remarks/questions. Don't do the videos so long. I'm lost.
Lucky you to experience all this foreign customs/culture (i know). Lucky you all. Hope you enjoyed it.
Frida and Kiwi are the best.
A great episode; I really enjoy following your travels. You don't let the bureaucracy keep you from awesome experiences and wonderful people. Thank you for bringing us along! Fair winds.
Awesome episode. Santosh is great guy.
Wow! the old episodes are as good as the new ones!!! I love you guys
These are the absolutely most awsome sailing and travelling videos ever!
Frida gets here 'Andaman' groove on! Santosh is one cool dude!
AWESOME adventure, no wonder you guys stayed so long. Santosh was brilliant!
You are incredible! .. I follow them all their course, from the beginning! ... You are my dreams come true. With all my love from Argentina, thanks for these wonderful gifts...

Ustedes son increibles!.. los sigo por todo su derrotero, desde el comienzo!... Ustedes son mis sueños hechos realidad. Con todo mi amor desde Argentina, gracias por estos regalos maravillosos
Thank you for your dedication to showing us the world that we live in. I love each of your videos. If you come through San Francisco, CA I'll have to bring out a platoon of sailboats, and have you all for dinner.
What an amazing adventure! Just think, you could be wasting your lives behind some desk in some mammoth American corporation. Instead you are seeing the world on your own terms. What a great example of how to use life well!
Another great video. Good to see you get in and out of India with minimal hassle. And the butter chicken smuggling ring is genius. Santos seems like a really good guy. Awesome that your paths crossed.
Ps. That's perfectly normal behavior for a Navy.
One more awesome Delos video, often imitated, never duplicated, you guys are unique
Hey just saw this video. Its so good to see you enjoyed your stay in india, but what you have seen ia just a fraction of what india has to Show you.
Thanks santosh for helping them from all indians.
So love your videos. I'm still stuck in the north but am headed south on my boat in two weeks. Hope my adventures are as cool as yours!
Words of wisdom captain Brain. Friends always in your heart no matter were in the world they are. Sorry for being cheesy
Excellent video. One of your best. I like the story and level of detail. Thirty minutes is a very good length. Really looking forward to the next video. Excited to see you actually doing some sailing.
Amazing insights, not the place to travel alone or just a male/female couple by the looks of it! Really enjoyed this episode, thanks.
Does Santosh look like an Indian version of Brian?
he actually does
He looks like an indian version of Riley from La Vagabonde :D
This is the best yet. Loved it.
Give you guys a lot of credit for roaming around India! Great video and it's on to Australia...Fair Winds!
Pure Awesomeness....Keep up the good, work I'm never disappointed when the new Delos video comes out. And love how you guys show every thing together the good the bad and what's just a pain in the ass.....Can't wait for the next video...till the Fair Winds Delos
I love how at 21:43 the Delos emblem shape of the clouds was sitting on top of the sunset.
Spectacular !
Epic video, one of the best ever. What a fantastic experience to attend a wedding and see so many things more tourists never will. All I can say is Wow!!
Thank you for sharing! Living the adventure. Living the dream!
Spectacular adventure! I love you guys! And to think I thought I was the global traveler as an Army Paratrooper...you guys have me beat my miles! Thanks so much for what you do!

SANTOSH IS THE MAN!!!
the Indian Wedding is so surreal and amazing!
Isn't it amazing that we understand so little about foreign cultures, then when they come to America they find it so difficult to live within our culture. It takes a lot of patience and acceptance for us all the live together in peace when the world seems to be coming apart, your videos help us to see what happens, I would bet most of the issues come from poor communications.
Another great video! The culture is fascinating.
aho.. SV. Delos.. aka.Brady bunch.. All is Love.... heeehee... Butter chicken smugglers... awe ha.. Karen , Bryan great job. !!! The wedding was way cool.. I thank the Higher power for your path to cross with Santosh.. That man is a real good guy his love was showing. We will have to remember to send an annaverstry gift. So India was pretty different culture I so enjoyed it .. Thank you all so very much.. solute... Fair Winds ..

Hey thanks so much for the comment, really appreciate that. We learned a lot during our visit for sure. Fair Winds and wishing you the best!
beautiful video beautiful people. Vancouver Island,Super Natural British Columbia .
Another excellent adventure. It's nice to turn on my computer and sail away with the SV Delos crew. :-)
Wow, never visiting parts of the world that you are visiting I never realized the freedom that we enjoy living in the US! Great episode!!
We just got back from a western Caribbean vacation. I couldn't help but look out over those waters thinking how cool it would be to see the Delos sail. I did represent the Delos tribe - wore my Delos crew shirt on a day trip in Roatan, Honduras. It has now been bathed in the Caribbean waters, and will hopefully lead to fair winds.
This is one of your most epic adventures, thanks!
Another amazing video and it makes you realize how lucky we are to live in the US!
Still loving the way you deal with everything with respect tolerance and understanding checking your judgement at the door. Can't wait to see if a We run across you while crossing the ocean sometime.
Another Fabulous Video. India was quite the adventure for you guys.
Definitely one of your top10 vids..You guys rock!
Wow! That was an awesome episode, so entertaining and interesting!! Santoosh (Sp?) was a super cool dude, I wish that guy luck. He really put himself out there and took some risks to show you guys around and give you a chance to really experience the culture. What an amazingly generous and kind person Santoosh is.. That wedding was awesome too, congratulations to the young couple! What a great experience to get a glimpse of how things are done in beautiful India. Can't wait for the next video, hope all is well.
Oh man I can't tell you how much I love watching your videos. Thank you so much for sharing what you do with the rest of us. I am just sad that I happen to come from the same part of Washington that you do otherwise I'd tell you to come check out the San Juans! You all seem like people I'd like to hang out with someday. Cheers!
Great Video. Glad you were able to get out of there safe and sound.
Thanks guys, was a real eye opener, I have a friend who does some design work for me who is in India, Now I have a better idea regarding his enviorment.
Cheers
Absolutely brilliant, guys!
The BS you encountered when saying goodbye to Santosh was unreal. To say the locals actions and reactions to your presence was like a cheese grater up the back of my neck is something of an understatement, but you all handled it (or appeared to) a hell of a lot better than I would have likely done. Excellent!
I really look forward to seeing your videos. So much so that I think I might just start from the beginning again. Just watching Brady gain his sealegs and keep his stomach in will be more than worth it ;)
Thank you, good luck and godspeed across the waters to all of you.
Andaman is a strategic port for India,hence all the necessary bureaucracy. Think of it like an indian area 51.
yeap it is
No dear it not like area 51... Andaman and Nicobar islands is open for all the foreigners but area 51 is different
Say it the Indian Guam.
😅
Bureaucracy is same every in india mo difference...we are habitual of the system so we never feel it
Nice work with the USB via mail. Never underestimate the bandwidth of a 747 full of floppy disks.
4 words that could sum up your entire Andamen visit ... Definitely Maybe Making Progress. Just when I think that the bureaucracy isn't worth the effort to visit the Andamen Islands, you go and meet someone like Santosh. Just goes to show that a little effort and patience can pay off in the end. Peace and happiness Santosh and Fair Winds Delos.
that was a great video, thanks. I have watched every video you guys have set the standard for sailing videos
Your Plan C reminds me of this quote: "Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway".

The xkcd blog ("What If") did an excellent article about this kind of data transfer, which has come to be known as "sneakernet".
People slagging on India need to chill out. I've done five different trips to India and have loved it every time. It's NEVER what you expect but it's charming all on its own. Yes the bureaucracy can drive you silly but if you smile and let them know you, the people you meet will easily make it all worthwhile. Santosh of is a great ambassador for his country and I've met many like him. While there were challenges, that's all part of travelling in third world countries - I don't think the Delos crew would take back those weeks for anything. I've seen similar or worse in places like Zimbabwe and Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. It isn't all white beaches, bonfires and sundowners at sunset. Thanks to Delos for showing us the other side. I think Brian got it right that the worst part of travelling is saying good bye to all the cool people you meet. The Indian people let them into their lives (and wedding) - that's awesome. Who cares about a few paper pushers who were well trained by the British at the end of the day anyway. The hassles, crowds and uncertainties just add to the experience to make sure you never forget it.
well said bro! :) fair winds from Delos
Safe sail up to Namibia... we drove down that coast in 2012 and it's beautiful but challenging! Swapomund is an interesting place for sure and if you are docking at Walvis Bay, be sure to check it out. It's the Queenstown of Namibia - lots of adventure things to do. Hope you have a great sail and fair winds!
Delos, you're so much fun to follow! Keep up the good work!
I love your uploads. I wish I could be on your crew. Out of all the sailing channels your channel gives the best world experience and the Indian video was really interesting. Your new friend should join your crew. Keep up the good work and have safe travels.
Aaahhhhh it's late Thursday night so Dalos is going to post a video! I can't wait. Every time I hear the opening music I feel like I'm home again.
Thanks for posting again. I'm really looking forward to some serious sailing video as you cross the Indian ocean.
