Just watching this and the numbers climbing did some calc.views are at around 1000 per hour(hrs on air divide by views)thus more frequent e.g. weekly videos would increase views and therefore revenue giving more possibilities to do cool stuff,getting more reviews and shares thus growing subscribers... vicious circle...think that's what happened with vagabonde....then you can get to stuff you been wanting to do.....just saying!

Good to hear you guys are sticking to the performance cat plan. Fast cats really are the most fun and I know you guys will get a lot of personal satisfaction in becoming expert at tweaking the rig to make your cat purr and sometimes, even jump and yowl and howl. It's simply exhilarating. And will also be great fun and very exciting for the viewers of your channel to watch you guys zooming about. Thus, everyone learns and we all have fun. That's a win win you guys. Fingers crossed for this one. Let's hope it's the right one for you guys, hope you nail it.

@johnward8755 3 месяца назад

Thanks for the update. I think you’ll be happy with a performance cat. Regarding your earlier video, sailing full speed 6000+ miles to a hard deadline isn’t typical cruising. We sailed to Mallorca yesterday upwind for 120 miles on our Outremer 45 no problem. On many cats we would have had to motor. Love the boat! I can mostly single hand it when my wife is sleeping. And it’s easy enough to take an extra reef if you want to slow down and relax.

@TheOKellys 3 месяца назад

What sort of winds and seas did you see on your 120 mile upwind trip?

@johnward8755 3 месяца назад

@@TheOKellys we started close hauled in light wind at TWA 50. As the wind and seas built we gradually fell off to TWA 60 and took two reefs. We kept close to the wind nearly the entire way. The weight distribution and narrow bows help keep the ride smoother upwind. Some other cats I’ve sailed hobby horse badly due to excessive weight in the bows or slow way down due to big windage, or slide sideways instead of moving forward, or get a lot of bridgedeck slamming. We love that our Outremer lets us sail more and motor less.

Another great video, very helpful with where I am at in my life too. I too feel like if I go back to living in a house (I live in my truck camper, mostly camping in nature), I'd get to that place where I've done everything and am ready to go elsewhere. But with that, how do you see it in 10, 20 or 30 years ? It's hard to picture it into old age. For aluminum, my camper has an aluminum roof and one issue is that it accumulates sun heat and by evening, the entire structure heats up so much that it stays warm through the night. So I am curious to see how Delos solve that, if they put a special paint to reflect sunheat.

Hey guys. Greet to see you are doing well. Something struck me from the video. First I remember Nick mentioning the desire to bike accross Europe. And then in this video Megan mentioned “we are 50, we have time.” If biking across Europe is really a thing you both want to do, it’s something you should do when you are still young enough to do it somewhat comfortably. I know you got salt in the veins. But now is the time for that “side adventure” Just know, I would totally watch the shit out of it. Not just for the adventure, but you “hosting” that adventure. I’ll continue to watch whatever you do. But if it’s one thing I learned from watching you guys, it’s to follow where you dreams/desires take you. Just my 2 cents. Dig you guys.

My wish is to build my own because the cost will be 50% of a production boat, the timeline would be about the same (2-3yrs.) construction versus waiting "take a number" and most importantly going and running across all the wonderful people whose channels I have watched for years. The whole thing is experimental and the ONLY way to test it is to BUILD it ! Otherwise, given your resourcefulness, I wonder how far along you would be if you had started building your own over a year ago. Just a thought
