  • Our ballooner, it was on its last days.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Previously, on Delos we did some epic scuba diving

  • and had a muddy adventure on the back roads of Madagascar.

  • Oh, yay.

  • Well, we're about ready to head North.

  • So we're going do a little last minute provision here

  • for maybe a week to 10 days.

  • Cool.

  • So I've made a little list, and we're

  • going to head into the local market to get some veggies.

  • And then we'll head to the store and get a few more things.

  • So-- but I guess, here are shopping bags.

  • Nice.

  • It's usually a pretty fun--

  • Experience.

  • --experience.

  • Awesome.

  • All right, let's do this.

  • Delos and crew had a pretty epic spot

  • on the Western side of Aisle Summary in Madagascar.

  • We had nice, protected anchorage and plenty

  • of incredible beaches to choose from.

  • We were hanging out around Lemer Beach.

  • It's probably not what it's called,

  • but it made sense to us.

  • [LAUGHTER]

  • Our crew contest winners Greg and Chyanne

  • have arrived just a few days before,

  • and they were fitting right in.

  • Spray area.

  • There you go.

  • No, no, no, no, no.

  • Get out of there.

  • But now it's time to make tracks and sale back around the north

  • cape of Madagascar over to the west side of the island.

  • It would probably be a week or so trip.

  • So we're off on a mission for fresh veggies.

  • What kind did you go with.

  • From [INAUDIBLE].

  • I have no idea what it is, but we're

  • going to get half a kilo of it.

  • It looks good.

  • OK, so that was a success in the store.

  • Now it's veggie time.

  • Veggie time.

  • OK, so we're going to get our eggs here.

  • OK.

  • So basically, what we'll do is just lay the egg containers up

  • over there.

  • And then you'll just pick out the good ones

  • and fill them up one by one.

  • [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

  • And we'll get some beans.

  • So--

  • [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

  • It's a little bit different than the supermarket, huh?

  • It's better.

  • It's all organic, just stuff grown out

  • in the farms where you're riding around, right?

  • Yeah.

  • 31,500 500, so not so much.

  • Basically, look at stuff you'd like to eat, and then buy it.

  • Everything's going to be good.

  • He has the best, the best tomatoes.

  • Look at these, beautiful, huh?

  • Yes.

  • We don't know what this is.

  • How much?

  • And it's.

  • We don't know how much it costs, but we're going to try it.

  • It might be a guava or a something.

  • But now she's taking Brian's money,

  • and we don't know how much it costs.

  • All right, what have you got?

  • I don't know.

  • I see a little fruit here.

  • How does it taste?

  • There's a pit.

  • It's good.

  • Is it sour?

  • I don't remember the name of these.

  • But do you like them?

  • Mm-hm.

  • Yeah?

  • But they're good.

  • They are good.

  • Look at those.

  • Those are good strawberries.

  • [NON-ENGLISH SPEECH]

  • So that's a good deal, right?

  • Yeah.

  • How was your first Madagascar shopping experience?

  • I think it went pretty well, actually.

  • It was very fun to try and figure out what things were,

  • and what was good, and who had the best.

  • And it's like a farmer's market, but better.

  • Good Madagascar store.

  • That was awesome.

  • Yes.

  • It's interesting to see all the meats everywhere.

  • Yeah.

  • Yes.

  • And we tried some fruit that we have no idea what it is.

  • But it's very good.

  • So good, very good.

  • Cool.

  • Hello, Bio.

  • Hello.

  • Today's the day, Brother.

  • We're going to Nosey Bay.

  • Nosey Bay bound.

  • So we've got a 400-mile sail.

  • It should be pretty sweet, all down wind.

  • But the boat's been super slow.

  • I think we're losing between a knot and a knot and half

  • because we haven't cleaned the bottom in a while.

  • So I think it's pretty dirty.

  • So we just got to go down and scrub some stuff off,

  • make us fast again.

  • I'm going to pull up the hook and head North.

  • Downwind, for the Cape, [NON-ENGLISH].

  • So everybody else is down under cleaning

  • the boat, which is actually pretty interesting because you

  • can hear it.

  • I'm in the kitchen looking after Kimo's bread, which

  • smells amazing.

  • And I'm not helping because I still

  • have nasty poison ivy that has been popping open

  • this morning, which is really gross.

  • How is it going, Chyanne

  • We are itchy today.

  • So stay on the boat, or whatever happened?

  • Chyanne has her first poison ivy.

  • It looks pretty--

  • Is gnarly.

  • --gnarly.

  • Yep.

  • And then we have this one.

  • Ew.

  • This one's gross too.

  • Oh, wait, all day, oh.

  • Yeah, good So we're going to try some baking soda, some water,

  • and some crushed up spirulina, and see if it dries it out.

  • How is it down there?

  • Starting to look good.

  • Yeah.

  • It's a clean lady now.

  • Clean?

  • Clean.

  • We'll have 10 to 15 knots out of the Southeast.

  • And then as we go up the coast here to round the Cape,

  • we'll be around the Cape around Friday, probably 2:00,

  • 3:00 in the morning.

  • And it's looking like anywhere from 20 to 25.

  • Some of the forecasts show it's a bit stronger into the 35's.

  • And we've done this trip before last year.

  • We were coming in this way.

  • So we know around here the wind basically

  • comes out of the Southeast, hits the coast of Madagascar,

  • and just shoots up North.

  • So you get really strong presence on this coast.

  • But we'll be going with it, which will be really good.

  • And then if we check out the currents around here,

  • they're going to be with us the whole ride as we come up

  • the coast of Madagascar.

  • Of course, we saw last year the same thing.

  • They were super strong right here.

  • But we'll have wind and current with us,

  • and blast around 400 miles.

  • Get it done in--

  • 24 hours.

  • --24 hours.

  • Super speed.

  • Super speed Delos.

  • Are you ready for a little sailing trip around the corner

  • of Madagascar?

  • Yes.

  • Yes.

  • A little bit seasick.

  • A little bit seasick the first time.

  • You'll be OK though.

  • We've taken some pills.

  • So I'll either be throwing up or passing out.

  • So we'll find out.

  • It looks like a great sail.

  • Yes.

  • All right, it's time to go.

  • Now for getting the anchor up.

  • We're going to head that way.

  • Going to tell us the game plan, Brady?

  • Well, the wind is perfect as we expected

  • coming straight from behind us.

  • So we're going to put this poll out.

  • We'll switch the genoa over to the port side.

  • And then we can put our [? genicer, ?]

  • which is like a lighter version of that, on the starboard side,

  • on the other pole.

  • And it's really cool because [INAUDIBLE]

  • are one of the few boats that have duel downwind poles.

  • So we can set both sails and just straight up the ass.

  • What?

  • Two poles in [INAUDIBLE].

  • Two poles--

  • Sounds interesting.

  • So once the boat rocks before it, give it a push.

  • What can you see with your evil eyes, Camilla?

  • I'm not sure I want to say anything just yet.

  • I've gone from it being a massive whale.

  • But now I think it's' a fish of some kind.

  • But it's long, and so thin, and has a pretty thick--

  • there it is again.

  • It has a pretty thin-- it looks just

  • like a team of [INAUDIBLE].

  • Really?

  • Very strange.

  • There.

  • Yeah.

  • I did a massive [INAUDIBLE].

  • It that's a sail fish, it's over 20 tons.

  • Yeah.It's a whale.

  • Oh, out there.

  • Oh, yeah.

  • How are you feeling?

  • Great?

  • What's that?

  • Very cool.

  • How do you feel?

  • Very cool.

  • Very cool.

  • This sail make me happy.

  • It's all so colorful.

  • And it's a good one.

  • It's nice.

  • Good sailing.

  • So it's almost 9 o' clock, and I've had a pretty good watch.

  • It's a little bit-- it is a little big rolly.

  • The boat is like, moving in a confined space

  • because we don't have that much wind.

  • I think we're doing pretty good for now.

  • It's a beautiful light.

  • Cool.

  • Yeah.

  • It's about 5:30 in the morning.

  • The sun's just coming up.

  • And it's an all right night.

  • It's a little bit roly poly.

  • There wasn't a whole lot of wind.

  • And so the boat's just going like this.

  • And the sails are going, [IMITATES SAILS],

  • which makes a lot of noise.

  • And I don't really sleep very good

  • when the boat's doing that.

  • But we're averaging between five and six knots, which is OK.

  • And I think today will be a pretty nice day of sailing,

  • at least we hope.

  • So how are you feeling today, Chyanne?

  • Good?

  • Yes.

  • We had some red butts, and cheese, and marmalade.

  • Nice.

  • And the seasickness pills are working.

  • So--

  • Did you sleep anything?

  • A little bit, a little sleep.

  • It was your first night at sea though, right?

  • Uh-huh.

  • Yeah, which is crazy.

  • Yes.

  • We have something on the fishing line,

  • and I am not extremely sure how to pull it in.

  • I tried to pull it in, but it's slipping.

  • Do you want [INAUDIBLE]?

  • Yes.

  • [LAUGHTER]

  • Get it.

  • Wow.

  • You see the color disappearing?

  • Yeah.

  • As it dies, yeah.

  • OK.

  • We got a mahi.

  • Good morning, Brian.

  • I feel so bad, man, every time we get one of these.

  • But they're so good.

  • I guess I know what I'm cooking today.

  • Yeah.

  • I haven't quartered fish in a while.

  • Yeah.

  • It's been a while, and this is a nice one too.

  • But mahis aren't too bad to fillet.

  • The meat comes off pretty easy.

  • Look at that.

  • Beautiful fillet of [? bahi. ?] I think that's

  • what we'll have for lunch.

  • Yeah.

  • We'll probably have enough for lunch and dinner, maybe

  • one more meal too.

  • So we got a nice, big bag of fillets.

  • Beautiful.

  • It will at least be three meals, I

  • think for sure, for six people.

  • That's incredible.

  • Yeah.

  • We caught a mahi while I was sleeping.

  • Yes, Brian.

  • So this delicious mahi mahi--

  • all right, back here sweating in the kitchen after an hour,

  • I've cooked raw, chopped up, raw potato, and some salad,

  • and now I'm going to check the fish.

  • Voila.

  • Oh, perfect.

  • Yep.

  • It's sweaty, but it's done.

  • Oh, man.

  • That looks good, partner.

  • What have you got in there?

  • We have a salad, assorted salad with garlic.

  • We have raw fried potato, Swedish style,

  • and fried mahi mahi.

  • Freshly caught.

  • Lunch is ready.

  • Oh.

  • Thank you.

  • It's the best fish.

  • So fresh.

  • Yep.

  • It's already gone.

  • Thank you guys.

  • Yeah it's amazing.

  • Thank you, fishy.

  • The wind picked up, and we having a hell of a sale.

  • Delos was just cruising along doing her thing.

  • All was well in our little world.

  • Then all of a sudden, we heard a loud rip and the slapping

  • of sheets on the hold.

  • Our ballooner.

  • It was on it's last days.

  • Not surprised.

  • Oh, man, we should have known better.

  • Yeah, well--

  • This thing's like--

  • I don't know-- it's 15 years old.

  • I don't know how many tens--

  • It had a good last day.

  • --of thousands of sea miles it has on it.

  • I think it's time for a new one.

  • Yeah.

  • My favorite sea.

  • It's a bad one too, like really bad, like all the way.

  • We've fixed the whole bottom.

  • I've probably sewn it about six times over the years.

  • But I think this has--

  • This might do it in.

  • This might be my last.

  • I don't know if I can do that one.

  • I ain't stitching that up.

  • That's a lot of stitching.

  • At least we got a full day of sailing out of that.

  • It had a last good run.

  • It had a solid fucking eight hours

  • of what it was born to do.

  • Eight hours.

  • So it's our second night out at the sea.

  • We're doing pretty well.

  • We had quite a bit of wind, a lot more than yesterday.

  • We have around 30 knots we're reaching, I think.

  • We're doing really well speedwise.

  • I think on my watch we've been reaching around nine knots

  • and seen everything from--

  • it's at 12 right now-- and so anything from seven to 12,

  • really.

  • We're quite close to the coast, which you can see on the radar.

  • And yeah, wind's been a little bit more than we'd like,

  • actually.

  • The autopilot is having quite a rough time handling it.

  • But it's doing pretty well so far.

  • We took in a lot of sail.

  • We've got a fish on.

  • Oh, yeah.

  • That's pretty stretched, isn't it, on port side?

  • Yeah.

  • There's something on there.

  • It's a tuna.

  • Yeah.

  • Oh, shit.

  • Look at that.

  • Beautiful.

  • It's a beautiful tuna, beautiful tuna.

  • Fatty.

  • Oh, that's a yellow fin.

  • Nice and healthy.

  • No, it's not a yellow fin.

  • Nope.

  • It might be a big eye.

  • It might be a big eye.

  • It looks like a big eye, huh?

  • That is beautiful.

  • Yeah.

  • Here you go.

  • Yeah.

  • It's a big one--

  • [INTERPOSING VOICES]

  • One shot.

  • Here on the top.

  • [INAUDIBLE] to give it away, all those lines

  • with the dots and stripes.

  • So I think it's a big eye.

  • But we could--

  • I think maybe you're right.

  • --we could compare.

  • It's midnight now.

  • We're about 70 miles from the top of the Cape,

  • and the conditions are getting pretty rough, big waves.

  • Wind is gusting, 35, 40 true.

  • But it is directly behind us.

  • But it's pretty intense to hear these massive waves just coming

  • at you.

  • And you can't see.

  • It's pitch black.

  • There's no moon.

  • And all of a sudden, this massive wave

  • will come and pick up the stern, and you'll just

  • launch down the face of it.

  • A lot of respect for the ocean in this part of the world,

  • for sure.

  • That wind speed has just been crawling up.

  • And, of course, our speed over ground, flying along.

  • So it we switch the pole to starboard,

  • put it on the other side, I think

  • it will handle it a little bit better.

  • OK, we'll strap the head sail out,

  • it's still doing nine, 10 knots.

  • Yeah.

  • Well, once you start putting more sail out,

  • it makes no difference, although I did see 15.1.

  • I don't know why this cape is such a gnarly cape, this one.

  • The weather says it should be nice, 20, 25.

  • Of course, it's not.

  • Good morning, sunrise.

  • And I'm tired.

  • I don't know what the deal is.

  • But I'm exhausted.

  • I think the weather, a little rough last night.

  • I didn't really sleep much.

  • I had to change some sales.

  • But the good news is, look where we are.

  • So we're only 20 miles away from the Cape.

  • And after we make that little turn there,

  • I think we're going to find a sweet little place

  • to anchor in here and get a little bit of rest.

  • Hello.

  • Good morning.

  • Are you as tired as me?

  • Oh.

  • You look fresher than I feel.

  • Yeah.

  • I slept for an hour just now.

  • How are you?

  • Sleepy and harnessed in.

  • I was wondering.

  • You're all clipped in.

  • Are you planning on going out on deck or what?

  • Never know.

  • So we should be there.

  • We're going 10 knots.

  • So we should be there in a little over an hour, an hour

  • and a half.

  • It feels good.

  • It's weird to think that we crossed last year

  • in very different conditions.

  • And we now-- it was a pretty rough night.

  • But it's nice now, and I can even have the autopilot

  • on without it screaming at me.

  • So it feels really cool.

  • And yeah, I'm really excited to have sushi today.

  • It will be cool to add china, some fruit.

  • Good.

  • I love sushi.

  • It's one of my downfall.

  • I know I shouldn't like sushi probably.

  • But it's so good.

  • What is that?

  • That's gnarly.

  • Look at that drum.

  • Anyways, so hopefully we can turn pretty soon

  • so we don't get too much on beam.

  • But we need to take a pole down and stuff.

  • So the way you say it, I'm pretty rigged.

  • You can really feel the energy of the current

  • and the wind around this cape here.

  • It's quite beautiful though.

  • It's impressive.

  • Good morning.

  • I can sleep in two hours.

  • Two hours is good.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Awesome!

  • Wow.

  • That was a good one too.

  • That was a good high five.

  • Made it out of the gate.

  • Here you go.

  • Looks like this chart is off a little bit

  • because, as you can see, we're about to run right

  • through the land.

  • At front, it looks like we're going through the channel.

  • [INAUDIBLE]

  • And that's why you enter in the day,

  • and you look with your eyes these things.

  • Yeah, eyes are number one.

  • Eyes are good ones.

  • We have arrived.

  • Whoo.

  • It's chill.

  • I don't think there's anybody here except us.

  • You guys want to check out this little cove here?

  • Yeah.

  • OK.

  • The beautiful tuna.

  • See how that shimmers?

  • It's nice and pink?

  • [WHISTLES]

  • So what's going on here?

  • We are making sushi.

  • Sushi.

  • You

  • Sushi nights.

  • Sushi nights.

  • We have cut vegetables and a huge avocado.

  • That is a massive avocado.

  • I know.

  • It's only a half of a half too, which seems really crazy.

  • And then Gregory's making--

  • He's learning.

  • Gregory's making rice.

  • He's doing really well today, mahi pacas, and then sushi.

  • You're advancing fast, man.

  • We're trying.

  • What are you guys doing outside?

  • You've got some liquor coming up.

  • What?

  • It's a very productive night on Delos.

  • This upstairs project?

  • It's flowing.

  • Is it?

  • It's flowing, baby.

  • It's flowing.

  • Oh.

  • Let's see this bread, guys.

  • Yep, very good.

  • Nice work.

  • Cutting up the fish, huh?

  • Look at that burrito.

  • Oh.

  • Do you want this part?

  • So then turn it and grab, so one big motion.

  • Yep.

  • Look at that.

  • Probably not going to be sushi chef of the year any time soon.

  • Yes, he is.

  • And now we cut it.

  • What have you got over here?

  • You just got rice and sushis.

  • It's to be stoned.

  • I mostly like the fish and the rice.

  • So I just made a little fish and rice.

  • It's a tradition here.

  • Nice.

  • Ah, yeah.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • Up next, we arrive at the beautiful island of Nosy Hara,

  • and explore this paradise for the second time.

  • OK, sweet.

  • I was thinking of morning.

  • That's a wrap.

  • [MUSIC PLAYING]

  • You like it?

  • I like it a lot.

  • I can't even tell which one's which.

  • Huh?

  • When you're standing like that.

  • Look.

  • The two Swede's.

  • What's inside there?

  • We got some salt, and some--

  • Sugar.

  • --sugar--

  • Sugar?

  • --and some of the jasmine juice.

  • No.

  • Jasmine.

  • Jasmine juice.

  • Gross.

  • Let's go with jasmine juice.

  • Joke of the day.

  • What kind of milk--

  • oh, no.

  • What kind of bees make milk?

  • Boobies.

Our ballooner, it was on its last days.
