There's no playbook that we're following, and while we've put tons of time and research into designing all our systems, you can't fight reality. Just because everything "should" work doesn't mean it will. And in this week's episode we hit one of our first snags in our propulsion system. We've been getting a lot of questions around the complexity of some of our systems, and I think this is a great example of what that looks like in reality. We actually love this process, and we enjoy the challenge and the problem solving. We're trying to pull off some pretty ambitious stuff, and when it works, there's no greater feeling. And when it doesn't work, well that just means it's time to try something different. The build is definitely more about the journey than the destination, and obstacles like this are what's gonna help us build an even better boat than we could have imagined! We hope you enjoy this one, and definitely let us know what you think in the comments below. Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/b1p18nIhSvk

Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/YxMaVSgLWhs Today is a BIG day for our future floating home. The corian countertops are going in and it's going to change the look and feel of the boat COMPLETELY. Not just in the galley, but in the heads and cabins too. These are the kinds of finishing details that make such a big impact, taking it from construction site into a proper home. But as exciting as it is, there's also a lot on the line here. It's been months of planning, measuring, and making thousands of tiny decisions....and now all those decisions are about to come to fruition, and we're about to find out if the pieces of the puzzle will actually fit together, or if it's time to go back to the drawing board. Let us know what you think of the final look! Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/YxMaVSgLWhs

Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/LvXPStIEjgQ Today we make the grand reveal of (🎵 dun dun dunnnnn 🎵) THE KILL SWITCH ☠️. It's something that can come in real handy in an emergency situation, but also for different troubleshooting or maintenance scenarios. And while most boats (including Delos 1) have a switch down by the batteries, we have opted for the doomsday style light up switch right on the helm station because we like to keep things extra around here 😂 We also introduce a project that I am personally soooo giddy about, which is a control and monitoring system for our electric motors that will eventually allow us to turn Delos 2 into a giant remote controlled boat (again, we like to keep things extra around here 😂). So many fun projects coming together in this one, we hope you enjoy! Watch the full episode here: https://youtu.be/LvXPStIEjgQ
