Ahoy Patrons, here's an episode that many of you have probably been expecting. We got SO MUCH love and support from you all during this time, it was just unbelievable. Thanks again to everyone for all your kind words and healing vibes.

This was a pretty scary time for us. We've had a few other sketchy situations over the years, but this one really hit home and made us realize how vulnerable we really are when we're off the grid. In this case we were about ten hours of travel away from medical care...but we've often been much further away from civilization like an ocean crossing for example. So as stressful as it was, looking back on it we felt so lucky that we were able to get the help we needed. And since many of you are current or future cruisers, we just wanted to also take this time to encourage you to make sure you have a thorough and well organized medical kit on board, and that you know what you have and how to use it. This is our go to resource that we keep on board, we highly recommend you pick up a copy or something similar. It's called Advanced First Aid Afloat and it focuses on how to handle almost any medical situation you might encounter at sea without access to help from a medical professional.

Here's a link to find it on Amazon:

We also made an episode all about our medical kit and what we keep on board:

And we have a post on our website with a rundown of the contents of our medical kit plus lots of other great info (just scroll down a little bit to "Offshore Medical Kit")

Anywho, in other news we made it back to Delos safe and sound! We're digging right into boat projects, recovering from jet lag, and of course enjoying a few cold ones with all our friends here that we've been missing so much while we were away. We will film a little video update for you all sometime soon and show you around all the boat yard activities :)

Lots of love and hugs from Mexico!

Brian, Kazza, & Sierra
