The design process for a 53-foot aluminum expeditionary catamaran, dubbed Delos 2.0, focuses on optimizing the layout for long-term cruising.0:23 Key modifications to the initial design include extending the aft cockpit roof to provide full weather protection, which also creates a reinforced platform for solar panels, a mainsheet traveler, and a dinghy lifting point.3:40 The interior layout features a dual-cabin arrangement with a galley modeled after the functional design on the crew's current vessel.11:13 Additional structural changes include widening the roof to improve rain runoff and installing a watertight bulkhead door for bow locker access.8:32 Separately, the crew refinished their aluminum dinghy, Maggie, to address heat retention and previous paint failure.13:01 The process involved sanding the 12-year-old aluminum hull, applying an etching solution to remove oxidation, priming the surface, and coating it with Total Boat Deck Tread paint.14:44 Proper surface preparation and etching are essential for ensuring paint adhesion on oxidized aluminum surfaces.16:11
