The crew of the 53-foot Amel Super Maramu SV Delos evaluates the vessel’s design features after 80,000 nautical miles of global cruising to establish criteria for a future expedition yacht.Watch Key structural advantages include watertight bulkheads, a skeg-mounted rudder that protects against underwater impacts, and extensive bilge storage capacity.20:07 The crew praises the ketch sail plan for its manageability in heavy weather and the reliability of the furling mainsail.7:48 Conversely, the boat suffers from significant condensation and mold in cold climates due to lack of insulation, and the aft overhang design creates loud, jarring impacts from swell and wakes.17:07 The cockpit lacks adequate protection from tropical rain, and the deep 2.1-meter draft limits access to shallow anchorages.22:00 The crew also identifies the "death rolls" in unprotected anchorages as a major drawback of the monohull design, noting that the boat’s deep, cave-like interior lacks natural light and connection to the surroundings.11:47 Future design priorities include a shallower draft, improved insulation, and a more protected helm.10:09
