Patron's Only Update: After the FLIP + Walkthrough!

Hey hey Delos Tribe! Well the dust has finally settled after one heck of an AMAZING weekend with all of you! The BBQ meetup and flip event were sooo much fun (maybe even a little too much fun 😂) and now that we're settled back into our work schedule, we wanted to take you on a proper tour of Delos 2.0 now that she is right side up! It's SO wild how different it looks/feels from this perspective, you really get the sense of the layout now and she is REALLY looking like a boat! We hope you enjoy this one and are getting as excited as we are with how everything is coming together 🥳

Sending so much love and gratitude from Australia,

Brian, Kazza, & Sierra

VIDEOS OF FLIP?

I cannot wait for you guys to finish this! Really cool to see the nuts & bolts of everything inside of the ship.

noLieBowtie

What will you use to coat the chain locker area and the area where the chain feeds through? Just thinking about dissimilar metals in that area.

Coree

Looking good Brian,Kazza, Sierra looking forward to seeing Delos 2.0 come to life👍🇺🇲

Gary Suffern

Maybe we can make it for the splash party 😉

Gravytrain

That is going to be one sexy sexy sailing ship!!! ⛵️

Rusty Comer

I must say I am SO impressed with Sierra's videography skills! If that's her first outing with a camera, she will go far! Yayyy Sierra!

William Flower

Granted, I don't have the best hearing, but at the 9:02 mark, I thought you said you were standing in the (unintelligible to me) shower, and that section of hull between the frames doesn't look to have a window to me. Thanks for responding - I'm loving your new ride, guys.

Clark Robins

We’ll work on that for ya!

Sailing SV Delos

Nope there definitely is one in the head on both sides.

Sailing SV Delos

From the front, it looks like the deck of a container ship. :)

don clay

Very cool, guys. One thought: Unless I misunderstood, why no window (port light of whatever) in that Master Shower?

Clark Robins

The best part of the video is watching you both smile!!! 😃 Thanks for sharing!!!

Myra Slepoy

I want Brian’s jacket

George Deehan

Thank you for the teaser. Very interested to see which electric motor brand you are going to use. Since you said belt driven, I'm guessing Combi, but I'll wait for the propulsion vid to find out more.

William Houck

I’m currently researching options but right now an initial coating of Pyrotek T35 with 50-60 mm of closed cell foam pinned in place. Liners will be either light marine ply or thermo formed plastic wrapped in foam backed vinyl. But open to suggestions if you know some tricks!

Sailing SV Delos

Was a great flip party. First thing that blew me away seeing delos 2.0 up close was its sheer size when it was held vertically up. Thank you guys for sharing your first steps inside your future home with us too, it's so amazing to see and envision it.

Mike Green

We’ll look into that 😉

Sailing SV Delos

Gonna dedicate an entire video to it! Until then here’s a quick description: The propulsion system is based upon a Parallel Electric Hybrid drive. One hull contains a Nanni N4.80 diesel engine with a belt driven 25KW electric motor. The other hull will be purely electric with a 25KW electric motor. This configuration, along with a unique mechanical clutch will allow us to run under diesel power for long range, diesel power + electric power (hybrid arrangement), or pure electric power. In addition both electric motors can act as regeneration units to replenish the batteries under sail. The clutch system allows us to disengage the propellor shaft and run the diesel engine coupled to the electric motor as a giant DC generator at anchor!

She would float! Even though 100% of the welds arent finished she is sealed up pretty good on the hull plates.

Sailing SV Delos

We’ll probably do a 2 part epoxy in the bilge to protect from things (metal bits) accidentally dropping down there and the sides and top will be painted with a product called Pyrotek T35 which is pretty cool.

Sailing SV Delos

What an amazing aspect now. Thanks for hosting we loved meeting you guys and other fellow patrons. Excited for the next step.

Ali Todd

Looking great!

Tim Heslip

It was so amazing to see the inside skeleton of SVD II ! Thanks for the tour. : - )

Scott C. Wise

H u g e 😯😯😯you will need intercom…no more shouting at each other…you will not hear it📡📡📡

Jeanne H. Mathieu

She looks STRONG!

Michael Conway

In the after flip segment you briefly mention the coating of the water tanks. is their any kind of plans to spray any kind of coating to protect the inside of the vessels raw aluminum from saltwater. corrosion?

R. D. Lee

It is so good to see such great progress being made on the Delos 2.0

R. D. Lee

Looks beautiful, and very strong! Did you use a wide lens? It looks much longer than 52 ft inside! I think Brian is going to love the big engine rooms, and having a real workshop!

Mark Gumprecht

Shop sounds like it will be very useful.

Lance Daniels

Thanks for posting and sharing. Nice camera work Karin.

Lance Daniels

I'm wondering, would the hull, as it is now, float? Or are there welds that aren't complete on the lower section of the hull?

Scott C. Wise

It’s all mother nature’s sun and wind 😂💪🏼🌎 ⛵️

Andrea and Gisela

I found your Instagram page, and with it two videos of the FLIP !!! https://www.instagram.com/svdelos/

William Flower

A LOT of seam welding ahead! With that first look down the length of the hull I definitely got a '2001 Space Odyssey' vibe... it looks so cool!

William Flower

I want the details of your propulsion and power systems. So excited for you. This is truly going to be one of the best cruisers on the ocean that will push cruising into new directions.

William Houck

How can I get one of your jackets? They are very cool. Not as cool as Delos 2.0, but close! LOL!

Bill Dapp

Emily so nice to meet you … Papasvdelos@gmail.com

Michael Trautman

Star Trek vibes are off the hook. Make it so number one! ☝️ weird to be in summer river kayaks and seeing ya’ll in long sleeves.

Emily

What will you insulate the hull with and what will the wall covering be?

lowell mccormick

WOW! It's happening and so exciting. Congratulations!

Frank

My GOD Man1! Unbelievable. Are you sure this is not a CG-ed reality .... and you two are Avatars? It appears you have twice the storage space then DELOS has? The hulls are so long ..... (she said) that you may need wiring for intercoms. I was going to ask you to make a shop somewhere in the hull for yourself ....... you answered that question. You deserve it (ac?). You two looked way too happy on the ship ..... finally upright. What a vision you guys had here. THanks for taking us on this journey. Keep 'em flyin

Bonne Mike
