Been with you since near the beginning. I have been wondering when this was going happen, it sounds like the time is near. I am not a sailor, but I have some fabrication experience. I like the hull, I think you should absolutely take some formal classes and get certified as a welder. I would prefer TIG for this project. I think getting formal training in welding will get you a foundation on basic metallurgy, which will give you some confidence when you get rolling for real.
I bought a bunch of books and taught myself to stick weld as a kid, then took some local classes to learn MIG and TIG. The formal training helped, and I still learn over 40 years later.
Just my opinion, but I would think you and Kaza assisting a shop like you visited in building the hull would be the best route. Just ordering up the materials and buying the tools and going for it alone is a huge mountain to climb. You will learn quickly, but your family is gonna live on this boat, the tolerance for a bad weld here and there on a project like this is very, very low.
I am sure you are way ahead of me in this thinking, but wanted to share my thoughts.
I look forward to following your journey for many more years.

Gonna take all long time to build.

@svdelos why not do something like Sailing into Freedom has done? He's in Vietnam designing an alu catamaran too!

I don't see why he would give you the technology for free!!!??? You just have to pay for it! He is not a slave to you to give you super tech for free!!! It's absurd! Tomorrow you will sell his technology for all I know you! Do not agree in any case! Only for a fee and a legally protected license!!!

If I was a betting man I'd say perhaps we just had our first look at the new Delos II. Makes sense…their Delos 2.0 video was produced in 2018, it was a first in class boat (i.e. lots of build time) 6 years build time and meets almost all Brian's and Karins specifications. Hmmmm????

Does Dan have a site were he is documenting his build?? He is perfect for it.

I'm a welder this is one of my favorite videos yet, always dreamed of building a boat

I recently followed the building of this couple's new carbon fiber ship on their channel, hanging on every design choice and decision they made until they finally launched, and so every time I'd come back to see a new Delos episode I'd wish for you guys to also get a newer ship. Well … looks like I got my wish. I had no idea this was an ongoing project already in the works.
I actually didn't know you could make a boat out of aluminum metal, which because of my ignorance on the subject made my immediatly intuitively worry. I imagine there are diametrically different reasons for either preferring one over the other, but from my unknowledgeable perspective I would think a material with inherent buoyancy even if broken to bits, would be my preference. The one thought that comes to mind is that composites might be more flexible and tend more to bounce off a reef for example, while aluminum makes me think it would easily dent or crunch up. What I don't know is if it is a lot lighter or a lot heavier proportionate to the material's strength. Very curious to understand why boats are still built with such a wide range of material properties. Can you tell us why you choose aluminum and what are the differences with carbon fiber or fiberglass and metal, and what are the strengths aluminum has which make you prefer it over other materials?

A huge fan from the start but this…..Now way this will work i’m sorry – i would say 10 years in total including all the stress.
