The Meta Dalu 47 is a robust, aluminum expedition yacht designed by the esteemed naval architecture firm Joubert-Nivelt and built by Chantier Naval META. Built using the shipyard's proprietary "Strongall" construction method, the Dalu 47 is engineered for high-latitude exploration and long-distance blue-water cruising. The Strongall process, patented by Meta in 1977, utilizes thick aluminum plating—often exceeding 10mm to 12mm—which allows the hull to be self-supporting without the dense internal framework of ribs and stringers found in traditional builds. This results in a hull of immense structural integrity and impact resistance, often described as nearly "bulletproof" by the offshore community. Typically configured as a dériveur intégral (full lifting keel), the vessel is designed to navigate shallow estuaries and remain stable when dried out on a beach, a hallmark of French expedition design.
