Nobiskrug specializes in the construction of made-to-measure custom-built superyachts from 60 to 200+ metres. After launching TATOOSH, the yard went on to build some of the most ground-breaking yachts in the global fleet.
Known for pushing the boundaries and for not being a mass builder, every superyacht built by Nobiskrug is absolutely unique and embodies the individual vision of the owner, combined with innovative ideas and advanced technology.

“
HER FIVE DECKS SOAR INTO THE SKY...
...her length is 92.40m and her beam is 14.95m. When she was launched in Rendsburg in 2000 to conquer the world’s oceans, TATOOSH was ranked at number twelve of the world’s largest yachts."

Naval Architecture
Claus Kusch
Claus Kusch was more than a Naval Architect. Unlike most naval architects, Claus would design a yacht from the initial concept including the naval architecture and exterior styling and then find the best yard to build her before he partnered with the Peters Werft Shipyard in Wewelsfleth, Germany, near Hamburg to build on his own account.
Claus would manage the construction from beginning to launch and for the warranty period thereafter. Yachts designed, built and supervised by Claus Kusch were literally tailored-made-in Germany.
“The yacht's architecture and form develop progressively and conceptually around the functional needs of the guests and crew”.
Claus Kusch
Such a major project bursting with innovative ideas required an interior designer up to the task. Terence Disdale was an inspired choice. Trained at Jon Bannenberg’s studio, Disdale’s design balances contemporary elegance with relaxed comfort – beach house not penthouse, as he likes to put it - as well as an intelligent approach to the use of space. Ask any yacht designer what the secret of a great interior is. Almost all will agree that it comes down to how the space is planned.

With Achille Associates
Planning space depends on how you intend to use it. TATOOSH was one of the first yachts built for more than just vacationing. Communications technology had opened amazing new lifestyle possibilities. No one understood this better than the original owner. Work, travel, exploration, fun, entertainment, relaxation and fitness - TATOOSH was built to encompass them all.
“Superyacht designs are created from the inside out. Form follows function, practicality is combined with elegance”.
Terry Disdale

TATOOSH? It has a world of meaning…
Named after the island in the Makah Indian territory at the entrance to the Straits of Juan de Fuca in America’s Pacific North West, TATOOSH Island is on the Indian spiritual route to Alaska. It shares its name with TATOOSH, the Thunderbird whose feathers are as long as a canoe paddle. When TATOOSH flaps its wings, it makes thunder and great winds. When it opens and shuts its eyes, it makes lightning.
