Inside Paul Allen’s Former Yacht on Sale for $90 Million
By Katie Schultz

The estate of the late Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen is offering the sale of his 303-foot-long superyacht , Tatoosh , for a cool $90 million, according to Dirt . If you’re thinking those stats aren’t impressive enough for the billionaire and tech magnate , well, you’d be right. Tatoosh , which is currently the 60th largest yacht worldwide, was just Allen’s secondary vessel. His main yacht, Octopus , sold last year for $325 million and stretches 414 feet long, making it the 20th largest yacht in the world.
As for Tatoosh , the recently-listed vessel was custom-built by German shipyard Nobiskrug in 2000 for fellow American tech mogul Craig McCaw before being bought by Allen the following year for an estimated $100 million. The craft was put up for sale shortly after Allen’s death in 2018, but was taken off the market for an extensive refitting that was completed last year.

Inside the vessel, 11 staterooms can accommodate up to 19 guests with access to a lengthy list of lavish amenities that includes a heated swimming pool with a hydraulic-powered mosaic floor that can raise and lower, a parquet floor salon complete with a limestone fireplace and a bar, a movie theater adorned in red velvet, a beauty salon, a gym, two helicopter pads, a sunbathing and diving area decked out with a blue-tiled spa, bulletproof windows, a fleet of jet skis, multiple 43-foot tenders, and a crew of 31 to oversee it all. The owner’s quarters include a private deck, two dressing rooms, and an observation lounge with a private galley, all spanning across two of the ship’s five decks, which are all accessible via elevator.

To maintain and staff the superyacht, which will be one of the largest yachts on display during the Monaco Yacht Show later this month, potential new owners will have to be prepared to pay $9 to $10 million per year in addition to the hefty price tag. Tatoosh is being represented by the Monaco-based yachting company Fraser.

A 303-foot luxury superyacht that formerly belonged to Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen is up for sale.
Before his death from cancer in 2018, Allen amassed an estimated fortune of $20.3 billion, according to Forbes Billionaires Index. The yacht is the latest part of his estate, which included multiple properties and two sports teams, to be sold-off.
Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen owned 2 pro sports teams before he died in 2018. Rumors are swirling about their fate — and now Nike's founder could pay $2 billion to own one of them.
Paul Allen's estate just off-loaded a chunk of the late Microsoft cofounder's massive real estate portfolio, selling 10 properties across the US for a combined $168 million
The yacht, named 'Tatoosh' is on sale for 90 million euros (around $91.3 million), following an extensive 11-month refit, according to Fraser Yachts, which is handling the sale.
According to the listing by Fraser Yachts, the "instantly recognizable" Tatoosh can sleep 19 passengers, and has space for 31 crew. It was custom-built by Nobiskrug for the American cellphone mogul Craig McCaw, who sold the boat to Allen in 2001.

"Tatoosh should feel gracious like a home and also cozy," McCaw told Boat International on September 8, about the process of designing the yacht.

The yacht has 10 individual staterooms, but McCaw also wanted to ensure that his family had their own private space while aboard, so decided to section off a separate owner's cabin, he told Boat International.
The apartment has two ensuite bedrooms, a lounge, its own pantry, a galley, and gym among other things, per Boat International.
"After two weeks, the crew and the owner need a little space from each other, so I wanted a galley where I could make some dinner," McCaw said.
However, the boat still has plenty of areas for socializing with guests, including a heated swimming pool on the main deck, as well as its own 'beach club' area, per the listing.
Guests can also enjoy a private cinema room, and an elevator with access to all five decks of the ship, per the listing.
The gym features weights, a treadmill, and other equipment.
There's also room for two helipads, as well as two tender boats called 'Chase' and 'Julia,' which can carry people to and from the yacht, according to Boat International.
The superyacht will be on display at the Monaco Yacht show between September 28 and October 30, per Fraser Yachts.
It's not the only yacht that belonged to Allen, who was a keen ocean explorer. Another boat, the 414-foot "Octopus," was sold to a mystery buyer in 2021, having been listed for $278 million.
Mystery buyer purchases $278 million superyacht once owned by Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen. It includes 13 guest suites, 2 submarines, and a pool that turns into a dance floor.

![who owns tatoosh yacht now Superyacht Tatoosh](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/1.-Lead-TATOOSH_001.-0C6A9503.jpg?w=1024)
When the words “famous explorer yacht” are strung together, Tatoosh is one name that comes to mind among yacht-watchers. The 303-foot expedition vessel, built by Nobiskrug in 2000, gained recognition thanks to its high-profile owners—American telecom executive Craig McCaw and Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen. Behind the big names, this gigayacht is more noteworthy for its capacity for adventure.
“ Tatoosh is more than a pretty yacht; she’s designed to venture around the world,” Capt. Laurent Delleur, who has been with the yacht since 2007, told Robb Report .
A roster of international designers had a hand in Tatoosh ’s design evolution, including German designer Claus Kusch for the distinctive exterior and British designer Terence Disdale on the original interior.
Following Allen’s death in 2018, the current owner bought Tatoosh in 2022 and embarked on a significant refit, which included an interior refresh, full upgrade of the AV/IT systems, and changes to the outdoor spaces. He also put it into Fraser Yachts charter fleet.
Beyond the tech, Tatoosh is one of the quietest yachts afloat thanks to twin DEUTZ-MWM 2,500 hp diesel engines with Visco Masse rubber mounts. The yacht has an impressive 7,000-nautical mile range when cruising at speeds of 12.5 knots. Its top speed is 16 knots.
Here are eight cool facts you didn’t know about one of the world’s most recognizable yachts.
The Boat Deck With Its Custom Tenders
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-Tenders.jpg?w=300)
As one of the original explorer yachts, toys feature big aboard Tatoosh . The dedicated “boat deck” has Davits worked into the exterior lines to hold a Germán Frers–designed 42-foot daysailer called Julia and a 42-foot classic Hinckley Talaria tender called Chase . “The main tenders don’t sit in garages like modern yachts, but on deck, as part of Tatoosh ’s signature,” says Delleur. “The sailing boat was custom made from carbon fiber and was unique with her canting keel. The yacht used to also accommodate two Hobie catamarans on the boat deck.”
The Pool Transitions to a Dance Floor
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-Use-Pool-shot-TATOOSH_003.-Main-Deck-at-With-Swiming-Pool-and-Lounging-Areas-0C6A4850.jpg?w=300)
It takes nearly 10,600 gallons of water to fill the 200-square-foot heated swimming pool on the main deck aft. A variable current allows guests to swim long distances. Come evening, the pool floor raises flush to the deck, transforming into a dance floor.
The Extended Beach Club
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-use-TATOOSH_042.-Beach-Club-With-Window-To-Swimming-Pool-0C6A4717.jpg?w=300)
Tatoosh boasts a whopping 3,229 gross tonnes of internal volume. Exterior designer Disdale pushed the yacht’s dimensions from the 292-foot length that was originally planned to its final 303 feet, mostly to make more room for the on-deck pool and beach club. It proved to be a good idea, paving the way for a dedicated dive lobby, a hot tub, a sauna, and a bar with sea views.
World Traveler
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-Tatoosh-GettyImages-157278313.jpg?w=300)
Tatoosh has a track record of global cruising, sometimes sailing up to 35,000 nautical miles a year. The ambitious cruising program has taken it into far-off lands, including Fernando de Noronha in Brazil, Namibia, and Zanzibar. The most remote location to date is a group of far-flung islands in the Indian Ocean, which Tatoosh visited during the 2000s. The yacht spent several weeks in the region, taking in Europa, Les Glorieuses, and the Aldabra Atoll, which rarely feature on even the most adventurous itinerary, as well as Madagascar, Tanzania, and Mozambique.
The Piano Lounge
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-Use-PIANO-LOUNGE-002.jpg?w=300)
Tatoosh’s interior can be closed off to create a twin-level private owner’s apartment that occupies the forward section of the yacht across two decks: The self-contained area includes the primary bedroom, owner’s office, gym, observation lounge with private galley, massage room, piano lounge (pictured) and two guest cabins. From the observation lounge, for example, views of Mt. Etna and Mt. Stromboli erupting by night have been enjoyed in privacy.
Two Helipads, Two Choppers For Exploration
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2Tatoo.jpg?w=300)
The yacht’s two heli-decks are a signature feature of Tatoosh ’s distinctive exterior, with the capacity to land a twin-turbine Airbus A145. They’ve largely been used for remote exploration in places like Africa. One of the helipads has a dedicated helicopter spares store, a helicopter refueling station, and an approved fire station—allowing the yacht to be used like a small heliport. The dual helicopter operations mean multiple groups of guests can be welcomed by air and flown ashore. Another use when the choppers are away: Candlelit dinners on the main helipad.
What’s in a Name
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.Tatoosh.jpg?w=300)
Tatoosh is named after the island near Paul Allen’s hometown of Seattle, but the 11 guest cabins are christened after some of the Pacific islands the yacht has frequently visited, including Lahaina in Hawaii and Maupiti and Bora Bora in French Polynesia.
Two Cinemas and Recording Studio
![who owns tatoosh yacht now](https://robbreport.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/2.-Use-this-oneTATOOSH_024.-Cinema-On-Main-Deck-0C6A6394-RT.jpg?w=300)
Tatoosh’ s previous owners kitted the yacht out with impressive onboard technology, including a state-of-the-art recording studio and two cinemas—one indoor, one outdoor. Even so, that technology was no match for Allen’s impressive onboard art collection. Under his stewardship, Tatoosh displayed original pieces, including a Van Gogh. Allen’s complete art anthology fetched $1.5 billion at auction in 2022.

Iconic 92m Nobiskrug Tatoosh rejoins the charter fleet
The 92.4-metre superyacht, Tatoosh has returned to the charter fleet with Fraser as central agency for charter. Still considered one of the most iconic vessels on the water more than 20 years after delivery, Tatoosh rejoins the charter market following an extensive 2021 refit and with a long list of amenities which includes a cinema, sauna and owner’s apartment among much else.
Delivered in 2000 by Nobiskrug , Tatoosh was originally commissioned to be a home away from home and one that could stick to an ambitious cruising programme, while offering a perfect environment for a family-orientated lifestyle. With this in mind, the yacht’s functionality is deeply ingrained in the design, resulting in an arrangement that would work for the owner’s young family and extensive time at sea.
Terence Disdale was soon brought into the project and tasked with creating a practical arrangement that would make the most of the vessel’s 3,229GT of internal volume. The result was a two-deck owner's apartment with access to an observation lounge and secluded lounge area, with total accommodation for 12 on board, across a staggering 11 cabins. There is complement for a crew of 31.
The styling itself – also the work of Disdale – was a painstaking and meticulous feat, with everything down to the last socket carefully considered. The result is rich, refined and welcoming rather than intimidating, an element that was hugely important for the original owner, and one that has carried through to create the ultimate charter vessel.
On board, there is a fine balance of texture throughout with intricate rattan work, Chippendale armchairs, elegant Georgian occasional tables, and lattice-fronted wardrobes. Her neutral colour palette also calls on the welcoming theme, along with natural wood grains and chenille fabric.
Alongside her elegant interior and vast deck space, the toy-box is another major point in the Tatoosh philosophy. An entire deck – christened “the boat deck” – lends itself to the theme and has davits worked into the exterior lines. Jet skis and paddleboards are also hidden on board for more fun on the water.
The main helipad is high up aft on the bridge deck and there is also an additional touch-and-go helipad on the deck above. The yacht also benefits from a heated contraflow swimming pool on the main deck which can be drained and raised to lie flush with the deck.
Tatoosh’s dive centre, located around the beach club, is also up there with the best, and features an industrial model Bauer compressor and a fill station that can refill four tanks simultaneously; there’s also a nitrox refilling station for deeper dives. The yacht’s ability to travel to the far reaches of the earth makes her a sublime choice for keen divers, and her rock-like stability also means that Tatoosh is quite comfortable taking divers off the beaten track.
Proof of this can be seen in her extensive cruising history with Africa, the Middle East, the Indian Ocean, the Far East and South East Asia all under her belt.
Now under Fraser management , Tatoosh is currently undergoing upgrades which will enable her to offer the ultimate charter experience.

TATOOSH yacht interior
The interior of TATOOSH was designed by Terence Disdale , responsible for designing more than 100 yachts in his extraordinary 40-year career.
Known for his originality and flamboyant personality, he designed the yacht to accommodate 20 guests including the owner’s suite that features a comfortable observation lounge with a private gallery and a large secluded deck.
His “beach house not penthouse” style is exhibited in the superyacht’s design which is complete with a heated swimming pool on the main deck, beach club, dive center, cinema, and elevator covering all decks.

Specifications
TATOOSH has a total of 92 meters (303 ft) with a beam of 14.95 meters, a draft measuring 5.16 meters, and a volume of 3,229 GT.
She has two Deutz engines that can power her at 19 knots top speed, an 18-knot cruising speed, and more than six thousand nautical miles range before needing to refuel again.
The TATOOSH yacht features an exterior design by Kusch Yachts and has a steel hull and aluminum superstructure.
With an overall length of 303 feet, it is listed as the 88th largest yacht in the world and equipped with stabilizers for a smoother cruise and two helicopter pads – one for the ship’s own helicopter and another for guests’ aircraft.
Being a superyacht, she carries a helicopter, a sailboat, several other boats, large tenders, and toys.

The TATOOSH yacht was built for the mobile phone magnate Craig McCaw but was purchased it in 2001 for a reported US $110 million.

However, the ship’s crew claim that the boat’s mooring position was “explicitly directed” by the local port authority and they were only following the instructions.

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez are taking Greece by land, sea and air.
An isle spy tells Page Six that the power couple has been seen on Mykonos, where helicopter pilot Sánchez was spotted taking a whirly-bird for a spin off the duo’s boat, which is filled with “toys,” y’know, like choppers.
Said the fellow traveler: “Jeff was seen coming from the city center in Chora ” — as the tony town is called by locals and in-the-know visitors — “and getting on and off his helicopter onto his smaller support boat.”

The couple was also photographed strolling through the streets of Mykonos hand-in-hand.
The source further said that, “Lauren has been seen flying a helicopter on and off their support boat, where they keep all their toys . . . helicopters, speed boats and other water toys.”
The source also told us that, “Jeff’s keeping the super big boat they live on, on the other side of the island where there is less wind.”

The source was referring to the couple’s famous $500 million superyacht , Koru, which they debuted last summer. Building of the mammoth vessel for the Amazon tycoon began in 2018.
Bezos also reportedly owns a “smaller” $75 million yacht, Abeona, which shadows his bigger boat . (One boat blog explained the concept: “In car terms, this is basically the same as buying a Porsche so you can drive to the garage where your Bugatti is parked.”)
The little ol’ support boat can accommodate 45, including 20 crew.

Bezos also owns a fleet of helicopters and private planes plus properties galore, of course.
Also on Mykonos as the summer heats up , we hear, is billionaire Jets owner Woody Johnson, who was spotted at fancy beach club Scorpios, after taking a tender from his own yacht.
Bezos and Sánchez have also been seen in Greece dining on the island of Hydra with Bezos’ son Preston.
