History
Nobiskrug's history began in 1905 when entrepreneur Otto Stork founded a small shipyard in Rendsburg, Germany, specializing in barges, pontoons, and sailing vessels. It wasn't until 95 years later that the company entered the luxury yacht sector, launching the 92-meter superyacht M/Y TATOOSH in 2000. This vessel was highly acclaimed by yacht experts and potential buyers alike.
The success of this first model enabled Nobiskrug to secure a multi-year order book, and growing demand for megayachts necessitated the expansion of their production facilities. This led to the construction of a 160-meter assembly hall capable of building two hulls simultaneously in a covered space. Notable launches that followed include the 73-meter M/Y SIREN, built for British billionaires David and Simon Reuben, the 68-meter M/Y TRIPLE SEVEN, and the 74-meter M/Y MOGAMBO, which was named "Best Motor Yacht of 2013" with a gross tonnage exceeding 1,300 GT.
In 2015, Nobiskrug, in collaboration with German Naval Yards Kiel, formed the German shipbuilding group GERMAN NAVAL YARDS and opened a representative office in Berlin. However, in 2021, the company’s assets were acquired by Flensburger-Schiffbau Gesellschaft mbH.
Throughout its history, Nobiskrug has built over 800 vessels of various types, including superyachts and megayachts.
