Meet Artefact , a yacht ahead of its time. The exterior’s whimsical curves made this superyacht the toast of last week’s Monaco Yacht Show, but its universal appeal didn’t happen by coincidence.

The world’s largest 262-foot boat (by volume) was meticulously planned for years by her owner, an engineer, and build captain to be a cutting-edge, diesel-electric wunderkind. The futuristic façade and eco credentials have grabbed the headlines, but Artefact ’s interior is what may eventually reset the course for future yacht design.

“We didn’t rush into Artefact ,” Captain Aaron Clark told Robb Report, during an in-depth tour of the yacht last week in Monaco. “It’s the owner’s first boat, and will be his last boat. He didn’t want a yacht that looked the same as everybody else’s. And he didn’t want a yacht that performs the same. He wanted a boat that was future-proofed.”

By future-proofing, the owner reflected on the smallest details that would still be relevant two decades from now. No door thresholds and minimal steps for wheelchair access are just a few of the practical design features. Then there’s the Tai Chi room, with added ceiling height to be able to wield a sword above the head. Next came placing the owner’s cabin at the lowest acceleration point on the boat, so the ride would be comfortable. Finally, the owner decided to centralize all service operations to reduce the number of crew.

Clark and the owner spent 18 months developing Artefact before signing a contract together, and another year tank testing and investigating stabilization systems before looking for a shipyard.

“We spent eight months and $110,000 building the family deck level to scale, out of wood and Tyvek construction wrap,” said Clark. “It helped us to figure out how much room the owners need to comfortably live aboard and how big the boat needed to be.”

The answer was bigger, a lot bigger. The original 500-gross ton volume increased to a seismic 2,990 gross tons. “I went to seven shipyards with the plans,” says Clark, “But we ended up with Nobiskrug because they were the only yard who kept the pedigree and design that we wanted from the beginning.”

All the detailed planning paid off. During the build process, the change order was a paltry 1.1 percent—owner-mandated changes during most builds are typically 30 percent. Artefact was delivered in March 2020 to her owner, who plans to live aboard for up to three months at a time. During the pandemic, that increased to eight months, and the boat was not sitting idle in some marina. Artefact went on a mammoth 13,000-nautical mile, nine-month shakedown voyage.

“My favorite piece of technology is the boat’s dynamic positioning system,” says Clark, noting it keeps the boat in place without anchoring. “We used it for 650 hours in the first year, including two weeks non-stop. If the owner is sitting in direct sunshine, I turn the boat a bit. Other times, I change the view. In rough seas, we defuse the waves. It really enhances the guests’ overall experience.”

From the dock, Artefact stands out for her radical geometric shapes and massive windows. The exterior was designed by Gregory C. Marshall, featuring 8,073-square-feet of glass weighing 70 tons. In contrast, the Reymond Langton interior is a Zen-like, clean expanse of space.

Straight-grain, dark-walnut floors are paired with Taupe ripple fiddle-back sycamore walls. There are gorgeous details everywhere: Handwoven silk artwork hangs in the main salon, and Su embroidery defines the owner’s suite. Streamlined and uncluttered, the guest areas feel spacious, yet homey.

“The interior isn’t ostentatious and that’s because you can’t compete with the exterior architecture,” says Clark. “We didn’t try to fight it.”

The amount of onboard glass is a yachting first and didn’t come without challenges. The primary ones being weight, solar-heat gain, optical properties and reflections of sound.

Materials and space are used to absorb sound. In the owner’s suite, with a carpet that feels like crunchy snow underfoot, sound levels average just 36 dBA—somewhere between a whisper and hushed library—when under way. All the windows are made of two panels of bronze glass and one layer of mirror, which cuts heat without distorting views and “makes the greens pop,” according to Clark.

Much has been made of the owner’s request for Artefact to be environmentally advanced. It was the first superyacht to conform to IMO Tier-III emissions standards. It has 248 square feet of solar panels, creating enough electricity to run the lighting at night. But the advanced DC bus digital power management system—the first to be installed on a yacht—allows the vessel to fully integrate multiple sources of power from solar cells, variable-speed generators and lithium batteries.

That means the boat can operate for a limited time without internal combustion engines. It also has the potential to draw on future technologies, such as fuel cells.

“ Artefact is designed for the future. So, if we want to change an engine to a new technology, the system is in place with the DC bus to enable that,” says Clark.

For many superyacht owners, being identifiable on the water is something to be avoided at all costs. But not Artefact . “You can’t do something different and stay hidden,” says Clark. “If you’re going to set trends, you need to be recognizable. Not just technically, but with the owner experience as well.”

Since Artefact ‘s eco-credentials have been widely discussed, the conversation has moved to the interior and exterior. “We felt the styling might overwhelm the true core of what the boat was,” says Clark. “Now, we’re highlighting the design. I think that was a good strategy.”

Superyacht ARTEFACT: A real “arte factum”

NOBISKRUG’s Project 790 is one of the first yachts built under the new strict IMO Tier III emissions regulations. The name and visionary design of the 80-meter hybrid superyacht was unveiled at the Monaco Yacht Show 2018: MV ARTEFACT.

Less than a year away from completion, Nobiskrug’s new superyacht MV ARTEFACT will be one of the first yachts built under the new IMO Tier III low emissions regulations with an array of first-of-their-kind technology features and engineering advances that reflect the owner’s desire to create an experience as breathtaking as the seas it explores.

“From the beginning of the project, a primary focus of the owner was to minimize the environmental impact of the vessel using advanced technology. As a result, there are many unique and environmentally friendly aspects of both the operational and engineering design in this project,” said Captain Aaron T. Clark, who is acting as the owners representative. For example, the owner understood the significant efficiency, environmental and comfort advantages of Electric Pod propulsion using a DC bus system with both batteries and variable speed Diesel-Electric generators. Among the other significant efforts taken to protect the environment:

* The use of solar panels and a large battery storage system allows the vessel to operate for a limited time with no internal combustion engines operating.

* An electric pod propulsion combined with a dynamic positioning system can hold position without dropping anchor to protect sensitive sea floor. The owner believes ARTEFACT should make little to no impact on the seafloor.

* Waste water can be reused as technical water.

“Being involved from the early stages of the project, our in-house engineering team brought this innovative and technologically challeng-ing vessel design to reality while meeting all the owner’s expectations,” said Holger Kahl, managing director of Nobiskrug. “The composite superstructure and the extensive use of custom large and curved glass panels throughout is monumental, ensuring that the visual experience from the interior is uncompromised with minimal mulli-ons to obstruct the panorama. ARTEFACT is a perfect marriage of art and science through innovative architectural design and advanced engineering.”

For example, the quest for silent operation and maximum stability has been a driving force behind the concept for this vessel. In a major departure from convention, the Master stateroom is situated in the aft rather than the bow and all guest entertainment areas are situated in low-acceleration zones. Extensive hull development and testing have ensured that the vessel will ride comfortably.

In addition to environmental and advanced technology unprecedented in this class of vessel, the 80-meter superyacht’s distinctive exterior created by Gregory C. Marshall Studio features large architectural windows and noticeable design elements that create a distinctly remarkable profile. The composite superstructure and the special use of large custom and curved glass – the highest ratio of glass used to date in this size category – further differentiates this striking superyacht.

ARTEFACT has so much glass, and so many unusual windows, to ensure far better experiences while cruising.

Her exceptional interior was designed by the passionate and creative team at Reymond Langton Design - a studio that has been involved in the exterior styling and interior design of many award-winning superyachts.

The technical challenges behind ARTEFACT, with a steel hull and composite superstructure, are many. For instance, the above-mentioned glass totals 70 tons, according to Marshall. For another example, ABB developed the hybrid propulsion system that, while a first for yachting, is proven technology. It employs a DC bus and batteries, along with azipods and variable-speed Caterpillar 3516 gensets that are Tier III compliant. The hybrid system reduces sound, vibration, fuel consumption, and emissions, plus mimics Dynamic Positioning.

Nobiskrug Superyacht Artefact Captured on Maiden Voyage

The 80 metre hybrid superyacht Artefact has been captured on its maiden voyage to Gibraltar after departing German yard  Nobiskrug .

It comes after the yacht was delivered earlier this month after successfully completing sea trials.

The  Gregory C Marshall  designed superyacht hit the water at the yard's Rendsburg facility in July 2019 after 18 months in construction. At 2,990GT, Artefact is now the biggest-volume 80 metre superyacht in the world.

Artefact 's hull is built from steel while the superstructure is unusually built from GRP. This has allowed designers to pen a truly striking exterior, notable for its extensive use of glass.  Reymond Langton Design  is responsible for the interiors which remain under wraps.

A key feature of the design is the central section of floor-to-ceiling glasswork the yard calls "unprecedented". In total, 740 square metres of glass was used throughout, weighting almost 60 tonnes.

Marshall described the moment he presented the original 55 metre design to the owner and his family. "We thought there was absolutely no way we could talk anyone into building this boat. We were working with this family who thought this concept design was something that they might be interested in. When we first presented the idea they loved it they just wanted it bigger," he said.

Marshall increased the length of the yacht to 80 metres at the owner's request. "What didn't change was the purity of the design," he said.

Pascale Reymond, who designed the interiors, previously said: "The shape and size of the windows really became a springboard for us for some incredible design."

Artefact  includes a number of new technological and engineering features to minimise its environmental impact. These include the use of solar panels and a large battery storage system which allows the boat to operate without internal combustion engines for a limited time.

The boat is also fitted with Azipod propulsion and a dynamic positioning system, which can hold the boat's position without dropping anchor to protect the sea floor. The yacht can can also recycle waste water for use as technical water.

The yacht is among the first superyachts to meet IMO Tier III emissions regulations and features an innovative diesel-electric propulsion system developed with electric motor manufacturer ABB. The technology makes her up to 30% more efficient than other diesel yachts of her size.

Other projects currently under construction at Nobiskrug include 77 metre  Project Black Shark .

Nobiskrug launches 80m superyacht ARTEFACT

By Katia Damborsky   8 July 2019

The 80m/262ft superyacht ARTEFACT was launched by Nobiskrug in Northern Germany this morning, and is set to make her world debut at the 2019 Monaco Yacht Show .

Previously known as ‘Project 760’, ARTEFACT hit the waters for the first time this morning. 

The launch has been hotly anticipated, following the first stages of development in November 2016 and two and a half years of research and development by Nobiskrug prior to that.

The motor yacht is set to be on display at the Monaco Yacht Show 2019, where she will be making her world premiere. 

View this post on Instagram Changing the formula Known for pushing the boundaries and for not being a mass builder, @nobiskrugsuperyachts enters a new era in superyacht construction by building luxury yachts now that will last for generations to come. Every #superyacht built under NOBISKRUG brand embodies the unique vision of the owner combined with innovative ideas and advanced technology. 80m hybrid motor yacht Artefact launched #masterpiece #superyacht #artefact #design #vip #vvip #monaco #dubai #frenchriviera #yachtlifestyle #helicopter #nobiskrug #milionaire #billionaire #goals #gigayacht #amazing #yachtlife #stunning #yacht #boat #reymondlangtondesign #germany @reymond_langton_design #bespokeyachtconsultancy #travel #helipad #behnemar @superyachttimes A post shared by BEHNEMAR (@behnemaryachting) on Jul 8, 2019 at 1:09am PDT

The yacht’s distinctive exterior is the work of Gregory C. Marshall, while Reymond Langton Design has headed up the interior. 

This innovative look reflects a visionary owner, who wanted to ensure his yacht met specific criteria. These include environmental responsibility, technological innovation and luxury living for those on board.

Upon delivery, the 2,990 GT Artefact is set to become the highest-volume 80-metre superyacht on the water.

The owner wanted to ensure his yacht met specific criteria, including environmental responsibility and technological innovation.

As can be seen in photos, model images and renderings, Artefact boasts an excess of state-of-the-art glazing. Around 58 tonnes of glass has been used in total, and she is believed to have the highest ratio of glass to LOA for any yacht of her size class.

“We’re not afraid of pushing the envelope, but perhaps the biggest challenge with Artefact was that she’s a very high volume yacht with a fibreglass superstructure and tremendous amount of heavy glass,” Nobiskrug’s Managing Director, Holger Kahl, has said in the past. 

To achieve the cutting-edge exterior look that the owner desired, the yacht’s superstructure is made out of GRP instead of the more traditional aluminum. The choice was made to offset the added weight from the glass. 

ARTEFACT has a sophisticated hybrid propulsion system which makes her up to 30% more efficient in the water when compared to conventional diesel propulsion yachts in her size range. 

She was built to be compliant with the latest IMO Tier III NOx regulations, with a propulsion system which relies on generators and Lithium-ion batteries.

The hybrid system reduces sound, vibration, fuel burn and emissions and offers dynamic positioning capabilities. Dynamic positioning means a yacht can hold its position without dropping anchor, thus protecting the sea floor. 

In addition, ARTEFACT is provided with 6kW of auxiliary power, thanks to 23 square metres of solar panels on the sundeck.

“The set up allows us to run the yacht in a state of optimal efficiency and minimal wear and tear on the generators,” explains the yacht’s captain and owner’s representative, Aaron T. Clark. “Basically, we’re always conserving or redirecting energy, that’s the real advantage.”

While little is known about the interiors of the yacht, the layout departs from convention in pursuit of maximum stability and silent operations. The master stateroom is situated aft rather than forward, and all guest entertainment areas are located in low acceleration zones.

Captain Aaron T Clark added: “ARTEFACT is a unique vessel that marries cutting-edge engineering and striking architectural design to embody a tribute to the nuances of human experience which are often overlooked or ignored.

“Many traditional aspects of a superyacht GA’s have been challenged and reimagined in this design to create an unprecedented experience while minimizing the impact on fragile marine ecosystems.”

It is not known whether luxury yacht ARTEFACT will be available for private yacht charters .

ARTEFACT // Nobiskrug // 80m

Nobiskrug built the new 80m m/y artefact.

ARTEFACT is designed by Gregory C. Marshall (exterior) and Reymond Langton (interior). The yard talks about new standards with the use of glass on superyachts.

The owner of the yacht had a focus to maximize the environmental friendliness with hybrid propulsion that meets TIER III regulations that include ABB Azipods to use a dynamic positioning system instead of the classic anchor in areas with sensitive grounds. Moreover, the motor yacht has solar panels to recharge large battery banks and wastewater can be recycled.
