design-team
Our in-house team has extensive experience designing tenders and a deep understanding of the build process and ultimate usage requirements. The team includes metal work and glazing specialists, artistic renderers and electronics experts.
The 160m Blue, built by Lürssen, impresses for many reasons…
▪️ The yacht is one of the largest in the world to be equipped with diesel-electric power hybrid propulsion and she features PTI/PTO units that can be used for either electric propulsion (slow speeds) or for generating electrical energy to operate the vessel at higher speeds.
▪️ Blue also features an innovative after-treatment system and a wastewater treatment plan which is equipped with new membrane technology. This allows treated wastewater to be safely disposed of in "drinking water quality".
▪️ The interior and exterior of the 15,320GT superyacht were designed by Terence Disdale, making full use of the yacht`s 22.5 metre beam and generous decks.
▪️ AND SHE CARRIES TWO COMPASS LIMOUSINE TENDERS ABOARD!!!

Checking up on our little ‘kitten’ cat out in St Barths.
Styled by @schwalgien_design and built by Compass Tenders, this 12.3m catamaran tender won the @boatinternational Tender of the Year at the recent design awards.
Delivered over 12 months ago and she’s still purring like a panther.

Spotted! The 9m limousine tender we built for the 68m @abekingyachts ‘Soaring’.
This is one of two custom tenders we created for this superyacht, which follow the distinctive lines and styling of the mothership. The limousine has a top speed of 36 knots and transports up to 10 guests + 2 crew.
Soaring and her tenders were on display at @dibshow last week.

We are delighted to confirm that we’ve been commissioned for the design and build of an 11.2m catamaran tender for a new-build #superyacht project.
“This will be the fourth catamaran tender to be built by Compass. The larger ones that we’ve built have been extremely successful, and we expect the smaller models to be even more sought after. The multihull configuration offers versatility, stability, and the ability to facilitate day-long excursions away from the mothership. Typically ranging between 10 and 13 metres in length, they are luxury motor yachts in their own right." - Richard Faulkner, company founder and CEO.

With a hot and cold water supply, integrated refrigeration, custom cabinetry and Corian worktops, the galley setups aboard our tenders ensure on-the-go refreshments are close at hand for guests and crew. We’ve squeezed sinks into the smallest of spaces, and designed cup holders that’ll keep even the slimmest of Champagne flutes steady.
It’s all in the details.

The T/T Nebula, ‘Shadow Kitten’, designed by @schwalgien_design won “Tender of the year 2023” at the @boatinternational Design and Innovation Awards held in Cortina d´Ampezzo, Italy
Built by Compass Tenders, the passion and dedication of @schwalgien_design really made this project a success.
Team work is the core to designing and building winners of these awards. T/T Nebula is the best outcomes of this joint venture.
We are honoured to be a 2023 award winner.
Thank you to @boatinternational for hosting the awards and festival. Your team did a great job recognising the year’s best designs from across the superyacht industry.

Having the necessary amenities onboard when nature calls, can make all the difference to guest comfort and the day’s enjoyment.
We’ve become pretty adept at secreting fully integrated heads into even the smallest of spaces, concealing them within centre consoles, locating them forward of the helm, as well as your more typical facility within the interior cabin.
Installing an electric marine toilet, we ensure that the plumbing remains accessible and that the system is integrated to grey and black waste tanks with separate pump out systems. Extractor ventilation is fitted, along with Corian countertops, stainless steel taps, lighting, and it’s all enclosed behind an electric sliding, or lifting, door with locking controls.

This pair of 12.5m limousines were built by Compass Tenders for Lurssen’s 160m Blue. The spacious interior cabin is supremely luxurious, with a colour scheme that matches the mothership. Privacy glass stretches the length of the cabin on both sides as well as overhead, and there’s seating for 14 guests with additional seating for 6 to aft.
▪️ 45-knot top speed
▪️ x2 Volvo DPH drives
▪️ Draft of just 0.6m
▪️ Concealed head compartment
▪️ Integrated audiovisual system
