Tatoosh

By Erin Ferucci
Celebrity Lifestyle Designer

There are some love affairs that stay with you for a life time. I spent 3 years designing the interiors for Tatoosh, an amazing private yacht that is currently owned by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, but at the time was owned by Craig McCaw. Tatoosh was a labor of love for me. She is the ultimate in luxury yachting. The clients really wanted Tatoosh to feel like a stately home at sea. The mood we created was relaxed elegance. Tatoosh was a welcoming haven for friends and family. It remains one of the largest private yachts in the world. With five decks sporting several salons, staterooms, a master suite, (all stone slabs through out the yacht were hand picked in Italy)multiple dinning areas, a ginourmous six foot deep shaded swimming pool that can double as a dance floor at nightand even a movie theater Tatoosh was and is luxury defined. All of the furniture that you see was custom built and or purchased for Tatoosh from various showrooms in Los Angeles, with a small amount added from Miami and the South of France. You can see why Tatoosh is a fond memory.
