“Dominator strives for excellence in everything we do. We find the best components and systems and put them altogether in an outstanding package to produce an unequalled experience at sea.” Its modus operandi is to determine the optimum solution and think about the cost later. Technical data The new Dominator Ilumen semi- displacement and semi-planing hull range comprises the Ilumen 28M, 32M, 36M and 38M Tri-Deck. The interior dressing of each Dominator yacht is a highly personal affair, so the team works closely with the owners to make it a bespoke design that fits them like a glove in terms of taste and preferences. Other than the necessary structural and regulatory considerations, the owner has no restrictions: layout modifications, choice of propulsion systems, individual cruising speed, fabrics and furnishings, joinery styles, fixtures and fittings – could all be specified individually. At the same time, the Bespoke Interior Office of Dominator Ilumen is constantly on the quest for new designs and innovative materials. The interior of each Ilumen is completely tailormade to the individual needs of each owner: moving structural bulkheads and re-engineering the complete ambient in the cabins or finding precious eyecatchers that are putting the icing on the cake, is nothing extraordinary for the team who is used to handling the most difficult requests. As the name indicates, Ilumen aims to provide its owners and guests with a more potent connection with the world outside through illumination of the interior with plenty of natural light. This is achieved by a spectacular array of windows in the hull and the superstructure, on both decks. The expansive windows on the sides of the boat as well as around the owner’s suite single out Ilumen boats from its counterparts. Dominator has teamed up with the best in class for each and every supply to achieve both performance and comfort at sea. The unique structural design of the Dominator HPH (High Performance Hull) that merges strength with lightweight flexibility, speed and fuel efficiency, is an industry leading innovation. The development of the Ilumen’s unusual hull form first involved the use of CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamic) modelling. Issue 34 2018 The Art of Luxury 19
