Austrian
yacht builder
Dominator Yachts recently launched the second hull in the
Dominator 800 range. The new yacht is part of a range that replaced the popular Dominator 780 series.
Okay, maybe not replaced but has spun off the design and successes of the D780. With the first hull being launched that was more of a standard version of the new range. The second and current hull which was recently launched, is more of a customized version.
The CEO of Dominator International,
Alex Langhein commented on the launching and individualistic nature of the yacht. “For each yacht we produce, we always seek to perfect, improve and update. We don’t build 10 of the same specification and then try to find customers for them. When a customer chooses a yacht from our range, we sit down with them and discuss the latest technology. This means that every Dominator launched is not just up to date but is a forerunner in technology.” She is performance oriented as you would expect with a 35-knot top-end speed being supplied by the power of MAN. Dial her back to cruising status and she still outputs blistering 25 to 27-knot figures. Dial back even further to trawling speeds of 10-knots continuously a range of 1,450 nautical miles is possible.
On the interior, the second hull features an interior by Alberto Mancini. Mancini went on to talk about the interior work. “My personal choice which was accepted and which we worked on together was to develop a nice warming and elegant atmosphere, not big contrasts but tone on tone colours, a shade of beige,
taupe and
grey. The brighter
oak brushed painted parquet with the
oak painted bulkhead gives immediately a welcoming perception of elegance.” There is no sacrifice in luxurious materials utilized on the interior with light
Ostrich leather being among them.
