Designed by Stefan Qviberg and built by Arcona Yachts from 2010–2019, the Arcona 340 is a robust fractional sloop known for its heavy displacement and comfortable motion. With a displacement of 11464.0 lb and a comfort ratio of 21.37, it offers a stable platform that balances performance with liveaboard comfort.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and liveaboard owners who prioritize interior volume and motion comfort over high-speed planing. Its fractional sloop rig and moderate sail area-to-displacement ratio make it manageable for couples or small families seeking a capable cruiser.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a low capsize ratio of 2.01 and a displacement of 11464.0 lb, the Arcona 340 is well-suited for offshore passages, offering excellent stability and resistance to capsizing in heavy weather.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Hallberg-Rassy 342 and the Nauticat 343, which share similar heavy-displacement characteristics and Scandinavian build quality. These vessels are comparable due to their focus on durability, interior space, and offshore readiness rather than racing performance.
