The Arcona 465, designed by Stefan Quiberg and built by Arcona Yachts starting in 2016, is a modern fractional sloop with a displacement of 21054.0 lb. While the exact hull count is not definitively established in the source data, the vessel is characterized by a D/L ratio of 114.42 and a capsize ratio of 2.02, indicating a balanced performance cruiser.
- Best for:
- This boat suits coastal cruisers and those seeking a comfortable, stable platform for weekend getaways or short passages, given its moderate comfort ratio of 22.05 and fractional rig configuration.
- Bluewater capability:
- With a displacement of 21054.0 lb and a capsize ratio of 2.02, the Arcona 465 offers reasonable offshore stability, though its bluewater readiness is contingent on addressing critical structural and steering maintenance issues.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the Beneteau Oceanis 46.1 and the Hanse 458, as they share similar fractional sloop rigs, beam widths around 14 ft, and target the same performance-cruising market segment from the mid-2010s.
