The 435 Mk II
The 435 Mk II is the most complete performance cruiser we have ever tested. Nothing comes close.
The Arcona 435 Mk II didn’t just win Yacht of the Year. It redefined what a performance cruiser can be. Lighter, stiffer, faster than its predecessor — but with the same commitment to life aboard that Arcona has always carried.
The hull is pure performance: a fine entry, flat sections aft, a deep fin keel that generates lift under every point of sail. Push her and she accelerates with a snap that surprises even experienced sailors. Ease off and she settles into a comfortable, confidence-inspiring cruise.
Below, the interior is a testament to Swedish craftsmanship. Teak or oak joinery, clean sightlines, a galley designed for passage making. Not a boat to be admired at the dock – a boat to be sailed.
Every figure a consequence of one goal - the fastest, most capable boat of her size.

What makes her
The 435 Mk II was not designed to look fast. She was designed to be fast. A 2019 European Yacht of the Year, her hull delivers exceptional performance in real sailing conditions - upwind, downwind and in the confused chop of an offshore passage. She rewards good seamanship and forgives the occasional lapse.
The aft cockpit of the 435 Mk II is a masterclass in considered design. Generous seating, a well-positioned helm and clean line management mean that one person can genuinely sail her, and two can do it effortlessly. Taking the wheel is never a chore, only an experience.
CE Category A. The 435 Mk II was built to the same offshore standard as every Arcona that leaves Henån. She handles open water with the kind of composure that comes from a well-sorted hull and a rig that gives you options. Take her racing on Saturday. Point her at the horizon on Sunday. She is ready for both.
