Northshore 340 Mk II

The Northshore 340 Mk II is a highly regarded Australian-built cruiser/racer that strikes an excellent balance between comfortable cruising and competitive club racing. Designed by renowned Australian naval architect Hank Kaufman, the 340 Mk II is known for its solid construction, spacious cockpit, practical interior layout, and easily managed sail plan. With responsive sailing performance and forgiving handling, they are equally suited to short-handed sailing, family cruising, or weekend racing around the cans.

Frangipani presents exceptionally well and is a clear reflection of long-term, attentive ownership. She has benefited from consistent maintenance, thoughtful upgrades, and detailed service history across multiple owners. The spacious cockpit layout offers comfortable aft seating and creates an excellent space for entertaining or relaxing at anchor, while the open transom and wide side decks make access around the boat and into the water effortless.

Her sail wardrobe is well set up for both cruising and club racing and includes North Sails fully battened Dacron Triradial mainsail, North Sails No. 1.5 furling Dacron Triradial headsail, North Sails No. 3 furling headsail with vertical battens, North Sails fractional asymmetric spinnaker with snuffer, and storm jib.

Frangipani has seen significant investment in recent years, including all thru-hull fittings replaced with TruDesign fittings and seacocks, engine and saildrive serviced, antifoul and hull polish completed, new anchor with chain and rode fitted, major electronics upgrade including B&G Vulcan chartplotter, B&G AIS transponder, B&G wind sensor, and B&G hydraulic ram autopilot with rudder feedback unit, rigging replaced with full rig inspection completed, and bimini and dodger replaced with new clears fitted.

Frangipani represents an excellent opportunity to step into a highly regarded Australian cruiser/racer that has clearly benefited from ongoing care and investment. Combining strong sailing performance with comfortable accommodation and a long list of meaningful upgrades, she is a turnkey package ideally suited to coastal cruising, club racing, or relaxed weekends away on the water. Well presented and thoughtfully maintained, she is ready for her next owners to step aboard and enjoy immediately.
