About
Circumnavigating New Zealand, or the globe, this Cat can take you anywhere you want to go. Orakei Marine is proud to present North Star II to the market for sale in Auckland.
She is a versatile & beautifully timeless vessel. In coastal cruising mode, she will sprint effortlessly to your favourite anchorage at 30 knots, easily handling the short sharp chop, typical of inshore conditions within the Gulf. The catamaran configuration ensures smooth planing underway. The relatively shallow draft opens up a wide range of options, while the aft boarding platform and easy tender storage makes coming and going a breeze.
With more ambitious destinations to visit, North Star II transforms into a capable global explorer. In bluewater mode, her copious tanks and displacement speeds make ocean crossings entirely feasible.
Easy handling and operating systems make North Star ideal for adventures with family and friends. Thoughtful space utilisation breaks the vessel up into a number of areas, where people can either congregate, or enjoy their own company. These include aft, upper and lower cockpits and an inviting lounging area recessed into the foredeck.
Indoors, the lower and upper saloons provide great versatility for casual or formal entertaining. State of the art sound systems and two giant flat screen videos provide background ambiance or upfront entertainment, while the master stateroom and three guest suites (all ensuite) provide elegant accommodations with a contemporary theme.
The generous spaces offered by the catamaran form make North Star equally suited to catering for large groups. For corporate functions, or regatta viewing, she is easily able to absorb groups of 40 to 50 people. The well-equipped galley is perfectly placed to serve guests in both saloon or al fresco in the large aft cockpit.
The upper deck comprises an enclosed flybridge and skylounge, which opens 0ut onto a large open sundeck. This is a favourite gathering place, but also serves as a stowage area for additional dinghies, fenders or water toys. A discreetly placed electric hoist makes deploying and retrieving recreational equipment effortless.
Advanced electronics make for reliable navigation, systems monitoring and global communication. At the business end, Twin Caterpillar engines are housed in a spacious, well-ventilated engine room to make it easy for efficient maintenance.
Built to an extremely high standard by Salthouse Boatbuilders, the composite construction offers great strength and easy maintenance. It also allows for complex curves and flowing lines, adding to Northstar’s graceful aesthetics.

My wife and I worked with Andrew Hodgdon to sell our 2021 FP Elba 45. In addition to skillfully carrying out the traditional yacht broker responsibilities, Andrew went above-and-beyond to ensure that we were well-positioned to sell in a competitive market. For example, Andrew helped out with much-appreciated repairs and hurricane prep, among other things. Trustworthy, intelligent, and conscientious, Andrew’s communications with us and the buyer were always thoughtful and forward-thinking, and fairly represented our interests.
We really lucked out in connecting with The Multihull Company. We made a cold call to Cynthia Wummer, a Multihull Company broker and told her we wanted to buy a catamaran to cruise The Great Loop and experience the Bahamas. We particularly wanted a PDQ power catamaran. From our first contact she was so helpful and responsive. She immediately contacted a selling broker who represented a prospective seller. Because we are new to a bigger boat and boating on the ICW, Cynthia assisted us through the entire process. She is a captain which was an added bonus to the process; she knew all the right questions to ask the selling broker as well as the surveyor. She drove 3 hours to be present during the survey, she developed a good relationship with the selling broker, she called and checked in with us regularly, was very enthusiastic about our purchase, and answered all our questions. We could not have done it without her. The Multlihull Company support team, Andrew Holland and Courtney Greider, were so helpful in the closing process: the paperwork was easy to complete and communication was smooth and timely. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend The Multihull Company and Cynthia to anyone who is the market for a boat large or small. Thank you!!!!
Multihull Company has succeeded again. This is my second time using their services and they are extremely professional and honest. Working with their brokers and their administrative team was easy. Communication occurred at every level and constructive advise was always given. They know this business inside and out and acted as my fiduciary in every way. I will use them again for their service and knowledge.
Great to deal with and very patient in our questions. They were able to find us the perfect vessel for our needs.
Successful relationships cannot exist without it. At The Multihull Company we base every relationship on a firm commitment to earning and retaining our client’s trust.
Advice of any kind is valuable only when grounded in hard-won expertise. It too, must be trustworthy. Trust and expertise define the heart and soul of The Multihull Company. We are a team of skilled professionals who thrive on providing expert, trustworthy advice and service to catamaran and trimaran sailors around the globe.
