Model

POGO 36 - 10.86 meters

About

At 10.86m long and 4m wide, with a maximum draught of 2.95m, this high-flying cruiser is a real firecracker! Rigged as a sloop, she was voted Boat of the Year in 2017. Reliable in heavy weather, she also boasts exhilarating speeds in the slightest breeze, and winds up incredibly close-hauled. Its lugged mainsail, solent and asymmetric spinnaker ensure stability and a thrilling feel at all points of sail.
The tiller is particularly appreciated in the context of a training course, allowing the instructor to demonstrate during a series of exercises just how much fine-tuning immediately affects the boat's reactions. Her 3 cabins can accommodate a maximum crew of 8, even though comfort is simple on this boat, which is above all technical and sporty.
