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.

The cruise

Magnificent trip carried out in family. We could discover the navigation, and also maneuver the sailboat. An unforgettable day in a magnificent site. To renew

The skipper

Julie is a very experienced skipper, passionate and also very educational, who adapts to the level of each one. We feel at once in security during our participation in the navigation. She also made us discover the bay that she knows by heart.

The cruise

Super trip, we had asked for an afternoon class starting with two rather than a cruise and julie was very educational and explained the basics very well while leaving us a certain autonomy for the manoeuvres. All this in a superb atmosphere! We'll be back for sure!

The skipper

Very patient and friendly:)

The cruise

An afternoon discovered with the whole family, around Port La Forêt and its surroundings; really a plus to have privatized the boat for a top private lesson!

The skipper

Julie, pro and pedago, very attentive to our expectations, dynamic and passionate so there too, THE real plus of this outing!

The cruise

1/2 DAY SAILING DISCOVERY ON A HABITABLE SAILBOAT, THE WEATHER WAS THERE. THE SKIPPER WAS ABLE TO PUT A DYNAMIC INTO THE GROUP TO ALLOW EVERYONE TO MANOEUVRE THE BOAT IN TURN AT DIFFERENT POSITIONS (WINCH, GENOA SHEET, MAINSAIL SHEET AND HELM). THE EXPLANATIONS GIVEN WERE CLEAR I HAD A GOOD AFTERNOON;

The skipper

THE SKIPPER MADE US FEEL COMFORTABLE GETTING ON THE BOAT. SHE EXPLAINED ALL THE MANOEUVRES TO US; SHE WAS LISTENING TO OUR QUESTIONS ON BOARD AND MADE US AWARE OF THE BOAT'S HANDLING AND THE ENVIRONMENT ON THE WATER WITH OTHER SEA USERS. NOBODY WAS LISTENING AND VERY DYNAMIC WITH THE CREW. WE FEEL SAFE WITH HER, IT'S GREAT.

Best memories

ON THE BOAT THE ATMOSPHERE WAS GOOD. A COUPLE OF PASSENGERS WERE ABLE TO SPEND A FEW MOMENTS AT THE FRONT OF THE BOAT AT THE FOOT OF MÄT TO ADMIRE THE LANDSCAPE IN COMPLETE TRANQUILITY.
