Looks alright doesn't it? Not alot is known about this chappy yet, other than these pictures and the blurb from PogoStructures which says,
"There’s been a new development in the shipyard Structures. The prototype of the Pogo 10.50 is now in construction in the yard and should sail for the first time in the autumn. Drawn by Finot-Conq with a design signed by Patrick Roseo, the Pogo 10.50 will be marine, fast, functional and comfortable for lovers of sensational sea far cruises. Equipped with a lifting keel, its variable draught makes you able to explore the coasts. Like its brothers, the Pogo 10.50 will be built with the vaccum bag moulding system. Light, this boat will be equipped with a carbon mast and a deck plan optimized for a navigation with a reduce crew. The interior will be very clear and comfortable: small bathroom with shower, fridge, air heater, 6 berths and technical area."

Look at that! 1.89m Headroom (6'4") and a draft between 1.05m and 2.8m! Cool.
I'm sure "the Mate" is reading this rather nervously at the moment. Somewhere along the lines of "Oh Bugger". Fortunately its probably going to a) cost a bloomin fortune and b) be so beamy it wont get into our berth (think 3.9m is a bit much for MDL)
Problem with these things is that they "tick all the boxes" for our requirements. Fast in light airs, easy to sail (designed around 1 or 2 people), fully offshore capable and looks, by all acounts to be well laid out. Depends on how they put it together really. We'll wait and see.
For those of you that dont know, Pogo's do this....
