Construction

The second great success for Structures: from 1999 to 2010, more than 180 Pogo 8.50s were built. Voted“Sailboat of the Year 2001”, the Pogo 8.50 is impressive, and redefines the standards for cruising boats.

Just after its launch in 1999, it won a superb victory in the Transquadra Solo in the hands of Michel Mirabel.

Simple, solid, light, spacious, fast and easy to sail, the Pogo 8.50 is first and foremost an all-round boat ideal for summer cruising and long-distance cruising, and coastal and offshore racing.
