The Pogo 40 GTE is a high-performance sailing yacht designed by the French naval architect
Finot-Conq and built by the shipyard Pogo Structures in France. The Pogo 40 GTE is part of the
Pogo range, known for its lightweight, speed, and agility, particularly in offshore racing and
cruising.
With an ergonomic cockpit she is designed to be sailed easily single-handed or with reduced
crew. Her custom-built hard dodger provides shelter for the on-watch crew improving
fatigue management and comfort at sea. The dodger can be removed and stored ashore.
With the legendary strength and sea-keeping qualities of the water ballasted Class 40 design
she is capable of exhilarating speed off the breeze. She needs no encouragement to get up
onto the plane and loves to boogie.
Since relocating to Western Australia in 2021 she has been professionally maintained and
has benefited from new sails (3Di), new electronics, new running rigging, and many other
upgrades as noted on her extensive inventory. Racing on PHS she has turned in some
creditable results in some of the longer WA Blue Water races, 1st Fremantle to Exmouth, 1st
Geraldton to Fremantle and 2nd Cape Naturaliste Return.
Down below her elegant and easy to maintain interior has provided comfort for a crew of 6
on long passages. With ample stowage and a simple yet well thought out design she is the
perfect racing/cruising cross over boat. There is sufficient internal ballast to make her
unsinkable.
