The Pogo 12.5 is a high-performance fractional sloop designed by Finot-Conq and built by Pogo Structures (FRA) in 2011. With a displacement of 12125.0 lb and a D/L ratio of 78.48, it represents a lightweight, racing-oriented platform where the exact hull count remains unspecified in available records.
- Best for:
- This boat suits performance-oriented coastal cruisers and racers who prioritize speed and handling over heavy bluewater comfort, given its low comfort ratio of 12.68 and light displacement.
- Bluewater capability:
- While the capsize ratio of 2.57 suggests reasonable stability, the light displacement and performance-focused hull form make it less ideal for heavy offshore passages compared to heavier displacement cruisers, requiring careful weight management and sea state selection.
- Comparables:
- Comparable boats include the X-Yachts X-41 and the Beneteau First 42, as they share similar fractional rig configurations, light displacement profiles, and a focus on planing capabilities in moderate winds.
