Pogo 2
The Pogo 2 tooling has been delivered to Columbia Yachts and production is going to get underway shortly. Over the next few weeks we'll be working closely with Pogo Structures in France to get the first boat built and out sailing in Southern California. Open Sailing recently spent some time in France learning more about production, meeting some Mini sailors and sailing on the Pogo2 - we'll have pictures and videos posted soon!
