What is old is new again! This hull form and shape appears to be very similar to the long skinny commuter and torpedo boats from 1890 to 1930. The joystick cabin helm was a surprise. After letting it percolate and brew for a while, I like it. Make the dash board foldable so it can be stowed under the coaming, the space can easily be converted to cabin space when not in use. I would cozy up the interior a little more as the minimalist stark white interior feels very cold and un inviting visually. But overall I like the layout of this boat.

That navigation station... the boat really gives the vibe of a demasted sailboat. It's ironic how Pogo sailboats are these overpoweredish speed demons, optimized for going really fast downwind while their motorboat is this super efficient, 75hp powered, experimental boat, optimized for 11 knots. I reckon we will see more boats of this ilk in the future, just like their beamy race/cruisers also started a trend on sailing yachts.

Today we've seen it live at Boat Düsseldorf.... awesome and beautiful at the same time. We fell in love with it, instantly. This is a design we've never seen before...👍

[@RandyWHorton]

I would love to experiment with this boat and circle the globe via coast line!

[@mymingyen]

The boat looks awesome... would be great craft to put in a solar electric drive

[@rwkayser]

Please narrate over a video instead of submitting a video with such poor audio quality. Please!

[@rykehuss3435]

So much this.

[@eyesofisabelofficial]

I told that to the bus driver "Cheaper by boat !" ....he made me walk :)

[@billyb7469]

Do you get twin engine option

[@rwg2626]

Not for me, but I’m glad people are still making interesting boats

[@4406bbldb]

Is this Pogo a utility boat?

[@PhilbyFavourites]

I shall be giving you some earache about your sound at the Southampton Boat Show... I'm looking for a positive answer to improve the sound quality!

[@eatfetus]

Nick is back to his sound effects. Please buy proper mic or narrate after filming.

[@KitLaughlin]

Nick, all you need is a little wind sock on your lav. mic. (these are cruelly called, 'dead cats').

[@keithbucknall]

What’s the retail price?

[@cordobes]

Standard equipment + 50hp motor, it's about €100k, ex-VAT.

[@timdaniel5395]

If you think this is bad did you see the Goldfish ones from the South of France? Dear oh dear!

[@olrikm]

What was the purpose of that video? I thought it would be about the boat...

[@ohnezuckerohnefett]

Invest in better equipment for windy situations.

[@marineboy6033]

Personally I’d like a two seat helm so I can sit next to the Mrs! Also lower helm looks like you can’t wedge yourself in that easily....will take a look in Southampton....would like proper cabin door too or perhaps a divider like on the Cormate T27 cabin.....as already said the quality of this video is awful - really amateurish....

КЛАССНЫЙ КРУИЗНЫЙ КАТЕР ! CE B ?

[@siegfriedwegmann5821]

Realy nice boat. 👍Tone👎

[@heroruls]

maybe its me but looks like very lidel storage and it looks smal i lookt it up and it 9.5meters long and 2.55m beam then i sory but my lohi 25 has 4 sleeping places as wel and is like 40 years old and hs way more storige space do i wil admit if you want a fuel efficiënt motorboot there are not many to choose from

[@paulnorman8274]

It's 1800 kg.... It is small. As well as to be low profile, for fuel efficiency (and behaviour at sea.) Most 32 foot power boats are much wider, deeper and taller. hence have more space. But also use much more fuel. As a side effect, they also have more stuff to keep up.

[@GENECARP]

😌 Sounds Good

[@EgilWar]

From what I saw in the video it looked very cheaply made.

[@pinopino1086]

It is not! It's like a flying saucer....time machine. I loved it....

[@paulnorman8274]

"Pick one up (you almost can...)." Building to the kind of weight which enables this kind of economy, is not cheap. Pogos are "normal people" boats, not America's Cup exotics. But, like all Pogos, this one is very tightly, far from "cheaply" built. The minimalism and lack of extravagant interior, is to save weight.

[@michaltoth9573]

..so boring this test ...he doesnt know how to do it...

[@tonybrowne7220]

Ugly boat
