Just saw a slightly cryptic post on the Structures Facebook page alluding to a Pogo3. Anyone know anything more?

That could be either a Pogo3 or an Mk3 of the C40? I'd wager that Structures might not really want to get back into building these small boats... but then again I might be wrong. A P3 would certainly draw a lot of interest!

Part of what got me thinking it was a mini was who some of the comments came from, a certain past CM president included

But as they're all left guessing just the same we might have to wait until the Salon, I suppose. It would be the logical place to announce something of that sort.

So Andreas Lindlahr just posted on Facebook that it's indeed about the Pogo 3. Let's trust that man, he knows what he's talking about.

Oh my. :ph34r:

Very unlikely, after all they want to sell boats, and way too many people find the scow just dead ugly. There's good reasons why the scow never really made the jump across the Big Pond.

They just posted to Facebook that it is designed by guillaume verdier who designed Macif with VPLP. Could be a very advanced series design.

There, fixed that for you.

Will be interesting to see how close it is to the Generic (One) proto(s), and how they're performing in relation to eachother, and the concurrents. Bring it on!
