    I am quite excited about the new Pogo 12.5 from pogostructures.com
    They are well known from their minitransat and Open40 designs.

    Seems that they are going to offer a boat with racer-hull for long range family cruising. Speeds are said to reach more than 15 knots. This is combined with a lifting keel (3m/1.2m) and some simplifications: (no water ballast, no backstay but 25 ° spreaders, no traveller)

    Is there anything similar (in that size) available on the market?
