Broker’s Comment
This Pogo 12.50 represents a rare and highly developed offshore platform in the 40-foot segment. Her strong result in the Rolex Fastnet Race 2025 clearly demonstrates her capability under demanding offshore conditions — offering a level of confidence far beyond that of a typical harbor-race yacht.
What distinguishes this boat from many other 12.50s currently on the market is the overall specification and upgrade level. Here you get:

✔️ Documented offshore result
✔️ Modern North 3Di sail inventory
✔️ Full B&G H5000 electronics package
✔️ Lithium battery bank and hydrogenerator
✔️ Technically upgraded and professionally reviewed platform
The keel and hydraulics have been serviced, the engine was replaced in 2022, the energy system modernized, and the sail inventory alone represents a significant investment.
Internationally, 2011–2012 models are typically advertised around NOK 2.6–3.0 million equivalent, while 2015–2017 models are generally seen in the NOK 3.3–3.6 million range depending on specification. This yacht is priced in the upper range of the 2012 segment, yet compares favorably — and in some areas surpasses — several newer examples in terms of technical upgrades and equipment level.
For a buyer, this means reduced future investment needs, immediate usability, and a yacht ready for the starting line or an ocean crossing tomorrow.
This is a Pogo 12.50 for the discerning sailor who understands the value of the right specification — not just the year of build.
