In parallel with the launch of the POGO 44 the POGO Structures yard is also launching a new motor boat: The LOXO 32 Outboard version.

Three years ago, the POGO Structures shipyard launched The LOXO 32 is modern cruising boat able to sail for long periods under pilot at a comfortable speed of 12 knots. A light & fast boat with a great autonomy in navigation.

Low consumption obtained with an High-tech build quality identical to the POGO sailboats but also with the choice to install a small engine power on board.

With this experience the LOXO 32 continues her evolution and expands her possibilities with a new model: The LOXO 32 OUTBOARD a version equipped with in choice: one or two engines.

Why the Outboard choise?

In her original version the LOXO 32 is equipped with a diesel engine allowing very low consumption (0.5 liters per mile at 12 knots) and a maximum speed of 19/20 knots.

Many boaters asked the shipyard to build a LOXO 32 with more engine power.

On the hull we find two little fins for the stability andit will be able to land more easily on all beaches or small creeks with the engine base raised and this without legs on the sides.

Interior comfort

The interior comfort remains identical on all versions (Diesel, electric & Outboard): 1 Kitchen, 1 Toilet cabin and beds for 4 crews.

The panoramic wheelhouse can always receive a second driving position.

Outside

On this new version of the LOXO 32 Outboard the storage volumes increase with very generous cockpit seat boxes.

The friendly outdoor saloon with double benches can also be quickly transformed into a very comfortable sundeck.

The stern ends receive two platforms for swimming or dock access.

Like all the other POGO models, the LOXO 32 Outboard is unsinkable with many foam reserves sealed during the construction.

A new model available for testing very quickly in the shipyard POGO Structures in Combrit (Brittany).
