SailChecker Expert View

Perfect for racing-minded crews. The Pogo 36 is a purpose-built performance yacht that rewards active sailing, this isn't a relaxation cruiser, it's built for speed and handling. If your group enjoys trimming sails, playing with a spinnaker, and getting competitive on the water, Aminata delivers genuine thrills.

Standout speed and kit. The gennaker and spinnaker combo transforms her into a proper racing machine, while the chart plotter keeps navigation straightforward even if you're charting unfamiliar waters after a long-haul flight. Three cabins sleep six comfortably for a week's adventure, and cockpit cushions at least add some comfort during those longer passages.

Excellent value proposition. At €2,950 per week with a modest €4,000 deposit, you're getting serious performance credentials without the superyacht price tag, this is honest money for a lively, well-equipped sailing vessel that won't bore experienced crews.

One honest note: The Pogo 36 demands active crew participation and sailing knowledge; this isn't forgiving for beginners or those wanting a leisurely float. If your group includes non-sailors or anyone expecting a relaxed pace, you might find her demanding rather than fun.

The marina & destination

Based at Port de la Trinité-sur-Mer, in La Trinité-sur-Mer, France. Aminata is operated by Open Sail.

Cours des Quais

Why this is a great starting point

Port de la Trinité-sur-Mer is ideally positioned for exploring the Gulf of Morbihan, where you can spend week one sailing amongst shallow-draft channels, islands, and anchorages within a few hours of departure. The marina works well as a base for westbound cruising toward the Quiberon Peninsula and Belle-Île, or eastbound into the Vilaine estuary, giving you flexible options depending on wind conditions and preference. Protected waters dominate week one, making this a good choice if you want to acclimatise to your boat before reaching open water.

Frequently asked questions
Can Aminata be rented with or without a skipper?
You can charter Aminata bareboat (you skipper) if you hold the relevant sailing licence, or hire a professional skipper alongside the yacht. The choice is yours when you request the quote.
What sailing licence do I need to charter Aminata?
Bareboat charter typically requires a recognised sailing licence (RYA Day Skipper, ICC, ASA, or equivalent) plus a VHF radio licence. The exact requirements depend on the country of charter — we confirm with the operator when you enquire.
What's included in the charter price?
The charter fee covers the yacht, standard equipment, and insurance for the dates booked. Tourist tax, transit log (final cleaning + bed linen), fuel, food, marina fees during the trip, and any optional extras (skipper, paddle board, etc.) are normally extra and paid at the base.
What additional costs should I expect at the base?
Typical mandatory extras are the transit log (often €200–€350), tourist tax (a small per-person-per-day fee), and a refundable security deposit (often €1,500–€5,000 depending on the yacht). Optional extras like a skipper, hostess, paddle board, or early check-in are listed on the quote.
How does the security deposit work?
The deposit is held by the operator at check-in (usually card pre-authorisation) and refunded after check-out if the yacht is returned without damage. Many operators offer a deposit-waiver insurance product that reduces the held amount in exchange for a smaller non-refundable premium.
Can I cancel my charter booking?
Cancellation terms vary by operator. Most allow cancellation with a full refund if requested more than 60–90 days before the start date, with progressive penalties closer to departure. Some operators offer a flexible-cancellation insurance product when you book.
Is the yacht insured?
Yes — every yacht is insured by the operator against damage and third-party liability. The insurance covers the yacht itself; personal effects and trip cancellation are not covered and are worth insuring separately.
What documents do I need to bring?
You'll need your passport, sailing licence (if chartering bareboat), VHF radio licence, and proof of payment. The operator will send a check-in form ahead of time covering crew details and any special requests.
What payment methods are accepted?
Charter fees are normally paid by bank transfer in advance (often a 50% deposit at booking, balance 30 days before charter). On-base extras are usually paid by card or in cash.
