SailChecker Expert View
Ideal for active sailors This 2020 Pogo 36 suits experienced sailors or confident intermediates who want a modern, nimble racer-cruiser rather than a floating hotel. With just 10.9 metres and three cabins, it's built for performance, not pampering, so you'll need to enjoy hands-on sailing.
Genuinely quick vessel The Pogo range punches well above its weight for speed and handling, and this one comes well-equipped with essentials like autopilot, sprayhood, and chart plotter. You'll have responsive steering and lively sailing characteristics that make passage-making genuinely enjoyable rather than a slow slog.
Smart value proposition At this size and age with a reasonable deposit (€4,000), Spicy represents decent value if you're chartering for a week of active sailing, especially if you're flying long-haul and want a capable boat rather than a larger, slower cruiser that feels bloated for a small crew.
Tight quarters note Three cabins across 11 metres means compact sleeping and shared facilities; if your group expects privacy or comfort comparable to a 45-footer, you'll feel the squeeze. Also, confirm the charter base location with Open Sail upfront, as that'll determine your airport transfer time from whatever international hub you're flying into.

The marina & destination
Based at Port de Bormes-les-Mimosas, in Bormes-les-Mimosas, France. Spicy is operated by Open Sail.
Quai d'Honneur
Port de Bormes-les-Mimosas sits on the central Côte d'Azur, offering direct access to the Îles d'Hyères (Porquerolles, Port-Cros, and Levant) within a few hours' sailing; week one typically involves exploring these protected anchorages and the quieter eastern approaches to the Maures coastline. The marina works well for charters seeking relatively sheltered waters with established anchorages, though the Mistral can funnel down from the northwest and warrant careful timing. From here you can reach Saint-Tropez to the west or push east toward the Lérins Islands near Cannes, giving you flexibility depending on wind conditions and your experience level.
