Unique Manuard 10.50 Prototype - "The perfect balance between absolute glide and long-distance cruising."
Angela, whose keel is often compared to Pogos, the only large and planing serial sailboats known to the general public, is a 2007 prototype that served as a true architectural laboratory for Sam Manuard. He is the creator of the success of the Seascape, now First, of the First 30 JK, of the First 53, and of famous Minis, Class 40s, and IMOCAs that currently dominate podiums in real-time.
Built exclusively with sandwich glass/epoxy (one-off), this sailboat was designed without the constraints of major shipyards and remains, nearly 20 years later, incredibly performant and current. Lighter, stiffer, it offers extraordinary sensations of glide and speed, even sailing close-hauled, while ensuring remarkable comfort and interior volume. Under sail, at anchor, or at dock, it has an undeniable class and attracts all eyes...
