The Mini 6.50 PGN Ocean Racing is a Mini 6.50 foiling prototype designed by Sam Manuard and built by JPS Production (La Trinité-sur-Mer) for American skipper Peter Gibbons-Neff Jr. Fifth unit in the Manuard prototype lineage after Nicomatic, it aims for full-flight downwind performance while remaining manageable single-handed.

Launch scheduled for spring 2026, two seasons of fine-tuning, then target Mini Transat 2027 (La Rochelle–Canaries–Salvador de Bahia, approximately 4,000 nautical miles single-handed).
