I blew the picture way up and it looks like a Mirage 29 to me. It has the same small step on the gunwale like ours. The vents are different than I've seen on other ones but it's an old boat who knows who has changed it over the years? Regardless it's defiantly cool and defiantly a project.

That was one bad-ass Mirage, and I agree with you, that boat in the picture is a Mirage on page one of this thread. t.

Last I saw the 32 Mirage it was in Denver, NC (near Charlotte) at American Marine Liquidators. They also had an 85 Apache 23 and an old 73 Cary 32 and lots of others in their "offshore graveyard". .

Kind of funny, the side profile pic in the CL ad (and the one I posted earlier) is a cell phone pic I took there a few years ago.

Cheers,
