Default What is a Mirage?

http://www.offshoreonly.com/esvon/page-6474.html

This 36 ft Mirage has been in classifieds for a little while and it has been on ebay a couple of times. What is a mirage? It seems like a good boat fair priced. How does it compare to a Cafe/ Top Gun. THanks.

Mirage was a boat Builder. I had a mechanic that had one on Erie, I think his was a 29'.
I don't think the boat in the ad is a Cigarette - but I could be wrong.

I am not familar with the 36' Mirage, but that 33' Armed and Dangerous was a great boat to watch race in the early 90's. Back in the day the 29' Mirage was a strong race boat in the P class, "Wolverine" used to hold its own in that class.
