h2oboater, this is what you boat looks like now. Sunset Bar on here owns it and is in the process of rigging it with 383s and bravos.

That boat is very nice. Love the tone on the White and the decor! When you say Off White - can we say it's Close to "Cream White"?
The reason I ask that detail is that we are buildning a new Activator canopy race and the hullsides are "Cream White" and the most crazy thing is that the decor will look pretty much the same

There is a nice 36 Mirage on Cleveland OH craigslist that could most likely be bought for 20k. Original black hull with 502s. I would jump on it if I had the space.

Just saw this tonight, NICE! I'm glade to see the progress on her as it sat off route 2 @ the shop without much activity, it will run great with a pair of 383's.

I may go look at the 36 on craigslist this weekend. The boat looks clean and the price is right. The owner told me it was from FL and is a 3 owner boat. Apparently its an original black Mirage which only a few were made.
