Just picked up this mirage for 2 grand here in northern cali. 350 omc 800 with only 89 hours

Looks good! Do you plan do work on it or keep it as is?

I loved my 1986 Mirage Intimidator! Sounds like you got a great boat for a great price! Congrats

I had an Intimidator too. Mirages are great boats. Great classic lines. Congratulations!

Im about to buy a 1987 Mirage Intruder with a 5.7 litre, alpha one and ez loader trailer...544 hours, mint condition for $6700!!. Blue book on these is $4200 Plus trailer. How on earth did you get one for $2000??
Im paying above book because of the immaculate condition. Are there any issues with yours?

Here's a couple pics of the one Im about to buy:

Wow. Gorgeous boat and a steal!

thats almost identical to mine I think the colors are swapped a lil different. Well come to find out the gears in the drive where shot and unlike most mirage intruders I have a omc 800 stringer drive set up with a chevy 350. I replaced the drive gears myself cost me $1000 witch beats the shops price of 3500. Took it out and the boat runs like a dream I was kinda iffy on the omc stringer set up but its runs really strong I got her up to 62 turning a 14x23 pitch prop and a summit 600 double pump carb and mild cam. my only issue is will this drive hold up. Iv been told the omc drives are strong u ;just have to keep good oil in them. but other then that she (WETDREAMS) great. everywhere I take her people just love the boat. I had a guy offer me 7 grand for the boat he had been looking for one. But i think i will hold on to her for a while.....

hell of a deal , my brother has two 27s . darn boats ride great in bigger water.

I would take the $7K and move on.... Look for the next project. Flipping Boats is a great way to experience many different makes and models but also a way to eventually step into that model you have always dreamed about....... Just saying, 4k is a damn good profit. But that is just me... Back to the Boat itself. It is a very nice looking boat. I have always been a fan of that era boats. I love the classic lines.
