Nope, I bought this boat from H2o on OSO its was a fresh water boat from Lake St Clair area. I think I know the one your talking about was it white with red and blue stripe ? If so I know someone that went to look at it to buy and said it was a ROACH. After buying a boat from a fresh water environment I will never buy another saltwater boat especially from this area (Sandy) you just don't know if its been down.

Jim is this the Mirage?? I remember the guy who bought it tried to tow it with this Porsche SUV out of New York.. Mark

Mark, yea... that's the one. I remember looking at it back in 2006??
Anyways, i guess that's the one that was parted out and is in sad shape, for sale as just a hull.

Cig28, boat is looking great!

Always loved Mirages since I seen one at the Miami show back in 79. Where did the hull design come from does anyone know ? Is it another Magnum bottom with some new topsides?

E Cortes owned Mirage, his son was on oso a while back and said that the mirage was not popped from a magnum or cigarette, he did work for Don Aronow for sometime, His son also said that the Mirage was his fathers own design.
