Broker's Comments
Whoever said that boats are a compromise must have been referring to this boat.
On the minus side the hull would benefit from repainting and all Mirages are slightly different due to the standard of their fit out.
Now for the plus points. She had a new mast in the nineties, new engine 2001, new sails and stacker pack in 2011 and has comprehensive navigation equipment.
I have known this boat and all her owners since she was built, even helping the first owner fitting her out.
Thames Marine the builder of the Mirage 28 had a good reputation for producing quality boats.
She is offered at a price to sell. If you require a good cruising boat at a budget price please arrange a viewing.
