Broker Remarks
1977 Mirage 28 – Exceptionally Well Presented Example
We are delighted to offer this beautifully presented Mirage 28, a classic family cruising yacht that has been exceptionally well cared for and presents in very good condition both inside and out for her age.
The Mirage 28 is a well-proven and popular family cruiser, offering a surprisingly spacious interior for a 28ft yacht, together with a comfortable cockpit and easily handled sailing characteristics. Her practical layout makes her equally suited to relaxed family cruising or couples looking for a manageable yacht for exploring the coast.
What really sets this particular example apart is her condition. She has clearly benefited from careful ownership and ongoing maintenance, and she presents exceptionally well for a yacht of this age. The exterior has been well maintained and the interior is clean, tidy and inviting, giving her a considerably fresher feel than many yachts of a similar vintage.
Stepping aboard, the quality of care is immediately apparent. The accommodation has been kept in excellent order, with a comfortable saloon, practical galley, separate heads and good sleeping accommodation for her size.
She is also a particularly attractive proposition for anyone looking for an affordable family cruiser without taking on a major restoration or refurbishment project. Much of the hard work associated with bringing an older yacht up to a good cruising standard has already been undertaken, allowing her new owner to concentrate on enjoying her rather than simply working on her.
The Mirage 28's fin keel and well-balanced sailing characteristics make her a capable and enjoyable coastal cruiser, while her manageable size makes her relatively straightforward to handle and berth.
For anyone looking specifically for a Mirage 28, or a well-presented, affordable family cruiser, this is an example that deserves serious consideration. Her age should not be confused with her condition – she is a remarkably well-kept yacht that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
Viewing is highly recommended.
