have been told a few stories that it was laid up as a light weight hull but has had repairs over the years. iv looked closely at the hull and it seems to be in v good condition with no indications of any major repair.

if anyone knows anythin about this boat i would be interested to know.
Sorry mate, it seems I managed to hijack your thread. I recall Just a Mirage was owned by Phil Warry maybe 10 years ago. He later went on to a silver/grey Formula I believe.

regards Rob

Phil did own it in the nineties, and really looked after it, he had a 175 on the back with a top speed of 63mph.

thats a reasonable speed from a 175hp,

cheers guys, thats the info i was after, so with the right set up and a 200 on the back it has potential to be a fast boat!

got big plans for it, been playing on photoshop and have some awesome ideas.

watch this space!!!

The only people wearing ties at Whispers apart from us door staff were the police to clear the bodies after slappy hour !!

The younger generation really missed out on important education like that place on a full moon
