New Mirages

[tunnelmike]

What happened to them ? Can he make the Quartermaster ? I was lookin forward to seein some '06's for the Jungle Run. I'd like a heavier or let's say stronger one to ride the river. My Drag lay up wont take too much river ridin' before I start to have issue's. I wish I could have gotten Parkers. It took some abuse and didnt have a crack !!! Thanks Mike

[V8astrovan]

need a 3 seater parker find me 1 by next weekend???

[tunnelmike]

there was supposed to be one at the RBR I think it was. Who was the one talkin' about the new contractor?? It's no secret I like Mirages, almost as much as Parker !

[WILDMAN]

Tunnelmike, are you wanting a quartermaster, or a 3 seater? If you want a 3 seater like Parkers old boat I have a couple of the 18 Liberators. An all white unrigged 2006, and the 2005 Flag boat. $14,500 for the flag boat minus motor.

[tunnelmike]

How close to the newer style River Racer bottom is the Liberator ?? My race boat is too light to keep beating up running the rivers. But, I would like a duplicate laid up to withstand George on a bad day that I could set up like my race boat so the seat time would benefit my racing without tearin' up the race rig. If the Liberators are the same on the bottom I would be intrested. Thanks Mike

[V8astrovan]

hey randy do your boats have the same style dash as parkers old boat?? or is it more like a collins built mirage

[WILDMAN]

Mike, the bottom is like the new style but the outside sponsons have two small steps in them. The flag boat is a standard weight boat and has had a 300 Mariner on it all summer with no problem. The new ones have an even heavier transom and is tied into the top deck much heavier also. I had them laid up that way because we've been putting 300's on most of them now. The new one is all white and ready for paint. It also has the bigger seats from the 21 Liberator. Same seats as the yellow four seater on my website.
V8, the dash is kind of like the new Mirage 3 seaters, but the guages wrap around , more like a cockpit. The Mirage dash is flat. Here's a pic of the bigger style seats and dash. Of course the 3 seater only has one front seat.

To actually answer your question....I just talked to Mike two days ago and he's building boats. He's got a new QuarterMaster getting ready to go in the mold. E-mail me and I'll help you. He's tough to get a hold of. He'd sell a lot of boats if people could actually reach him!

............... and MAYBE if he didn't have the personality of a jackass that might help some too. I've never been able to figure why people will go to a lot of trouble to try and do business with somebody that makes it not only difficult, but unpleasant, when there are other people in the business who actually act like they care about their customers or potential customers.

Sam, you said "he's building boats". Is HE actually building em in house now, or still just subing em out to somebody else?
