Seller's Description
1982 Robert Perry designed US Coast Guard documented mirage 33. Fast, responsive and comfortable racer cruiser that is ideal for family weekends or the cruise of a lifetime in the Caribbean.
Berths for 6 (v-berth double, settee single, quarter berth single , and convertible table/double) Previous owner had started refit which I finished and I have been enjoying this boat for the past 5 years. I was preparing the boat for a Caribbean cruise so it is well outfitted, but my family has lost interest in that particular idea.
Refit included: -new upper back stay, and side stays (forestay was replaced before I bought it) -0 hour fresh water cooled yanmar 2gm20f which currently has less than 200 hours of total time on it -new fuel system including new 20 gallon tank -balmar serpentine belt kit for alternator -stainless exhaust elbow - new sea strainer, exhaust system and raw water system -200ah Battleborn lithium house batteries -victron automatic battery to battery charger for house bank -victron mppt controller and 100w solar panel -victron BMV-712 battery monitor -new 12v panel, wiring and breakers -new cabin fans and led lightbulbs - new cockpit cushions -portlights and hatches rebedded -rebedded all deck hardware -new freshwater pump and plumbing -new manual hand pump for head sink -new cockpit shower sprayer
The boat is actively being used and could sail anywhere you want today. But there are a few known projects: -the hull needs to be polished, I started doing it but ran out of time before launch -general cleaning, I ran out of time before launch and was not able to fully detail the boat so it needs a good cleaning, wax and polish. The engine compartment is covered in belt dust, the lithiums ate the original belt before I upgraded to serpentine -the cabin sole needs to be refinished - the wiring needs some neatening up -the 120v system is not in service, I am on a mooring so never felt the need. -the steering pedestal needs paint
Equipment: 2 mains: coastal with 2 reefs in good condition. heavy offshore with 3 deep reefs in excellent condition (1 season of use) roller furling genoa , approx 115%
- bimini with zip off sides to make a tent (sides are still packaged from the canvas shop) -dodger, never used and still packed from canvas shop
Electronics: -garmin plotter -LCJ ultrasonic wind transducer -Raymarine wheel pilot -si-tex ais -dsc VHF with built in gps reciever -nmea 2000 network (plotter, ais, wind) -datamarine speed and depth
galley: -origo oven/stove (boat is plumbed for propane) -cold machine 12v /120v fridge -double sink
ground tackle: -35 pound mantus on 100’ of 5/16 chain and 150’ of 5/8 8 plait -danforth on 3 100’ 3 -strand -the boat has a windlass and wiring for the windlass but it is not connected misc: -davits -spinnaker pole (no spinnaker sail) -safety equipment (chemical and electronic flares, fire extinguishers, basic life jackets, lifesling, etc) -stove fuel -silverware, pots, etc -spares for engine, lines and halyards, plumbing, etc

Calculations
- Hull Speed

8.0 kn
Classic: 6.93 kn
Hull Speed
The theoretical maximum speed that a displacement hull can move efficiently through the water is determined by it's waterline length and displacement. It may be unable to reach this speed if the boat is underpowered or heavily loaded, though it may exceed this speed given enough power. Read more.
Formula
Classic hull speed formula:
Hull Speed = 1.34 x √LWL
A more accurate formula devised by Dave Gerr in The Propeller Handbook replaces the Speed/Length ratio constant of 1.34 with a calculation based on the Displacement/Length ratio.
Max Speed/Length ratio = 8.26 ÷ Displacement/Length ratio.311
Hull Speed = Max Speed/Length ratio x √LWL
- Sail Area/Displacement
-
16.9
Sail Area / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the power of the sails relative to the weight of the boat. The higher the number, the higher the performance, but the harder the boat will be to handle. This ratio is a "non-dimensional" value that facilitates comparisons between boats of different types and sizes. Read more.
Formula
SA/D = SA ÷ (D ÷ 64)2/3
- SA: Sail area in square feet, derived by adding the mainsail area to 100% of the foretriangle area (the lateral area above the deck between the mast and the forestay).
- D: Displacement in pounds.
- Ballast/Displacement
-
37.7
<40: less stiff, less powerful
Ballast / Displacement Ratio
A measure of the stability of a boat's hull that suggests how well a monohull will stand up to its sails. The ballast displacement ratio indicates how much of the weight of a boat is placed for maximum stability against capsizing and is an indicator of stiffness and resistance to capsize.
Formula
Ballast / Displacement * 100
- Displacement/Length
-
217.2
200-300: moderate
Displacement / Length Ratio
A measure of the weight of the boat relative to it's length at the waterline. The higher a boat’s D/L ratio, the more easily it will carry a load and the more comfortable its motion will be. The lower a boat's ratio is, the less power it takes to drive the boat to its nominal hull speed or beyond. Read more.
Formula
D/L = (D ÷ 2240) ÷ (0.01 x LWL)³
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds.
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- Comfort Ratio
-
18.8
<20: lightweight racing boat
Comfort Ratio
This ratio assess how quickly and abruptly a boat’s hull reacts to waves in a significant seaway, these being the elements of a boat’s motion most likely to cause seasickness. Read more.
Formula
Comfort ratio = D ÷ (.65 x (.7 LWL + .3 LOA) x Beam1.33)
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
- LWL: Waterline length in feet
- LOA: Length overall in feet
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- Capsize Screening
-
2.2
>2.0: better suited for coastal cruising
Capsize Screening Formula
This formula attempts to indicate whether a given boat might be too wide and light to readily right itself after being overturned in extreme conditions. Read more.
Formula
CSV = Beam ÷ ³√(D / 64)
- Beam: Width of boat at the widest point in feet
- D: Displacement of the boat in pounds
Notes
MIRAGE 33 and 35 are similar.
The MIRAGE 35 has a reverse transom, weighs a few hundred pounds more, and two feet longer than the 33 foot model. See the MIRAGE 35 for more details.
