I have a 9 Meter SS that I might consider selling. Unfortunately no pictures as it's shrink wrapped currently. PM me if you're interested.

Mark, I haven't weighted it , a matter of fact it hasn't been in the water in a year and 5 month . Superstorm sandy destroyed my house and I didn't finish The boat .I had to build A new home. Motors are back in, drives are off but are painted like new and ready to go on it . interior is out of it but interior is brand new. For the right price I might sell it I just spend to much money on the house now I have to sell some stuff.

Like Mark said, layup can make a big difference, early Mag sports were heavier than later models. With 2 more feet and 6" more freeboard I would guess the Mirage would be 6000-6200. Maybe 6500 with some gas and gear, not that far off from 7000lbs.

Cig, I bought an old 32' Midnight Express that was originally from your area I think. It is grey with silver/gold/black stripes and had arneson drives. Do you know it? Love any info.

Thanks - Marshall

Yes. I know the boat very well. I've driven the boat a few times, it's one cool boat. It was a stagger, dry exhaust, merc 400 cyclones (495) hp built by innovation marine when new. The boat was dialed in at lake x before delivery to my neighbor back in 1982. Funny enough he's still my neighbor today lol. When it was sold a few years back from my area it was still in original trim and needed nothing. The boat was nice, sat inside most of its life and when it left here it still had under 75 original hrs on the complete boat. Motors were original, trailer, paint, exhaust etc. fresh water it's whole life. I was sad to see the arnesons go. How does the boat look today.
