Unhappy Mirage 34 bites the dust

No it is not mine but it is sad none the less.

There was a nice Mirage with twin 300OB's for sale on THT site not too long ago. You can see it here: Bummer 34 Mirage has to go. - The Hull Truth - Boating and Fishing Forum_)

I think it sold for close to 60K or so but the really sad part is when the new owner was bringing her to her new home...this happened:

Driver loses boat in accident on I-10|WOAI: San Antonio News

I bet you can pick this one up cheap from the insurance co.

I can tell you this is no easy boat to trailer on the highway. I have a triple axle trailer for mine as well and without a really good towing vehicle (like a duramax dualie set up) this is a white knuckle deal at high speeds. I would not take mine on the highway with a standard truck, you need a towing vehicle. I have pulled it out and made very short runs with it but ...I just can't imagine driving over the Bourne bridge with this...That is why I paid to have it shipped up from FL.
