Overview MIRAGE is a member of a very elite group of yachts that have historically pushed the envelope with regards to speed and quality. This heritage includes such famous yachts as Moonraker, Octopussy and most recently The World Is Not Enough. Due to Frank Mulder's unique design and Heesen's reputation for quality, MIRAGE continues to stand out as one of the most unique yachts currently available on the market. To the first point, she has a cruise speed of 35 knots and top speed of over 40 knots, allowing you to transit large distances in a fraction of the normal cruising time. To the second point, Heesen Shipyards has the distinction of being the first Dutch builder to construct aluminum hulls for yachts and built the first megayacht to surpass 50 knots. MIRAGE was built to and still maintains her classification status with American Bureau of Shipping (ABS), Nippon Kaiji Kyokai (N.K.K.), and MCA. These rigorous standards allow MIRAGE to be commercially registered for charter anywhere in the world, and have allowed her to stand the test of time since her launch in 1992. With a five-stateroom layout, on-deck master, skylounge and only 5 feet of draft, MIRAGE is the ultimate shallow draft Bahamas or Mediterranean flyer! This yacht is absolutely for sale!
