REMARKS
“Halcyone” was purchased by her current owners in 2000 from the original owner. After purchasing the boat, her owners invested in a new suit of sails and have also upgraded such items as the mainsail cover, cooker, sprayhood and instruments. Her last professional survey was in November 2020 and we understand that she has been epoxy coated below the waterline by the Tide Mill Yacht Harbour, Woodbridge. The Mirage 2700 is a surprisingly roomy boat with standing headroom and 2 cabin layout and makes an ideal family cruiser for the East Coast.
