The Mirage 2700 represents the final evolution of the smalldisplacement cruising philosophy developed by Thames Marine at their Canvey Island facility. Launched in the late 1970s as a successor to the Mirage 26, the 2700 was designed to provide a more refined, modern aesthetic while maintaining the robust fiberglass construction that had become the builder's hallmark. Unlike some of its contemporaries that sacrificed interior volume for racing lines, the Mirage 2700 was unapologetically a family cruiser, maximizing its 26foot 11inch length to offer amenities typically found on 30footers of the era. Built during the peak of the UK’s fiberglass boatbuilding boom, it remains a common sight in the estuaries of the East Coast and the marinas of the South Coast, serving as a testament to the durability of Ray Walsh’s design vision.
