1999 Dyer 29 Trunk Cabin

The Dyer 29 is an icon of New England style with it’s sweeping sheerline, dark blue hull, and gleaming varnish.  The 29 has ridden to success on its classic hull design over it’s many years of production.  She’ll maintain a comfortable cruising speed in fairly snotty conditions, because her fine entry parts the seas, leaving behind a subdued patch of water. The boat's substantial keel protects the prop and rudder and gives her excellent directional stability.  Powered by her single Yanmar 250 hp diesel for smooth, reliable and economical operation.  The Side Power bow thruster takes the worry out of docking a single engine boat.

This 29 may be the best one ever built and is certainly the best available in terms of condition, equipment and maintenance.  There are no disappointments or surprises with MIRAGE, she’s been maintained and upgraded with an open checkbook approach by her experienced owners.

You don't come across a boat like Mirage often.  She's enjoyed the best of care, upgrades, and maintenance by the same owners since new.  Everything is right about this boat, she'll stand out in any harbor or yacht club but is also a serious sea boat for multiple uses.

Highly recommended and worth your consideration.
