make sure when you are compareing the Mirage to the Laser, you note if it is a Mirage, or a Mirage Plus. the early Mirage had a lot of blade surface, and didn't work well with outboards( it was designed for the bravo drive). The redesigned Mirage Plus was designed to work with outboards and sterndrives. I know when I worked at a dealer that sold new SeaCrafts, they came with Mirage Plus from the factory, only problem was the motors were mounted too high and they would blow out in turns or when trying to get on plane in sloppy seas. When we dropped the engines down one hole, they wouldn't turn up to spec, we had to drop them down to the next pitch. When you prop your boat out, make sure it will perform in all conditions, not just at wot
