Welcome aboard. I've always like the lines of the sugar sand boats.

@Bilmon Welcome aboard!! I had a Sugar Sand for several years. Was looking to upgrade and was hoping that Sugar Sand would continue to build boats after they sold the company. Looks like they still haven't starting to build new boats now. So, I ended up with the Yamaha due to the love of the jet drive. Here is a pic of what my Sugar Sand looked like. Your Mirage looks great!

@Bilmon Welcome! Glad you saw my link over there and found your way here! Nice looking boat!

Please let us know if there is Anything else we can do to make you welcome!

 

[farrelltravis]

For the price range the Tango I had was in, it was an awesome boat! I bet your Mirage is nice too. I would have stayed with Sugar Sand, but was looking to upgrade the size of the boat. The Yamaha fit the bill for that.

What was their largest, a Calias - or something like that? I can't remember now....

Welcome Bilmon! Great to have a SugarSand here. Always been interested in them and the Merc drive!

Thanks Magic,wish I was in your area ,sick of snow and subzero.Have alot of family out there.andvisit often.Love your lakes have rented a pontoon[yea I know] on sauaro a couple of times.Would love to bring my boat but 1600 miles each way would be a killer.Apache looks like a fantastic lake if not for the road in.

I just added Sugar Sands to the list of Makes you can chose from! Pity it doesn't allow a logical break down of Models based on another selection!

How many Sugar Sands models are there?
