Hi there,

I have just recently bought a boat and Im trying to find out as much info on it as I can as Im a novice at boating.

Its a 15ft Global Mirage, number 89-167.

I would like to know the following if anyone can help.

What year
was it made?

Do they suffer any major issues?

What do you think of them as a boat?

Plus any other tips you fell would help a novice like me.

Thanks very much for your help.

James​

Well, we have a few UK members here, and one of them may be able to assist you in this. However, most of us have knowledge of US boats. Perhaps there is a boating forum in the UK that might get you faster results.

I did a quick Google search, and all the references to Global Mirage boats were in the UK.

For the year, if your boat has a H.I.N. number. Kind of like a VIN for your car, but it's on the starboard transom, just around the waterline. The last two numbers will be the year of the boat.
Good Luck

Thanks folks, I cant find a H.I.N. number on it, the only number I can find is on the front near the steering, on a plate saying Global International 89-167.

Way over my head, cant even find a company called Global International in the UK now.
