Our Story

Aboard MIRAGE, every sail along Cape Town’s Atlantic Seaboard is an invitation to experience the city from a different perspective. With the ocean as your backdrop and one of the world’s most iconic coastlines unfolding around you, MIRAGE offers various daily sails and bespoke private charters designed to feel effortless, memorable and entirely your own.


Founded in 2015, MIRAGE is operated by Mark Wehrley and Tara Sharbona, who bring a combined 50 years of sailing experience. Together with their highly qualified crew, they have created a world-class day sailing experience defined by considered hospitality, seamless service and an intuitive understanding of what makes time on the water truly special.


Contemporary in design and generous in scale, MIRAGE has been crafted for year-round enjoyment with specifically the Cape in mind. A glass-enclosed main deck offers all-weather comfort, while the panoramic upper deck and flybridge invite uninterrupted views across the Atlantic. On board, guests can enjoy snacks and small plates prepared in our fully equipped galley and two large grills plus a fully stocked bar of premium spirits and local estate wines. There are also three stylish restrooms and a collection of thoughtful amenities designed to make every sail as comfortable as it is memorable.
