HISTORY

Built in 1979, motor yacht MIRAGE started out life as the 48m/157’5 DARIA. In 2007, she embarked on an extensive refit at the Pendennis Shipyard which saw her benefit from a number of major structural and technical upgrades. The exceptional results of this refit were noted throughout the yachting industry.

MIRAGE has an entirely new, contemporary interior, with all guest and crew areas being completely redesigned. Most recently, a brand new state of the art bridge was installed as well as a full external paint job to ensure MIRAGE looks her best for years to come.

AWARD WINNING

MIRAGE’s exceptional refit was highly commended at the World Superyacht Awards 2016 after picking up the coveted Neptune trophy in the Refitted Yachts category. Receiving the most votes in the judges’ secret ballot, MIRAGE impressed with the scope and quality of her refit as well as with her new gymnasium and spa pool. 

INTERIORS

MIRAGE’s interior represents intricate styling by Design Unlimited. The well-appointed layout of the living and sleeping areas on board is complimented by sleek, contemporary styling. Contrasting wenge and fabric panels create warmth and texture alongside a selection of fine furnishings and fabrics, while an eclectic collection of hand-picked art works adorn the walls.

EXTERIORS

Her outside spaces have been equally well considered, providing wide open areas for guests to relax and enjoy life at sea. A covered al fresco dining area is available for elegant evening meals surrounded by spectacular views, and there is also the option of a more casual dining area if preferred. MIRAGE also boasts a luxury large mosaic jacuzzi on her sundeck, surrounded by sunpads; so get ready to watch the sun set while relaxing with your favourite cocktail…

Jackie is from Gothenburg, Sweden. Where she grew up surrounded by the ocean and hearing all the sailing stories from her grandfather, who was a captain.
Her love for the ocean and boats have been a huge part of her childhood, naturally guiding her towards a career in yachting.
Jackie brings a warm, ambitious, and adventurous energy to the team. She works and strives to go above and beyond for both our guests and the crew.

Her best memory in the industry so far was arriving in Corsica for the first time and it was a moment that really cemented her passion for this lifestyle. Currently working as a stewardess and trained masseuse she is really enjoying the mix of guest-facing service, wellness, and the dynamic rhythm of the yacht life.

When she is not onboard, she is always staying active—whether that’s running, playing soccer, or hitting the gymnasium. Jacquline thrives on movement and loves challenging herself both mentally and physically.

One thing that always reminds her of home is a plate of Swedish food shared with friends and family.

Prior to yachting, Jackie worked as a management consultant and is currently studying online for a Law degree, an experience which she is very proud of.

Jackie´s future goal is to continue balancing her academic and professional journey with yachting, where she can combine service, wellness, and adventure all in one.

Jackie is a beautiful asset to our team, she is always smiling and happy to help the team and our guests where and whenever she can. To sum her up into five words Jacquline is kind, ambitious, adventurous, sporty and helpful.
