The Mirage 27 (Perry) is a recreational keelboat[1][2] built by Mirage Yachts in Canada.

Designed by Robert Perry, it is a derivative of the Perry-designed Mirage 26, modified with a reverse transom and a transom-mounted rudder.[3] It replaced the Mirage 26 in the company line.[1][4][3] The fibreglass hull has an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel.[5][6] It has a hull speed of 6.24 kn (11.56 km/h).[1][3]

It has a masthead sloop rig.

It is not related to the Mirage 27 designed by Peter Schmidt.[1][5][6][7][8]
