The Mirage 30 SX is a Canadian sailboat, that was designed by Bruce Kirby as a racer and first built in 1985.

The boat was built by Mirage Yachts in Canada, but it is now out of production.

The Mirage 30 SX design is not related to the Mirage 30, but is instead a lightweight development of the Kirby 30, with a deeper elliptical shaped keel.

The Mirage 30 SX is a small racing keelboat, built predominantly of fiberglass. It has a fractional sloop rig, an internally-mounted spade-type rudder and a fixed fin keel. It displaces 5,900 lb (2,676 kg).

The boat has a draft of 5.89 ft (1.80 m) with the standard keel. It is fitted with a Bukh DB 8 diesel engine.

The boat has a PHRF racing average handicap of 114 with a high of 108 and low of 120. It has a hull speed of 6.58 kn (12.19 km/h).
