Ferry Cruise Business For Sale

Business description

Forget Hamilton Island – Here is an excellent opportunity to acquire one of the best lifestyle jobs you could dream of.
How would it feel living and working in the beautiful surrounds of Rainbow Beach with magnificent Coloured Sand Cliffs, Surf Beach, Hang Gliding, Horse Riding, Scuba Diving, Bush Walking the National Park & Inland Lakes, 4 Wheel Driving and the Gateway to World Heritage Listed Fraser Island.
How would it feel to start work at 7.00 am and be home in time for the midday movie or a game of golf and all you have to do is skipper the Ferry from Rainbow Beach to Tin Can Bay to Hand Feed the Wild Dolphins whilst also spotting Dugong, Turtles, Sea Eagles and Stingrays on the trip.
After this a Leisurely Cruise around the bay taking in the views over water to Fraser Island, Carlo Sandblow, Great Sandy Straits and Inskip Point.
Not too bad – you say. This is a genuine opportunity to continue on a very well established Cash Flow Business that has been operating for the past 10 years catering to just about every Tourist and Backpacker that comes to the Cooloola Coast.
As mentioned – you can be home by midday, but that doesn’t mean you couldn’t expand the service to include functions on board, sunset cruises or private charter work.
The Vessel is an Ex-Moreton Bay Ferry measuring 10.6 metres in length and has seating for 45 people including the crew. Although this business can be run by one person. It is powered by a 60 Horse Power Iveco Diesel that uses 6 litres per hour and cruises at 6 knots. It is surveyed to smooth waters up to 40 knot winds. The vessel has just been slipped at Tin Can Bay, so all in order for the new owner.
Also included in the purchase price is a Toyota Commuter 14 seat mini bus to transport the passengers from their accommodation to Carlo Point and a Mitsubishi Delica 7 seater for the small trips. Both vehicles are well sign written advertising this great water adventure.
You will be impressed with the income generated from this unique business and the current owners are only selling due to retirement.
