About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 4
- Employees
- Currently owner operated but have multiple potential employees available
- Facilities & Assets
- Dominate the Clearwater market with this high-yield, turn-key luxury boat rental business. Boasting the #1 organic spot on Google, this operation generates more demand than its current 3-vessel fleet can handle, frequently turning away customers due to full capacity. This creates a massive, de-risked opportunity for a new owner to immediately increase profits simply by adding more vessels to the rotation.
The sale includes a premium fleet featuring two 2023 Bennington tritoons and a luxury 2020 Harris Sunliner tritoon, all professionally maintained with documented service history. Most importantly, the business is "moated" by Clearwater City Commercial Permits.
Operating with a 72% EBITDA margin. This lean business is projected to gross $301k+ with $220k in Seller’s Discretionary Earnings (SDE). With an immaculate 5-star reputation, dedicated marina slips, and private parking, this is a "turn key" currently operating in Florida's most popular boating destinations. - Website

- Market Outlook / Competition
- This digital "real estate" provides a constant flow of leads with zero advertising spend. The demand is so high that we regularly turn away customers and refer them elsewhere because our current fleet is at 100% capacity.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The growth potential for this operation is immense and de-risked by its current market dominance. Because we hold the #1 organic ranking on Google, the business generates a surplus of leads that currently exceeds our fleet capacity; adding 2–3 more vessels would result in an immediate revenue increase with zero additional marketing spend. Furthermore, there is a massive opportunity to scale the captained charter side of the business. We currently require a one-week notice for captains, forcing us to turn away a high volume of same-day requests. By simply placing a captain on staff or retainer, a new owner could likely triple charter revenue by capturing that existing, untapped demand. Between fleet expansion and full-time charter availability, the infrastructure is perfectly positioned for a buyer to significantly multiply the current $301k gross revenue.
