About the Business
- Years in Operation
- 3
- Facilities & Assets
- An exceptional opportunity to acquire Legendary Jet Skis Marathon LLC, a well-established and highly-rated jet ski tour company. This turnkey business includes a fleet of 10 jet skis (3 operational, 6 repairable, 1 for hull only) and 17 kayaks (10 Crystal Kayaks, 7 Ocean Kayak Malibu II). Facilities feature 8 EZ floating docks, onsite 500-gallon fuel tank, a check-in kiosk, and an office trailer. Long-term marina lease with slips available for expansion. Rare insurance coverage for daily/weekly rentals. Also including 2 double jet ski trailers.
- Website
- https://legendaryjetskis.com/
- Market Outlook / Competition
- This established business is located in the heart of Marathon's booming tourism market. The primary market consists of individuals and families seeking on-the-water activities such as jet skiing, kayaking, and other watersports. There are 3 competitors within a 2 mile radius. However, Legendary Jet Ski's strategic location at Porky's Bayside Restaurant & Marina gives it a key advantage, as it attracts customers who are already visiting the popular restaurant on-site min-golf course.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The current owners are not able to operate the business. This business offers prime growth for a hands-on owner-operator. Repairing non-operational jet skis would greatly boost fleet capacity. Expansion options include adding fishing charters, sandbar, sunset, and tiki cruises; guided kayak eco-tours through Marathon's unique mangrove ecosystems, night LED clear kayak tours; direct-to-residence jet ski rentals, photo packages, merchandise, and cross-promotions with nearby businesses. Year-round tourism ensures steady demand and high profit potential.
