Following 2011 season, the 3rd strongest for business and likely the best overall for fishing in the past 16 years, we are confident that this turn-key business opportunity will be the right fit for someone looking for a lifestyle change or solid investment until they are ready to operate hands on. After hosting approximately 30,000 anglers over the years, this business is poised to either run status quo, or expand in the vibrant Marine Tourism market. Due to ongoing health issues, we are now forced to make adjustments to the asking price to expedite an ownership transaction. A very extensive package of information, assets and financials is prepared and ready for perusal by qualified parties.
