- Market Outlook / Competition
- The tours are outperforming the fishing, and are very easy to do: sunsets, beach & dolphin tours. There are only 88 boats are listed on BoatBooker.com in my area. I also have the only charter offering Stone Crab trips; which are only 3 miles off the beach to pull stone crab traps. One claw is removed from each legal crab, and the clients keep the claws. Just started this service and is working well, I charge $550 for this 3-hour excursion and burn little fuel.
- Opportunities for Growth
- The growth potential is very high; I average only 4 trips per month due to my work schedule. Greater availability could easily get 5 times this amount.
