Sale of existing business: The seller is retiring and will sell boat alone or for the same price he will transfer his existing very profitable business which has more bookings then he can handle. The seller will transfer to suitable buyer phone numbers, website, forward bookings, accounts department, fish quota contacts and so on. All this represents easily the best business of its type we have seen in New Zealand. The vessel is constantly busy and bookings are turned away every month.
