For more than 20 years this business has been putting groups on the water. Around 14 years ago the owner moved it from Cape Tribulation to Sydney Harbour, and it has built a strong name and excellent reviews since.

The vessel is a 13.5 m party catamaran with a front deck, a large cabin and a rooftop lounge, plus a giant slide and ocean swimming pool. Goodwill, plant and equipment are all included.

Work is already lined up. A supply contract covers Saturday charters from 1 November 2026 to April 2027, plus 6 to 8 Sunday charters, with an option to extend to a three year term.

The owner is stepping back from skippering and will provide full training and ongoing assistance after settlement.

A private mooring with walk-on, walk-off access keeps daily operations simple. The twin engines and generator are around three years old.

Recent spend includes a new fire suppression system ($12,000), a new sewage system compliant with the NSW Sewage Management Program, and the rooftop lounge (about $30,000).

A Safety Management System and training sheets are in place. The owner's day-to-day role is mainly managing booking enquiries and agent follow-ups, with casual crew running the vessel.

Whom the Business Is For

This suits a hands-on owner-operator. A skipper's license removes the cost of hiring a skipper, and the vendor recommends the owner be on board to keep guest experience at its best.

The sale is subject to an approved survey report, and buyers may engage their own surveyor.
