Traditional Gulet, ready made business EUR 300.000 per year. Was built in 1996 by traditional family builders who operated their own boats for luxury cruises in the Aegean Sea between the Greek islands and the Turkish mainland.
In 2007 the boat was sold to a family, who has a blue cruise online company, continue to operate it, by a local captain & crew for 5 more years under the USA flag.
In 2012 the boat was moved to Greece and was used for family pleasure only. Starting from the summer of 2014, the owner decided to enter his daughter’s business with the boat and make up to 8 weeks per year of cruises for customers and 4 – 6 weeks per year for family and friends. Since 2017 they have been sailing mostly in the Ionian Sea. Every 2 years, the boat is taken out of the water for 3 months for maintenance.
In 2012, the boat underwent a major renovation, during which much of its mechanical equipment was upgraded or added, such as a bow thruster, completely new diesel plastic tanks, a completely new solar field, etc.
In 2021, the cabins were completely removed and redesigned, and the entire interior was made of top quality.
As this is partially commercial and partially private, everything in this boat is made to the top standards and without compromise on quality.
In 2018 the boat was transferred to operate in a Greek NEPA company, under a Greek commercial flag. There are several advantages, such as tax-free diesel, etc, that Nepa enjoys.
Since it’s a bit challenging for the owner to operate the boat that’s why he decided to sell the vessel. The boat has a significant customer base, and once a serious buyer may be interested in it, we will discuss the details.
