Cruise / Fishing Charter Business

This is a unique opportunity and a great lifestyle business. One of the few charter vessels operating in Rotorua. Situated on stunning Lake Tarawera with its thermal springs, great walks, picturesque scenery and its famous Rainbow Trout.

The boat is in a current Martime NZ MOSS system through to 2028. Last out of water survey was July 2023. She is a Kelsall KSS designed composite power cat and was built to survey and launched in 2006. She has been on Lake Tarawera since 2012. Operates from one of NZ’s iconic lodges with pick ups from other locations for clients not staying there. Surveyed for 20 plus 2 crew. Cruises at 10 to 12 knots.

Hand over would consist of training and knowledge of the lake to the new operator as well as the option to operate from the lodge. Opening day for the trout season is October 1.
