Highly Popular Charter/Fishing Boat Business Now Offered For Sale at Bargain Price (May 2011)

Beardsley Theobalds are offering an exciting business for sale which will be of much interest to anyone keen on sea angling. With health considerations for the vendors, they have decided to reduce the price of the business from the original £90,000 to £70,000 to encourage an early sale. Buying the business now will enable the purchaser to ‘catch’ the summer trade.

Operating out of Penzance harbour, the licensed fishing vessel ‘Viking’ is popular with angling clubs who come to use the boat from all over the U.K. and also, in the high season, with visitors to the region who are looking for a few hours fishing or who simply want to watch the seals. The business was established in 1967 and has been operated by the present owner, Keith Richards, since March 2006. The vessel has been sailed and maintained to a high standard by an employed professional skipper. M.V. Viking is a custom built Lockin 33 licensed to operate up to 60 miles offshore and comes fully equipped right down to rods & lines for customers to use. A quayside booking facility comes with the business together with advertising boards and leaflets and also a website. Offers around £70,000 are now invited.
