Luxury Gulet Existing Business For Sale In Patras Greek NEPA company

This traditional Gulet, built in 1996 by a family of skilled craftsmen who specialized in luxury cruises around the Aegean Sea, generates a ready-made business opportunity worth EUR 300,000 per year. Originally used for luxury cruises between the Greek islands and the Turkish mainland, the boat was a testament to the builders’ expertise and passion.

In 2007, the Gulet was sold to a family that owned a blue cruise online company. They continued to operate the vessel with a local captain and crew under the USA flag for five more years. Then, in 2012, the boat was relocated to Greece and used exclusively for family pleasure. By 2014, the owner decided to incorporate the boat into his daughter’s business, offering up to eight weeks of cruises for customers each year, while reserving four to six weeks for family and friends. Since 2017, the Gulet has primarily sailed in the Ionian Sea and undergoes maintenance every two years, with the vessel being taken out of the water for three months each time.

A major renovation took place in 2012, significantly upgrading the Gulet’s mechanical equipment. Additions included a bow thruster, completely new diesel plastic tanks, and a new solar field, ensuring the vessel was both modern and reliable. Further enhancing its luxury, in 2021, the cabins were completely removed and redesigned, with the entire interior crafted to top-quality standards, reflecting the boat’s dual-purpose use for both private and commercial endeavors.

In 2018, the boat was registered under a Greek NEPA company and began operating under a Greek commercial flag, bringing several advantages such as tax-free diesel. Despite the vessel’s strong customer base and the lucrative business it generates, the owner has decided to sell due to the challenges of managing the boat. Detailed discussions will be held with serious buyers interested in acquiring this exceptional vessel.
