Re: It came to me in a dream....
I don't know what the charter business situation is like down your way, but here in the northeast (Mass and RI anyways) is filthy loaded with the charter business. Way too much competition and there's no way you'd get close to that kind of money for a V20 charter. The people paying that money are going out on 30' + sportfishing boats that have a lot more amenities and comfort than a V20 can offer. I wouldn't want to spend the money to obtain a captains license then try to make a go at it with a V20. Don't get me wrong, someone with the right ambition could do it on the side up here even with a smaller boat with only a six pack license and do okay as a side business. But, the rates are considerably less.
I'd pass on this one. Sorry to say, but I'd also pass on the idea of building a business on the V20 production as well. I just don't have that kind of disposable cash to invest without the probability of any kind of substantial return and the possibility of a loss of investment.
Of course, this is strictly my perspective on these ideas and is not meant to imply that they aren't good ideas. Just not right for me. I wish everyone well that has the energy and enthusiasum to take on these kind of ventures though. 8)
