Default sailboat charters

The cost of the boat (and other costs) vs. your return on the investment.
$20 x 6 = $120... doubtful you can work 7-day weeks, and how many months per
year? That's why you don't see it very often. :-)

Just thinking about starting a sailboat charter in a nice tourist area
(ie Pawleys Island, S.C.) where people are taken on a tour for a
couple of hours for 20.00 each. Not looking for a get rich quick
thing, but something people would enjoy doing without breaking the
bank. Just trying to get a discussion going on this and any
suggestions would be helpful. I understand about having a sailboat
captains license (at least a 6 pack), insurance business license, ect.
Just wondering what other drawbacks there are as you don"t see this
very often.
