Edwards, F: Making Money with Boats

More than ever, charter operators must adhere to good business practices to transform water-related fun into profitability. The first part of this book is dedicated to the business side of chartering, with chapters on starting a business, accounting, insurance, marketing tools, the marketing plan, and the business plan. Recent changes in the requirements for licensing, documentation, vessel inspection, and bareboat chartering are demystified, making this book a must-have for anyone seeking to make money with a boat, including parasail operators, dive boat skippers, excursion boat owners, and many others.
