Market Competition and Expansion:
The 'competition' is for events, sight-seeing, tourism. The southwest Florida market offers a variety of activities for visitors and residents- boating, golf, fishing, hiking, restaurants, entertainment, etc. However, there are limited offerings for waterway cruises for holidays, special events, relaxing brunch/lunch/dinner cruises, sightseeing. There is enormous opportunity to develop new business model by expanding cruise options and hosting other events at the dock. The southwest Florida population growth continues to provide a tremendous new customer base. Additionally, new hotels, upgraded event center, new restaurants, and new construction (homes/condominiums/apartments) are all new opportunities to reach more visitors and residents.
