So it crossed my mind as I was driving home tonight, just as a forward, I get all sorts of stupid ideas that pop into my head all the time, some good and some bad. However one day one of these ideas will make me money.
Anyway the idea that popped was what if I bought a boat, got the necessary things to take out dive charters, and did dive charters during the summer?
I am a newly certified diver, and don't even have a pleasure craft license, So starting from the basics, once I have a pleasure craft license and a boat just the right size to hold divers and gear. what next? What kind of things would one need to think of? How much insurance would one need?
The vision that I pictured in my head was me taking my dive buddies out to a site, enjoying a dive, coming back up for some bbq and not paying some crazy charter fee to do it all. I've always wanted a small business, this might be it, even if I know nothing about boats (currently lol).
