When you consider the major expenditures for a tourist on vacation, food ranks right up there; eating out is expensive. Yet when accompanied by a boat ride with friends it is a great value. Eating on the water is a tourist’s delight. Whether it’s a sunset cruise with dinner, or an afternoon sightseeing tour with lunch, dining on the water is a special treat.

Special occasions like weddings, parties and business meetings are icing on the cake for an AquaBiz Dinner Boat owner. Its 49-passenger capacity is big enough to make a handsome profit, yet small enough to not give that profit back during the slow off-season. The “Shrimp Louie’s” can come with a full kitchen and electrical power plant, or a downsized warming kitchen geared more for the catering business model. Custom designing its owner’s menu is our specialty.

Of course the “Shrimp Louie’s” is a Coast Guard approved vessel, yet one that can be tailored thematically to a particular restaurant image, i.e. New Orleans gingerbread, perhaps traditional old Florida, or classical Victorian.

Priced at $425,000, the “Shrimp Louie’s” is an affordable, turnkey business that can operate anywhere on the Intracoastal Waterway from the Florida Keys to the Panhandle. It can expand an existing restaurant’s operation by giving it an on-the-water operation, or be an independent restaurant without an upland facility.
