UK & International Marine Business Sales

Long established and wholly owner operated, this marine engineering services business was originally founded in 1985 and was acquired by our clients back in 2005. The business is located in South Devon and is synonymous with the surrounding area, being based at a profile marina on a beautiful coastal estuary, from where it benefits from working as part of a local marine trade cluster alongside boat dealerships, equipment retailers and marine service providers.

It offers local berth holders, leisure customers based on the river and commercial trade clients nearby, a range of products and services including outboard and inboard engine and gearbox repairs and maintenance, engine re-powers and rebuilds and sale of engines and spare parts including stock items such as oils and antifoul. The business is also a recognised diagnostic specialist and the only distributor worldwide of technical manuals for a particularly renowned engine.

Whilst not a significant element of the business it does have several outboard engine and small boat dealerships, including electric outboards, which represents a growth opportunity for a new owner interested in expanding this aspect of the business. It also retails and services propellers, drive shafts and outdrives, electrical and plumbing and heating systems, and generators.

Now for sale due to the intended retirement of our clients. Reasonable handover support and training will be provided to ensure a successful transition of ownership.

Offered for sale exclusively via First Peninsula Marine and no direct approach should be made. To protect the owner’s commercial interests confidential sales details are only available to NDA Registered Buyers.
