I'm looking to invest in a boat in Chicago to offer tours, private events, celebrations, and similar experiences.
I need a freelancer to carry out detailed research covering the following areas:
Boat/Yacht Purchase Costs – Options, pricing ranges, recommended vessel types and sizes suitable for tours/events.
Legal & Regulatory Requirements – Federal, state, and city rules for commercial passenger vessels, inspections, licenses, registrations, permits, and insurance requirements for operating in Chicago.
Captain & Crew Costs – Licensing requirements, hiring options, typical rates/salaries, and any additional staffing needs.
Associated Fees & Operating Costs – Mooring/slip fees, maintenance, insurance, fuel, taxes, annual permits, and other running expenses.
Market & Competition Analysis – Overview of existing tour operators and private charter companies in Chicago, pricing comparisons, and opportunities for differentiation.
The final deliverable should be a clear, well-organised research document that summarises all findings, includes sources, and highlights key considerations for launching this business.
Please only apply if you can provide structured, thorough research and have experience with business feasibility or industry analysis.
