After nearly 20 years, the current owner of Henchen Marina is looking to retire from the retail and lodging aspects of the business. Therefore, this prime waterfront property on Henderson Bay is for sale.
When he acquired the business, John ran it as its prior owners had: a bait and tackle store that also carries Henderson Harbor gifts, Henderson Harbor apparel, snacks, soft drinks, beer, and gas and diesel to both commercial and private boats. Over the years he added a variety of marine supplies to the store’s offerings and services such as downrigger repairs. Plus the six cabins and spacious apartment over the store provide lodging to anglers and vacationers who visit the area.
Interested in owning waterfront property but changing or adding to the business model? If so, this location has excellent potential. Henderson Harbor could use any or all of the following:
- A seasonal breakfast/lunch restaurant: Currently we have no breakfast eatery in the harbor and no place that serves lunch seven days a week.
- Boat rentals: Only one other marina rents boats in Henderson Harbor, and they often can’t satisfy the demand. We rented kayaks for a number of years and there is still a small market for those as well.
- An expanded Henderson Harbor gift and apparel shop: The market for HH apparel has definitely grown during the past 19 years. Many visitors to the area purchase these items to bring home to loved ones, plus summer residents and yacht club members check out the new styles we’ve offered each year. Jackets, sweatshirts, and T-shirts for both adults and children do very well.
- Day, dinner and/or sunset cruises: The scenery is lovely, and the sunsets here are stunning.
Prefer to privatize the property? Well, you couldn’t ask for a better view!
