An outstanding opportunity to acquire an approved, fully managed marine logistics operator in one of Australia’s largest export ports.

Established in 2012 by an experienced Coxswain/Master, RC Marine runs its own fleet across Gladstone Harbour and offshore — crew transfers, stores and spares to ships, tugs and LNG facilities, dive support, barge transport and biosecurity waste removal.

Ticketed skippers, crew and documented systems run the day-to-day. The owner is retiring, leaving vessels, approvals and client relationships in place.

Business Highlights
▪ 5% year-on-year revenue growth over 3 years
▪ Vessels, barge, plant & equipment included: $2,840,000
▪ 8 vessels in survey; Chaco and Colando OVID approved
▪ Preferred supplier to Toll Marine Logistics, Smit Lamnalco and Santos
▪ Bechtel audited; MEP, MSP and SMS frameworks in place
▪ 24/7 operation with thousands of transfers and tie-ups completed
▪ Under full management — not owner-dependent

Operational Strength
Mature and professionally run — not a start-up or turnaround:
▪ Ticketed skippers and crew
▪ Owned fleet with survey, approvals and maintenance history
▪ Frameworks aligned to LNG and shipping client audit standards
▪ 24/7 on-call response and EFTPOS onboard

A buyer can buy a vessel tomorrow, but not the fourteen years of surveys, OVID approvals, Bechtel audits and preferred supplier listings. That approval chain transfers with the business.

Strategic Appeal
▪ Marine and port operators seeking an approved Gladstone footprint
▪ Industrial, civil or logistics groups adding marine capability
▪ Investors seeking asset-backed cash flow in critical infrastructure
▪ Owner-operators wanting leadership continuity

Gladstone is Queensland’s largest multi-commodity port. Every vessel needs lines run, crew changed and stores delivered — volumes move with the cycle; the requirement does not.

Price: $2,950,000
