SINGLE MARINA INVESTMENT
Single marina investment is the classic investment in the marinas. One of our core competencies is searching for and identifying marina investments tailored to our client’s needs and expectations. You define the criteria, and we provide the perfect match.
With in-depth knowledge of the marina business, we have a well-maintained and efficient network and the most effective methods for acquiring or selling marinas.
Marine Project handles all management and control responsibilities throughout the marina’s life cycle, from management to sale, based on our core philosophy of a long holding period. With the capacity to respond quickly to market movements in mind, we undertake continual assessments, assess possibilities and dangers, and, if necessary, decide to sell at short notice.
The final decision is up to the client whether he wants from us just to find an opportunity and participate in the sale or the whole marina’s life cycle with us.
DEAL BY DEAL
By this topic we mean the fusion between one marina investment and a portfolio investment. You define the criteria, and we provide the perfect match.
This investment opportunity involves bringing together multiple clients who share the same needs. This type of investment allows you to determine the criteria that meet yours. However, on the other hand, it will enable you to share the risk with someone else. Indeed, the distribution of ownership is expressed as a percentage based on the capital invested and the value of the entire project.
In a project of this type, in most cases, the Marine Project takes over the marina’s operations with the consent of all investors. We even call this a carefree investment. Professionals take over your operations, and you only have to reap the profits at the end of the year.
PORTFOLIO INVESTMENT
The portfolio investment is particularly interesting in most cases institutional clients primarily due to the volume of investments. Our portfolio offers to represent a stable and diversified source of income with a low lump risk. Our portfolio management seeks to optimize returns while minimizing risk. Effective portfolio management is the most effective approach to increasing your wealth.
Marine Project has extensive knowledge and experience, especially with these types of investments. We are willing to help our clients with a diversified portfolio throughout the Mediterranean and beyond. The existing marinas are distributed across several countries, ensuring further geographical diversification.
Investing in the portfolio with Marine Project allows you to have selective acquisition, comprehensive in-house capabilities, and a disciplined exit strategy

FIX & FLIP | Method of building equity in which cash flow generation plays no role.
The Fix & Flip method is particularly interesting for many investors, as it offers the possibility of a fast exit and to achieve disproportionate profits in the short term.
In the classic marina investment, a marina is built in order to operate it in the long term (buy/build and hold). In this case, the investor plans to hold the property in his own portfolio for the concession period in order to generate a continuous cash flow through rental and further lease income. Any financing costs are usually covered by the regular income from the operating business.
The Fix & Flip method is different. Here, the aim is to generate maximum profit in the shortest possible time. However, a considerable amount of know-how and market experience is necessary for the success of such marina investments. In this scenario, the profit is generated from the difference between the purchase price of a marina with good development potential and the subsequent sale price of the restructured marina after the optimisation process has been completed, and the creation of a corresponding added value.
The following points are essential in this respect. On the one hand, the investor must find high potential and at the same time moderately priced targets in preferred locations, which are undervalued with regard to the realistically achievable market price after maximisation of turnover and enhancement of the processes. On the other hand, one should have comprehensive knowledge of the yacht and marina business in order to be able to correctly assess the condition of the property and the necessary restructuring and marketing costs. In addition, knowledge in the area of concession law is equally important and in principle indispensable.
A so-called balloon loan is suitable as financing for the purchase of the marina and, if necessary, the planned restructuring costs. In this case, the entire loan amount is only repaid at the end of the loan term (e.g. after 1 to 5 years). The shares of the corresponding MP regional company (SPV) serve as collateral for the investor. The investor concludes the corresponding loan agreement with MP Development Holding, which manages the loan and passes it on to the regional company as required. After the eventual restructuring and resale of the marina regional company, the realised profit is shared between the investor and MP Development Holding in the ratio x/y%. If the investor takes over a marina into its own portfolio, MP Development receives x% of the total volume of the transaction as a success commission.
The individual steps for a flawless and successful acquisition:
- The investor contributes the required transaction capital via a balloon loan to MP Development, which creates a corresponding client account.
- The money is directly credited to the individual client account
- MP Development establishes a regional company in the target country and provides it with liquidity.
- MP Regional identifies a target marina. After a final „go“ from the MP Development investment comity, MP Regional acquires the marina or participates in the tender required for this purpose. Immediately after acquisition, MP regional starts the restructuring process of the target marina and thus prepares for a possible resale or takeover under own management by the investor.
- Profitable sale to a suitable buyer (Marina Operator). The proceeds of the sale, together with the profit made, flow to MP Regional.
- MP regional transfers the sales proceeds back to the investor’s individual account with MP Development, with the agreed success commission retained. The commission is transferred to MP Development at the same time (6a). With the payment of the credit balance of the investor’s account to the investor, the loan would be repaid in full.
If instead of a profit commission, a profit share was agreed in the event of a successful sale, MP regional transfers the proceeds of the sale back to the investor’s individual account with MP Development, with retention of the agreed profit share.
