Oceanport will solicit bids and select a company to operate the marina on a concession basis for the 2013 boating season. The company selected will also make repairs to marina. The marina's floating docks and boathouse were damaged by Hurricane Sandy last October.

The marina is a 3.9-acre parcel located at Oceanport and Riverside Avenues in Oceanport. The property consists of a 71-slip marina and boat launch ramp on Oceanport Creek, a 2,600-square-foot boat house, two administrative buildings and off-street parking.
