It is situated in a basin minutes from the Atlantic Ocean, Delaware Bay and Intercoastal Waterways. This family owned and operated business has been serving the fishing and pleasure boat community since 1971 when Bill and Maryann Hinchcliffe hung the Hinch Marina sign outside and tied up their first boat. In 1999 their son Chuck and his wife Mary took over the reins and decided to overhaul the marina. They began with dredging the basin, replacing all the docks and adding Off the Hook Bait and Tackle Shop. They continue to enhance and modernize the marina and tackle shop each year to ensure all the accommodations a boater would desire are met.
