Lee & Associates South Florida Senior Vice President, Calum Winsor, and Investors Realty Services brokered the sale of the Marina between the seller, Water’s Edge Marina, LLC, and the Buyer, Safe Harbor Marinas. Winsor said the buyer ultimately closed on the property with all-cash and quick closing terms. The sale includes over 4.15 acres of upland property and building improvements, 3.47 acres of submerged wetlands, and additional control over a submerged land lease of the adjacent property to maximize usage and accessibility to the facility from the direct Atlantic Ocean waterfront.

 The property features 123 slips with floating and fixed concrete docks, designated transit slips, refueling docks and can dock vessels up to 130 feet with a controlling depth of up to 9 ft offering the only docking and refueling opportunity for larger vessels between Miami and Key West.
