Marina Partners has officially launched as a fully integrated marina development and operations firm focused on delivering high-performance drystack and waterfront assets. Formed by the team behind ASAR and GCM Contracting Solutions, the firm brings a proven, execution-driven approach shaped by firsthand experience planning, building and operating complex marina projects.

The company’s foundation is rooted in the successful delivery of Gulf Star Marina, the world’s first marina to fully integrate ASAR’s multiple-deep automated storage and retrieval system. That project demonstrated how advanced automation and resilient structural design can transform marina operations by increasing capacity, improving safety, reducing environmental impact and enhancing the overall boater experience.

Drystack-first in its approach, Marina Partners specializes in the planning, development and turnkey delivery of marina projects from early feasibility and design-build construction through automation integration, operational readiness and long-term value optimization. The firm supports both automated and traditional marina configurations, tailoring each solution to site conditions and financial goals. Backed by deep ASAR automation expertise and a cradle-to-grave delivery model, Marina Partners also supports marina management planning and remarketing strategies, providing owners, developers and investors with resilient, future-ready marina assets in high-demand waterfront markets worldwide.
