Shark River area marina questions

[rwp2101]

Hopefully you can educate me here... I'm boat shopping and have some questions about keeping a 30-36' (yes, I'm hoping to convince my wife the 36' is the right size because it's "safer") center console in the Shark River. I also have some general marina questions given that myself, my father and all of my uncles have always all trailered our boats so have no marina experience.

I read up on this thread: http://www.njfishing.com/forums/show...k+river+marina

And wondered:
- How annoying is it to keep your boat at a marina west of the rt 71 bridge?
- Is there just the one marina east of the rt 71 bridge that I see on google earth? I've always fished out of raritan bay or barnegat bay so I'm not super familiar with the area.
- For concerns about storms and if I don't plan on having a trailer for the boat, I assume a marina with rack storage is a must?
- What else should I be thinking about here?

Thanks everyone in advance!
