Suntex Acquires Discovery Bay Marina Through Joint Venture

Suntex Marina Investors LLC (Suntex), the largest standalone recreational marina owner in the United States by marina count and boat slips, announced that Discovery Bay Marina in California has been acquired through its joint venture.

Discovery Bay Marina is a full-service marina in the San Joaquin Delta. Located in the heart of Discovery Bay, California, the marina has concrete docks, haul and launch capability, bathrooms and showers, laundry facilities, an onsite restaurant, fuel dock, boat brokerage, third-party boat club and rentals, shopping and marine services for tenants. This property serves both inland and coastal boaters with wet slips for vessels venturing to the San Francisco Bay, and dry stack storage for smaller boats that spend days in the San Joaquin Delta. Each slip has access to electricity and water. The marina consists of 266 in-water slips and 450 dry storage slips for vessels from 20 to 100 feet. The property also offers trailer storage.

Discovery Bay was established in the early 1970s as a mostly weekend and summer resort community. Today, Discovery Bay has evolved into a thriving year-round home for over 14,000 residents who enjoy small-town living against the backdrop of over 1,200 miles of Delta waterways.
