A nonprofit that owns a marina and 6.2 acres of land on the Rancocas Creek in Riverside, Burlington County, will auction the property at the end of April.

The land and riparian rights of Lightning Jack's Marina "provide a future opportunity as a residential redevelopment site," according to sales material from Max Spann Real Estate & Auction Co., which is selling the marina for Lightning Jack's Foundation, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit based in Brick Township, Ocean County, where it operates another marina on the Manasquan River.

A restaurant and apartment also is on the marina site, which offers boaters access to the Delaware River about two miles west on the creek.
