The station received modernization in 2011 with a Response Boat-Medium that replaced its previous vessel in service since 1977. This equipment upgrade marked an important refresh of the station's operational capabilities.
Each May, the station welcomes visitors during an open house event featuring search and rescue demonstrations with helicopter support from Air Station Atlantic City.
