You won't find NJ specific, as posted the WIKI has a list of the US Marine channels [they are common - east coast, west coast, Gulf, etc]

However you might want to put in the International channels, as many of the ships do/will use them, even tho they are [on paper] prohibited in the US of A.

Also check the Wiki for the CG LMR [ you will need a P25 Scanner] and enter all of them as they can/will pop-up on any of them, from time-time.

Remember, it's winter so it's quiet time and unless you are near an active Port with Tankers/Cargo the traffic will be minimal.

Considering there were ONLY 4 "Public Correspondence" channels

http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/?pageName=apps18 here is the info from the CG on the International channels.

Many of the International channels are Duplex channels and are in the US of A - Public Safety [156 Mhz - lower end] & Railroad / Transportation bands [160/161 Mhz]

And even a few still use the AIS channels for On-Board Rptrs, from the days when these were Voice channels.

A lot of the international frequencies are the inputs to the Marine Operator. They always been a PITA. We would find out which vessel and then call them to tell them the are operating on a restricted channel.

...and if the foreign registered ship were outside the 12mile limit he would probably tell you to take a jump! :)

Like they would really give a rancid rat's rectum about what you might say or think? If they hear you, you may, however, learn a few new choice words about your maternal lineage (to say the least). Self appointed Radio Kop wanna-be's need not apply and will be verbally folded, spindled and mutilated.
