Deferred Drydock and Special Survey costs: Navios Partners' vessels are subject to regularly scheduled dry docking and special surveys which are generally carried out every 30 or 60 months to coincide with the renewal of the related certificates issued by the classification societies, unless a further extension is obtained in rare cases and under certain conditions. The cost of drydocking and special surveys are deferred and amortized over the above periods or to the next drydocking or special survey date if such date has been determined.

Costs capitalized as part of the drydocking or special survey consist principally of the actual costs incurred at the yard and expenses relating to spare parts, paints, lubricants and services incurred solely during the drydocking or special survey period. For each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2014, the amortization expense was $146. For each of the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2013, the amortization expense was nil.

The costs of dry docking and special surveys was included in the daily management fee of $4.65 per owned Ultra-Handymax vessel, $4.55 per owned Panamax vessel and $5.65 per owned Capesize vessel through December 31, 2013. In October 2013, Navios Partners amended its existing Management Agreement with the Manager, a subsidiary of Navios Holdings, to fix the fees for ship management services of its owned fleet at: (a) $4.00 daily rate per Ultra-Handymax vessel; (b) $4.10 daily rate per Panamax vessel; (c) $5.10 daily rate per Capesize vessel effective from January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2015; and (d) $6.50 daily rate per container vessel effective from the delivery through December 31, 2015. Drydocking expenses under this agreement is reimbursed by Navios Partners at cost at occurrence.

The accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial statements of Navios Partners are unaudited, but, in the opinion of management, contain all adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of results, in all material respects, Navios Partners' condensed consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2014 and December 31, 2013 and the condensed consolidated results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The footnotes are condensed as permitted by the requirements for interim financial statements and, accordingly, do not include information and disclosures required under US GAAP for complete financial statements. All such adjustments are deemed to be of a normal, recurring nature. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the full year. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in Navios Partners' Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2013.

During the six month period ended June 30, 2014, Navios Partners' accelerated $22,010 of amortization of the Navios Pollux favorable lease intangible due to a change in its useful life following the termination of the credit default insurance policy. The additional amount of $53 of accelerated amortization incurred in the six month period ended June 30, 2014, relates to the expiration of the intangible assets associated with two vessels of our fleet.

In relation to Navios Partners' new suspension agreement, entered into in June 2013, the amount of $3,205 of the Navios Melodia favorable lease term that corresponded to the suspension period until April 2016 was written - off in the statement of income under the caption of Depreciation and amortization.

Intangible assets subject to amortization are amortized using straight line method over their estimated useful lives to their estimated residual value of zero. The weighted average useful lives are 8.7 years for favorable lease terms charter out.

Total long-term borrowings, net of unamortized discount	$ 523,429	$527,966

In June 2013, Navios Partners completed the issuance of the $250,000 Term Loan B facility. The Term Loan B facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 425 basis points and has a five-year term with 1.0% amortization profile and was issued at 98.0% (at a discount of $5,000). Navios Partners used the net proceeds of the Term Loan B facility to:( i) prepay $101,614 of the July 2012 Credit Facility; (ii) fully repay the outstanding balance of $41,225 of the August 2012 Credit Facility; (iii) deposit $98,179 to be held in escrow, to partially finance part of the acquisition of four vessels, of which $47,000 was released in September 2013 for the acquisition of the Navios Joy, $17,750 was released in October 2013 for the acquisition of the Navios Harmony and $33,429 was released in January 2014 for the acquisition of the Navios La Paix and the Navios Sun; and iv) cover fees and expenses.

On November 1, 2013, Navios Partners completed the issuance of a $189,500 add-on to its existing Term Loan B facility. The add-on to the Term Loan B facility bears an interest rate of LIBOR plus 425 basis points and has a five year term, with a 1.0% amortization profile and was issued at 100%. Navios Partners used the net proceeds to partially finance the acquisition of five container vessels.

As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding balance of the Term Loan B facility including the add-on was $431,615, net of discount of $3,968 and it is repayable in 16 quarterly installments of $1,097, beginning in September 2014, with a final payment $418,032 in June 2018.

The Term Loan B facility is secured by first priority mortgages covering certain vessels owned by subsidiaries of Navios Partners, in addition to other collateral and is guaranteed by each subsidiary of Navios Partners. The Term Loan Agreement requires maintenance of a loan to value ratio of 0.8 to 1.0, and other restrictive covenants customary for facilities of this type (subject to negotiated exceptions and baskets), including restrictions on indebtedness, liens, acquisitions and investments, restricted payments and dispositions. The Term Loan Agreement also provides for customary events of default.

In June 2013, Navios Partners amended the July 2012 Credit Facility and prepaid $101,614 from the proceeds of the Term Loan B facility. The prepayment was applied in partial settlement of the next 16 installments. As of June 30, 2014, the outstanding balance was $99,028 and is repayable in 14 installments, plus a final payment, in various amounts during the term of the July 2012 Credit Facility consisting of $496 (three quarterly installments), $3,456 (nine quarterly installments), $2,346 (one quarterly installment) and $5,867 (one quarterly installment) with a final payment of $58,223. The July 2012 Credit Facility bears interest at rates ranging from 180 to 205 bps per annum (depending on the loan amount compared to the security value) plus, depending on the length of the interest period, either LIBOR or the actual cost of funds. The refinancing of this facility was accounted for as a debt modification in accordance with ASC470 Debt and an amount of $1,319 was written-off from the deferred financing fees during the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

In June 2013, Navios Partners fully repaid the outstanding balance of $41,225 of the August 2012 Credit Facility from the proceeds of the Term Loan B facility. The refinancing of this facility was accounted for as a debt extinguishment in accordance with ASC470 Debt and the remaining unamortized balance of $707 was written-off from the deferred financing fees.

As of June 30, 2014, the total borrowings under the Navios Partners' credit facilities were $530,643, net of original issue discount.

As of June 30, 2014, Navios Partners was in compliance with the financial covenants of all of its credit facilities.

Amounts drawn under the July 2012 Credit Facility are secured by first preferred mortgages on certain Navios Partners' vessels and other collateral and are guaranteed by the respective vessel-owning subsidiary. The July 2012 Credit Facility contains a number of restrictive covenants that prohibit or limit Navios Partners from, among other things: incurring or guaranteeing indebtedness; entering into affiliate transactions; charging, pledging or encumbering the vessels; changing the flag, class, management or ownership of Navios Partners' vessels; changing the commercial and technical management of Navios Partners' vessels; selling or changing the beneficial ownership or control of Navios Partners' vessels; and subordinating the obligations under the credit facilities to any general and administrative costs relating to the vessels, including the fixed daily fee payable under the management agreement. The July 2012 Credit Facility also requires compliance with a number of financial covenants, including: (i) maintain a required security amount of over 140%; (ii) minimum free consolidated liquidity of at least the higher of $25,000 and the aggregate of interest and principal falling due during the previous six months; (iii) maintain a ratio of EBITDA to interest expense of at least 5.00 : 1.00; (iv) maintain a ratio of total liabilities to total assets (as defined in our credit facilities) of less than 0.65 : 1.00; and (v) maintain a minimum net worth to $250,000. It is an event of default under the loan facilities if such covenants are not complied with.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS [ABSTRACT]

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

NOTE 7 — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The carrying value amounts of many of Navios Partners' financial instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and amounts due to related parties approximate their fair value due primarily to the short-term maturity of the related instruments.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument:

Cash and cash equivalents: The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated balance sheets for interest bearing deposits and money market funds approximate their fair value because of the short maturity of these investments.

Borrowings: The carrying amount of the floating rate loans approximates its fair value.

The estimated fair values of the Navios Partners' financial instruments are as follows:

	June 30, 2014		December 31, 2013
	Book Value	Fair Value	Book Value	Fair Value
Cash and cash equivalents	$ 183,516	$ 183,516	$ 35,346	$ 35,346

Fair Value Measurements

The estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis, categorized based upon the fair value hierarchy, are as follows:

Level I: Inputs are unadjusted, quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that we have the ability to access. Valuation of these items does not entail a significant amount of judgment.

Level II: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level I that are observable for the asset or liability through corroboration with market data at the measurement date.

Level III: Inputs that are unobservable. The Company did not use any Level 3 inputs as of June 30, 2014.

SEGMENT INFORMATION [Abstract]

Segment Information

NOTE 9 — SEGMENT INFORMATION

Navios Partners reports financial information and evaluates its operations by charter revenues. Navios Partners does not use discrete financial information to evaluate operating results for each type of charter. As a result, management reviews operating results solely by revenue per day and operating results of the fleet and thus Navios Partners has determined that it operates under one reportable segment.

The following table sets out operating revenue by geographic region for Navios Partners' reportable segment. Revenue is allocated on the basis of the geographic region in which the customer is located. Drybulk and container vessels operate worldwide. Revenues from specific geographic region which contribute over 10% of total revenue are disclosed separately.

Revenue by Geographic Region

Vessels operate on a worldwide basis and are not restricted to specific locations. Accordingly, it is not possible to allocate the assets of these operations to specific countries.

Income Taxes	6 Months Ended
Income Taxes	Jun. 30, 2014
INCOME TAXES [ABSTRACT]
Income Taxes	NOTE 10 — INCOME TAXES Marshall Islands, Malta and Liberia do not impose a tax on international shipping income. Under the laws of Marshall Islands, Malta and Liberia, the countries of the vessel-owning subsidiaries' incorporation and vessels' registration, the vessel-owning subsidiaries are subject to registration and tonnage taxes which have been included in vessel operating expenses in the accompanying consolidated statements of income. In accordance with the currently applicable Greek law, foreign flagged vessels that are managed by Greek or foreign ship management companies having established an office in Greece are subject to duties towards the Greek state which are calculated on the basis of the relevant vessel's tonnage. The payment of said duties exhausts the tax liability of the foreign ship owning company and the relevant manager against any tax, duty, charge or contribution payable on income from the exploitation of the foreign flagged vessel. Pursuant to Section 883 of the Internal Revenue Code of the United States, U.S. source income from the international operation of ships is generally exempt from U.S. income tax if the company operating the ships meets certain incorporation and ownership requirements. Among other things, in order to qualify for this exemption, the company operating the ships must be incorporated in a country which grants an equivalent exemption from income taxes to U.S. corporations. All the vessel-owning subsidiaries satisfy these initial criteria. In addition, these companies must meet an ownership test. The management of Navios Partners believes that this ownership test was satisfied prior to the IPO by virtue of a special rule applicable to situations where the ship operating companies are beneficially owned by a publicly traded company. Although not free from doubt, management also believes that the ownership test will be satisfied based on the trading volume and ownership of Navios Partners' units, but no assurance can be given that this will remain so in the future.

Investment In Navios Europe	Jun. 30, 2014
Investment in Navios Europe Inc. [Abstract]
Investment In Navios Europe Inc.	NOTE 13 — INVESTMENT IN NAVIOS EUROPE INC. On October 9, 2013, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners established Navios Europe and have ownership interests of 47.5%, 47.5% and 5.0%, respectively. On December 18, 2013, Navios Europe acquired ten vessels for aggregate consideration consisting of (i) cash consideration of $127,753 (which was funded with the proceeds of a $117,753 senior loan facility (the “Senior Loan”) and loans aggregating $10,000 from Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners (in each case, in proportion to their ownership interests in Navios Europe) (collectively, the “Navios Term Loans”) and (ii) the assumption of a junior participating loan facility (the “Junior Loan”) with a face amount of $173,367 and fair value of $71,929 as of December 31, 2013. In addition to the Navios Term Loans, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners will also make available to Navios Europe (in each case, in proportion to their ownership interests in Navios Europe) revolving loans up to $24,100 to fund working capital requirements (collectively, the “Navios Revolving Loans”). On an ongoing basis, Navios Europe is required to distribute cash flows (after payment of operating expenses, amounts due pursuant to the terms of the Senior Loan and repayments of the Navios Revolving Loans) according to a defined waterfall calculation as follows: • First, Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners will each earn a 12.7% preferred distribution on the Navios Term Loans and the Navios Revolving Loans; • Second, any remaining cash is then distributed on an 80%/20% basis, respectively, between (i) the Junior Loan holder and (ii) the holders of the Navios Term Loans. The Navios Term Loan will be repaid from the future sale of vessels owned by Navios Europe and is deemed to be the initial investment by Navios Partners. Navios Partners evaluated its investment in Navios Europe under ASC 810 and concluded that Navios Europe is a VIE and that they are not the party most closely associated with Navios Europe and, accordingly, is not the primary beneficiary of Navios Europe based on the following: • the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the economic performance of Navios Europe are shared jointly between (i) Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners and (ii) and the Junior Loan holder; • while Navios Europe's residual is shared on an 80%/20% basis, respectively, between (i) the Junior Loan holder and (ii) Navios Holdings, Navios Acquisition and Navios Partners, the Junior Loan holder is exposed to a substantial portion of Navios Europe's risks and rewards. Navios Partners further evaluated its investment in the common stock of Navios Europe under ASC 323 and concluded that it has the ability to exercise significant influence over the operating and financial policies of Navios Europe and, therefore, its investment in Navios Europe is accounted for under the equity method. As of June 30, 2014, the estimated maximum potential loss by Navios Partners in Navios Europe would have been $1,083, which represents the Company's portion of the investment of $505 plus the Company's portion of the carrying balance of the Navios Revolving Loans of $578 and does not include the undrawn portion of the revolving loans. As of June 30, 2014, the Navios Partners' portion of the Navios Revolving Loan outstanding was $578. Refer to Note 12 for the terms of the Navios Revolving Loans.

Cash Distributions And Earnings Per Unit

NOTE 14 — CASH DISTRIBUTIONS AND EARNINGS PER UNIT

The partnership agreement of Navios Partners requires that all available cash is distributed quarterly, after deducting expenses, including estimated maintenance and replacement capital expenditures and reserves. Distributions may be restricted by, among other things, the provisions of existing and future indebtedness, applicable partnership and limited liability company laws and other laws and regulations. The amount of the minimum quarterly distribution is $0.35 per unit or $1.40 per unit per year and is made in the following manner:

• First, 98% to all unitholders;

Thereafter there is incentive distribution rights held by the General Partner, which are analyzed as follows:

		Marginal Percentage Interest in Distributions
	Total Quarterly Distribution Target Amount	Common Unitholders	General Partner
Minimum Quarterly Distribution	$0.35	98%	2%
First Target Distribution	up to $0.4025	98%	2%
Second Target Distribution	above $0.4025 up to $0.4375	85%	15%
Third Target Distribution	above $0.4375 up to $0.525	75%	25%
Thereafter	above $0.525	50%	50%

On January 24, 2014, the Board of Directors of Navios Partners authorized its quarterly cash distribution for the three month period ended December 31, 2013 of $0.4425 per unit. The distribution was paid on February 14, 2014 to all holders of record of common and general partner units on February 10, 2014. The aggregate amount of the declared distribution was $32,573.

On April 25, 2014, the Board of Directors of Navios Partners authorized its quarterly cash distribution for the three month period ended March 31, 2014 of $0.4425 per unit. The distribution was paid on May 13, 2014 to all holders of record of common and general partner units on May 9, 2014. The aggregate amount of the declared distribution was $35,474.

Navios Partners calculates earnings per unit by allocating reported net income for each period to each class of units based on the distribution waterfall for available cash specified in Navios Partners' partnership agreement, net of the unallocated earnings (or losses). Basic earnings net income per unit is determined by dividing net income by the weighted average number of units outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per unit is calculated in the same manner as net income per unit, except that the weighted average number of outstanding units increased to include the dilutive effect of outstanding unit options or phantom units. Net loss per unit undistributed is determined by taking the distributions in excess of net income and allocating between common units and general partner units on a 98%-2% basis. There were no options or phantom units outstanding during the three and six months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013.

The calculations of the basic and diluted earnings per unit are presented below.

Other Income	NOTE 15 — OTHER INCOME During the three months ended June 30, 2014, Navios Partners received cash compensation of $ 17,779 from the sale of a defaulted counterparty claim to an unrelated third party. Navios Partners has no continuing obligation to provide any further services to the counterparty and has therefore recognized the entire compensation received immediately in the Statement of Income within the caption of “Other income”. As of March 25, 2014, the Company terminated the amended credit default insurance policy. In connection with the termination, Navios Partners received compensation of $30,956 (which was received in April 2014). From the total compensation, $1,170 was recorded immediately in the statement of income within the caption of “Revenue”, which represents reimbursements for insurance claims submitted for the period prior to the date of the termination and the remaining amount of $29,786 was recorded immediately in the statement of income within the caption of “Other income”. The Company has no future requirement to repay any of the lump sum cash payment back to the insurance company or provide any further services. As part of a new suspension agreement entered into in June 2013, Navios Partners agreed to receive an upfront payment of $10,000 covering hire revenues for the suspension period until April 2016. The amount of $10,000 was recognized immediately in the statement of income under the caption of “Other income” since the Company has no future requirements to refund the payment.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements [Abstract]
Recent Accounting Pronouncements	NOTE 16— RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS The FASB issued ASU 2014-08 “Presentation of Financial Statements and Property, Plant and Equipment” changing the presentation of discontinued operations on the statements of income and other requirements for reporting discontinued operations. Under the new standard, a disposal of a component or a group of components of an entity is required to be reported in discontinued operations if the disposal represents a strategic shift that has (or will have) a major effect on an entity's operations and financial results when the component meets the criteria to be classified as held-for-sale or is disposed. The amendments in this update also require additional disclosures about discontinued operations and disposal of an individually significant component of an entity that does not qualify for discontinued operations. The new accounting guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2014. Navios Partners plans to adopt ASU 2014- 08 effective January 1, 2015. The FASB issued ASU 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" clarifying the method used to determine the timing and requirements for revenue recognition on the statements of income. Under the new standard, an entity must identify the performance obligations in a contract, the transaction price and allocate the price to specific performance obligations to recognize the revenue when the obligation is completed. The amendments in this update also require disclosure of sufficient information to allow users to understand the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flow arising from contracts. The new accounting guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2016. Early adoption is not permitted. Navios Partners is currently reviewing the effect of ASU No. 2014- 09 on our revenue recognition.
