It will depend on how salty it is as the salt affects the density. 1 US cup = 236.588238 ml The density of pure water is exactly 1 gram per ml at 4 °C, and so 1 cup would weigh exactly 236.588238 g, or 8.345 oz (1 gram = 0.0352739619 ounces). The more salt you add, the higher the density, and the more 1 cup of salt water would weigh. Ocean water is only slightly more dense than pure water (approx. 1.026 grams per mL), although its density actually depends on how deep you are (it varies between 1.025 at the surface to 1.028 below 1000 meters). And so, to a close approximation 1 cup of ocean water would weigh 242.7 g, or 8.55 oz.

The best way would be to weigh it and then weigh out tenths. Otherwise you could note that 1 cup is 240 ml and one tenth of that is 24 ml. Since salt is not a liquid I think the weight idea works MUCH better.
