that your boat was in full compliance with all Federal and State boating laws during a safety check for that year. Best of all every Vessel Safety Check is 100% Free of charge!

What if I Don't Pass?

If your boat does not pass, no citation is issued at that time. Instead, you are provided a written report in how to correct any discrepancies.

Why Receive a Vessel Safety Check?

Safety! The peace of mind that your boat meets federal safety standards and that in an emergency you will have the necessary equipment to save lives and summon help.

In many cases boating insurance agencies offer discounts for vessels which undergo a Vessel Safety Check every year. All decals and safety checks are void December 31st of year they are inspected, they are also void should the operator /owner fail to maintain the vessels equipment or the vessel itself to the standard at the time of the safety check.

What Type of Items Are Checked?

  • Life Jackets
  • Registration and numbering
  • Navigation lights
  • Ventilation
  • Fire extinguishers
  • Distress signals (flares, horn, etc.)
  • Battery cover and connections

All of these items are currently required by state and federal laws and, if missing or non-operating, can result in a citation if your vessel is inspected by the Coast Guard.

Spring Really is Almost Here: Schedule Your Service Now

We are counting down the days with you that we thaw out and forklift service resumes!  Before that time comes, if your boat has been winterized, now’s the time to reverse the process and schedule any needed service before the spring rush.  You can call the office at: 302-422-2040.

Important Notice: Spoofed Emails Pretending to Be from Cedar Creek Marina / Cedar Creek Marine Center

Important Notice: Spoofed Emails Pretending to Be from Cedar Creek Marina / Cedar Creek Marine Center

We want to address a recent issue that may have affected some of our customers and community members. Over the past few days, several people have reported receiving fraudulent emails that appear to come from Cedar Creek Marina or Cedar Creek Marine Center. These messages falsely claim that we are hosting a holiday party, that you have items to pick up, or that you need to click a link for more details.

We want to offer a sincere apology for any confusion or concern these spoofed messages may have caused. These emails did not come from us, and we are actively working to make the situation clear so no one is misled.


Please Do NOT Click Any Links in These Emails

If you received a suspicious message:

  • Do not click any links.

  • Do not download attachments.

  • Do not reply to the email.

  • Delete it immediately.

These fraudulent links may attempt to steal personal information, install malware, or lead you to unsafe websites.


What Is Email Spoofing?

Email spoofing is a tactic used by scammers to make an email look like it came from a trusted source—using familiar names, email addresses, or branding. In reality, the message originates from a malicious sender who is disguising their identity.

Spoofers typically aim to:

  • Trick recipients into clicking unsafe links

  • Gather login credentials or personal information

  • Install harmful software

  • Create confusion or impersonate a business

Unfortunately, spoofing is common because email systems can’t always verify whether the “From” address truly belongs to the sender.


How to Protect Yourself

Here are a few ways to stay safe:

  • Check the sender’s actual email address, not just the display name.

  • Look for spelling errors, unusual requests, or messages that feel “off.”

  • Hover over links (without clicking) to see where they really lead.

  • When in doubt, contact us directly through our official website or phone number—not through the suspicious email.


We’re Here to Help

Your safety and trust are important to us. If you received one of these spoofed emails or aren’t sure whether a message is legitimate, please reach out. We’re happy to confirm anything that seems suspicious.

Thank you for your understanding, and again, we apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Stay safe, stay cautious, and know that we value your continued support.
