ON SEPTEMBER 6, 2011, AT APPROXIMATELY 5:20AM, A RESIDENT WHO LIVED ADROSS THE CREEK FROM CANADY'S MARINA OBSERVED A FIRE AT ONE OF THE MARINA DOCKS.  SHE CALLED 911 TO REPORT THE FIRE.  NEW HANOVER COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT RESPONDED AND EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE.  THE FIRE HAD DESTROYED TWO BOATS AND A PORTION OF THE DOCK THAT THEY WERE TIED TO.  THE NEW HANOVER FIRE MARSHALL CONDUCTED AN INVESTIGATION AND DETERMINED THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE WAS DUE TO AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM IN THE CONSOLE OF VESSEL 1.

NO ONE WAS OPERATING EITHER VESSEL AS THEY WERE BOTH TIED TO THE DOCK AT THE MARINA WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED.
