That's a shame. It looks like the fire we had here last week, but ours was a building. That's a big boat!

One of the boats that caught fire was I beleive to have been a rental. And no not a fire sale. Two people had to be rescued from one of the boats. two young ladies were trapped below deck. With some quick thinking some guy broke out the chainsaw ans cut an opening for the people to get out. If it was'nt for him the girls would have died...
