Don't have any details, but looks like it may have started at the fuel dock. Hopefully everyone is OK.

”Summer Snow” that boat was moored on D finger at the marina. Wonder what happened? You would always see the boat fishing out front.

Maybe it was a case of putting the fuel nozzle in a gimbal rod holder, with the black deck cap. I’ve seen it happen, at French creek. I mentioned it to the gas attendant at my local marina, last week. He said it has happened there too.

I talk to the marina yesterday, and it looks like when they were filling up the fumes caught from an electrical spark.

OMG you should see some of the comments on FB its mind blowing.

A good reminder why everyone on board is to get off/away from the boat during fueling, except the person doing the fueling.

And stop reading Facebook would be another. I agree with Wolf so many unhelpful comments on there with people that probably don't even have a boat.
