Happened this weekend right in Sue Creek. Boat was fueling and then caught on fire. No one injured. Don't know what might have caused it, everyone got off the boat and they pushed it away from the fuel dock. That open flag is the fuel dock. It was a nice day and there is always a lot of traffic there. Added traffic was our weekend cruise headed back into port, about 16 boats.
Quick response by the emergency responders, but the fire spread really fast. Lucky they were able to get it away from the pier.
I googled and did not find any news articles on it. Seems like this happened in August of 2013 too!!

Tough loss for sure.
