RedactedNarrative: BASED ON INFORMATION TO DATE:  Based on witness statements, P1 and his wife were asleep on their vessel when they awoke to smoke in the cabin.  He found the source of the fire to be coming from the electrical panel.  He attempted to extinguish the fire but was not successful.  His wife called 911 while he unmoored the vessel to prevent more vessel and dock damage. P1's vessel has sank and fuel was leaking to the surface.  The fuel was boomed off by Hamilton County Fire and HAZMAT.  I did find that the fire had damaged 3 other vessels visibly.  Upon contact with the marina manager, he indicated another vessel had received some interior smoke damage.
  
  Towboat US did raise, salvage, and remove the vessel on 12/21/2009.
