RedactedNarrative: On 09/15/2012 at approximately 1700 hours, I responded to a boat fire in the North Basin just south of the mouth of the river, via boat.  Upon arrival I observed a multi colored 29 ft Commander open bow watercraft on fire.  All subjects were safely off the burning watercraft and aboard Vessel Assist''s boat.  Shortly after we arrived, Lake Havasu Fire Department arrived and started to put the fire out.
  
  I made contact with the owner of the watercraft.  Owner said they launched at Pirate''s Cove and was heading south to the channel when he noticed smoke coming out of the hatch on the transom.  Owner tried to open the hatch and was unsuccessful.  Owner''s wife said they needed to get everyone off of the boat.  Owner and his wife started distributing PFD''s.  Owner''s father-in-law started using the fire extinguisher while everyone evacuated the watercraft.  Owner advised none of his alarms had sounded and he did not know why the fire had started.
  
  While Lake Havasu Fire Department was putting out the fire the watercraft sank.  Boat was recovered by Vessel Assist and transported to the impound yard.
  
  After investigation, it was determined the fire most likely started due to electrical from the audio system.
