The boat was in the water at the end of the boat launch ramp and had extensive fire damage.  Boat owner/operator said that he and his brothe were preparing to trailer the boat when they noticed an electrical smell.  They investigated the source of the smell and it seemed to be coming from the area of the battery selector switch.  They saw smoke and decided to turn the batteries off.  The area around the engine cover/stern burst into flames.  They attempted to put the fire out with two fire extinguishers but were unable to do so.  At this point they got off the boat.  The boat appeared to be a total loss and  estimated value at $8500.  no accident report  received.
