The operator said he had just unloaded his vessel from the trailer at the Lovewell Marina boat ramp.  The operator said the engine started and then died.  He turned the blower fan on at some point after it initially started.  He said the engine died a few times and finally restarted.  He was almost to the marina fueling dock when he heard an explosion.  He said he looked back and saw that the boat was on fire.  He said he got his fire extinguisher out and used it to try and put the fire out.  It was not enough and he was given a fire extingusher that belonged to the marina and stayed on the fueling dock.  The operator was able to extinguish the fire at that point.
