VESSEL #1 WAS LAUNCHED FROM THE STATE PARK.  THE OPERATOR REPORTED THAT WHENEVER SHE SLOWED DOWN THE ENGINE WOULD STALL.
THE THIRD TIME IT OCCURED, WHEN SHE PULLED THE STARTER CORD,  SHE SAW FLAMES ON THE OUTBOARD ENGINE.
HER PASSENGER THEN DISCONECTED THE FUEL LINE AND THEY PADDELED TO SHORE WHERE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER WAS USED.
