The Operator of Vessel 1 started the outboard motor, flipped the bilge pump switch to the "on" position, and then walked to the bow of Vessel 1 to retrieve a fishing pole.  When the Operator glanced back toward the motor, he saw flames near the engine and fuel tank.  The Operator then moved to the Operator's position on Vessel 1 and was successful in then finding an area to exit Vessel 1 onto shore from the bow area.  The Operator then watched Vessel 1 burn from shore.  The Operator was cited for being incapacitated (alcohol).
