AT APPROXIMATELY 19:15 HOURS ON 23 MAY 2010 I RECEIVED A MAYDAY CALL STATING THAT THERE WAS A VESSEL ON FIRE IN THE VICINITY OF SAILBOAT COVE.  UPON RESPONDING TO THE CALL I SAW 4 INDIVIDUALS IN THE WATER NEAR A VESSEL THAT WAS ON FIRE AND ONE INDIVIDUAL ATTEMPTING TO PUT THE FIRE OUT.  AFTER GETTING THE INDIVIDUALS ONOARD MY VESSEL IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE HALON SYSTEM ON BOARD THE INVOLVED VESSEL HAD EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE.
