RedactedNarrative: On August 3, 2017 at approximately 1425 hours CST, I responded to the Dale Hollow State Park Marina on Dale Hollow Lake in reference to an incident involving a PWC fire. Once on scene I interviewed the operator and passenger of the vessel. 
  According to operator of Vessel #1 (OH 0110 CT)(HIN # ZZN01001K900) he had just put fuel in his vessel at the Dale Hollow State Park Marina and had left the fuel pier. While in the idle speed zone his PWC quit running. After several attempts to restart the vessel he had no success. On the last attempt to start the engine the vessel exploded propelling him and his passenger approximately 10 feet in the air and then into the water. Both were able to swim to the dock, uninjuried.
  Marina workers were able to quickly get the fire under control and tied the sinking vessel to the dock. The vessel was submerged under the dock throughout the evening. The Corps of Engineers were notified and worked with the owner to get the vessel removed from the water the following day
  No one was injured as a result of this incident. However, Vessel #1 was a total loss and the damage was estimated at $2500.00.
