RedactedNarrative: I, indiana conservation officer (ico), was dispatched to a vessel on fire on monroe reservoir on saturday, october 6, 2018, at approximately 1303 hours, in monroe county. I arrived on scene, which was in front of the outer docks, outside of the idle zone in front of four winds marina. When i arrived on scene, the owner and operator of the vessel, subject1, was with her daughter, subject2, who was also on the vessel that caught fire.  Subject1 and subject2 were uninjured and safe on a vessel.  
  Perry clear creek fire department had the vessel fire extinguished and in tow to fairfax boat ramp where subject1's father was going to meet them with the trailer.  I had subject1 and subject2 board my patrol boat so i could interview and assist them with getting to the fairfax marina.  At approximately 1358 hours, the burnt vessel was successfully put on the trailer and hauled to the four winds marina parking lot, where staff there assisted with rearranging the vessel on the trailer.  Four winds marina staff is allowing the vessel to stay in their lot until the disposition is decided.  
  I spoke with subject1, who advised me that they had launched her boat at approximately 1230 hours from paynetown boat ramp and operated it toward the dam and four winds marina.  Subject1 explained that as she was operating the boat she started to smell something “hot”.  Subject1 stated that she had her daughter get to the front of the boat and she looked at the engine cover, which had smoke coming out from it.  Subject1 then grabbed the fire extinguisher inside the boat and attempted to use it on the flames coming from the engine compartment.  Subject1 stated that he fire extinguisher did not work.
  Subject3 was able to get subject1 and subject2 onto his boat safely and without any injuries.  Subject1 was also able to get some of her belongings off of the boat before the fire engulfed the boat.  Subject1 stated that some of the belongings she was unable to retrieve were water skis, a dewalt drill, and a “yeti” style cooler.  
  After perry clear creek fire department was able to get to the burnt vessel over to the fairfax boat ramp, subject1 and her father were able to get it loaded onto the trailer.  I photographed the burnt vessel and subject1 was able to provide photographs she took on the water while the boat was on fire.
