  On 07/08/2017, at about 07:16 p.m., V1 was returning to the Port of Everett Marina, South Marina D Dock, located on the Snohomish River near Everett, WA in Snohomish county.  Vessels 2 – 7 were moored at this location.
  
  According to Law Enforcement, V1, operated by Operator1, was returning from Hat Island to a rented slip at the Everett Marina.  As he was looking for his slip, he went down the wrong side.  He put the boat in reverse and the engine stopped.  He had filled the boat with fuel before coming to Everett and had left the blower on.  As he tried to restart the engine, it sounded like it wasn’t getting fuel.  He tried a second time and the engine sounded like it was trying to catch to start.  He added more throttle and it sounded like it was going to start.  Suddenly there was a big explosion with large amounts of smoke.  At that point, everyone jumped into the water.  The boat caught fire and sank.
  
  The fire aboard V1 also resulted in the sinking of V2, V3, and V4.  V5, V6, V8 and V10 were reported as a total loss.   V7 and V9 sustained significant damage.
