RedactedNarrative: I was advised by Officer of a vessel fire in the Mexico Beach Canal.  Dispatch advised of no injuries and the engine caught on fire.  See detailed narrative.
  
  Operator1 advised " we were idling thru the canal, when the throttle got stuck, I tired shifting the throttle and heard a loud pop.  When I looked back the engine was on fire.  I grabbed my fire extinguisher and when I popped off the safety tab, the fire extinguisher fell apart.  I paddled over to the condo where a lady name saw us in distress.  She threw us some fire extinguishers to put the fire out until the fire department arrived.  Then we paddled back to the boat ramp to recover the boat.
