RedactedNarrative: Owner #1 Stated to the effect of: I was sleeping when I received a phone call from Sgt. of the New Jersey State Police Marine Bureau, stating my boat was on fire at the Brielle Yacht Club. 
  
  Investigation at the scene revealed: On the above date and time, the undersigned arrived at the Brielle Yacht Club 201 Union Ln in Brielle Borough at 0317 hrs and witnessed a 44 ft fishing vessel later 
  identified as the Miss Mikayla Ann bearing NJ Registration fully engulfed moored in its slip. Brielle Fire was on scene actively attempting to extinguish the fire. While on scene I spoke with the sole witness who lives in the apartments above Hoffmans Marina directly adjacent to Brielle Yacht Club. Witness stated, himself and wife woke up early that morning because they were traveling to Islamorada FL, and while packing, witnessed the vessel fully engulfed in its slip. Witness immediately ran out of his apartment to attempt to extinguish the fire but the water was turned off at the docks, and vessel too involved to extinguish. Further on scene investigation revealed: The vessel was unoccupied and no injuries were sustained. The fire started on the starboard stern portion of the vessel where the shore power cord was secured and burned through the entire vessel. As the vessel burned it charred the piling's and melted the TREX dock it was secured to. 
  
  The vessel was removed by Towboat US to Hoffmans Marina where it is blocked and dry docked.
