RedactedNarrative: On 07/13/2018, at approximately 1350 hours CST, Vessel 1 (V1) was secured to the fuel dock at St Andrews Marina located at 3151 West 10th Street in Panama City, Bay County, FL.
  
  V1 was a 1993 29'4" Luhrs sport fish type cabin vessel displaying Florida registration FL6318LX.  The vessel was tied to the fuel dock at St Andrews Marina and had just been filled with fuel (300 gallon capacity.)  
  
  Both engines were cranked and were running for approximately 10-15 seconds when Operator 1 heard a "boom" under the floor in the engine compartment area.  Attempts were made to put out flames with a fire extinguisher and a water hose.  A witness was inside the marina store when he learned of the vessel fire at the fuel dock.  The witness grabbed a fire extinguisher from the store and went to assist in attempting to put the fire out.  The witness jumped on board and Operator 1 and his crew assisted him by holding the engine hatch open while he sprayed the fire extinguisher into the compartment.  At that time, fuel vapor ignited and blew up in the witness’s face and upper body.  Operator 1 stated that is when everybody jumped overboard to try and get away from the hazard.
  
  Panama City Fire Department and Bay County EMS were called and responded to the scene.  The fire was placed under control and subject was transported to Bay Medical / Sacred Heart Hospital where he was treated and released later that same day.
