RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 fueled up at Beach Marine and headed southbound on the Intracoastal Waterway. The vessel slowed down north of the Butler Blvd.  Bridge near Beswick Island to navigate through vessel traffic. The operator attempted to push forward on the throttle to get back on plane, at which point the vessel's engine bay had an explosion. Vessel 1 then caught fire and both the operator and passenger on the vessel jumped off the bow of the vessel safely and were picked up by a Good Samaritan vessel. They were both transported to Mayo Clinic to have superficial burns treated.
   
  Operator:Slight burn to back of neck and top of back. Hair on head and eyebrows are slightly burnt.
  Occupant:Back has superficial burns on upper through lower back, hair is slightly burnt on head. Slight burns on rest of body.
