RedactedNarrative: Vessel 1 was at fuel dock at Catawba Landings to fuel his port side fuel tank, he had to pass the fuel hose through the window of cabin.  After he fueled the boat he paid and re-boarded his vessel.  The dock hand had untied the front of vessel 1 and was holding vessel one near the bow starboard side.  When the operator hit the start switch from the fly bridge, there was an explosion in the cabin igniting the vessel on fire.  The explosion sent glass flying toward the dock hand causing her injuries.  The operator climbed down from the fly bridge, threw his dog off the boat and climbed off the boat.  The boat was cut loose from the fuel dock and sent into the harbor where it burned to the waterline.
  
  Operator stated the dock hand filled the port side fuel tank. 
  
  Video surveillance showed the operator filled the port side fuel tank.  It was unclear if the operator turned on his blowers after he fueled up.
