RedactedNarrative: A vessel caught fire just off of the Front Street Boat Ramp. The vessel was towed in by a good Samaritan and fire was put out. The only damage was to the engine and the gel coat by the transom and no one was injured.
  Operator 1 told me he was operating the vessel with his wife on board when the vessel stalled just off the boat ramp. He took the cowling off and inspected his engine. Not finding any issues, he restarted the engine and began idling back towards the ramp, when his engine caught fire. His wife grabbed a lifejacket and swam to shore. Operator 1 attempted to put the fire out with his fire extinguisher, however it did not work. A good Samaritan helped tow Operator 1 to the ramp, where they used coolers and buckets to put the fire out.
