Quote:"Two weeks after a morning fire damaged six boats at the Crandon Park Marina, firefighters battled flames damaging six more boats nearby Thursday morning at the Rickenbacker Marina. According to Miami Fire Rescue Capt. Ignatius 'Iggy' Carroll, three of the boats were heavily damaged and the three others had minor heat damage."
Quote:"A mysterious boat fire struck for the second time in several weeks, resulting in damage to six more yachts, bringing to 12 the total damaged in two fires."
Note: There've been way more boat fires than just those two. And if the Rickenbacker Causeway sounds familiar, it's because an unknown odor caused an evacuation on the Rickenbacker Causeway in this area a week prior, mentioned in the 2020-05-14 update...

Quote:"Firefighters in Fort Lauderdale had to battle two separate yacht fires early Saturday morning. The vessels were less than a mile apart, but required a large collection of first responders to extinguish the flames. 'Each fire had over 50 firefighters on scene, in order to battle the blaze at each one,' said Stephan Gollan, Battalion Chief, Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue."
Quote:"According to Gollan, rescue workers received a call at approximately 1:50 a.m. Saturday, regarding a large yacht on fire at Lauderdale Marine Center. That's where crews found a 93-foot Benetti yacht, called 'Prince Ville' on fire, with flames coming out of the vessels bow. Thankfully no one was hurt in that blaze, but just a short time later, firefighters received another call. 'While we were battling that fire, a second fire came in located about a mile down the river from this one,' Gollan said. 'And that was a 98-foot vessel.'" Crews say that yacht, named 'Tigers Eye,' had flames coming out of its upper deck."
