This afternoon the Gare Loch police launch standing off and RNLI zooming in. No sign of persons on board but very ablaze.
Sorry if photo upside down.
More sorry for owner.
Electrics is my guess if spontaneous…

Yes, heard that on VHF whilst out today. Very sad for the owner.
Sounds like nobody was hurt, which is the main thing (conflicting reports of being nobody on board vs occupant rescued)
Reports on Scottish Facebook site suggest burnt down to near waterline and now sunk. Sad end.
