Fire aboard

[nimbusgb]

Story from the home page makes chilling reading FIRE. Even tied up with access from both sides of a lock this boat was reduced to nothing in minutes.

Scary if this happens at sea, you'd barely have time to get the liferaft overboard, let alone go down to press the red button, worry about the kids and grab all the necessary emergency gear. Worse of course if you or another POB were injured or burned in the initial explosion. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif
