    Yeah that was at Captain's Cove Yacht Club right next to a friend of mine club. Not sure how it started but pretty bad......

    Scary.  Could have been a lot worse.  Check out the footage of the emergency crews hustling that one big boat away from the fire.

    Whenever we see the local marine police and fire boats around our marina, we always let them know they're appreciated.

    Would the fact that he was disconnected the shore power have anything to do with it?  Arcing?

    Who knows. I would say that is one reason I shut off all my 110V breakers at the panel, then switch off the main 110V, then switch off the shore power isolation, then unplug at the dock power supply, all before I take off my shore power cable from the boat.

    When I plug back in, do everything above in reverse.

    I believe that the boat that the fire started on was a live on. Could have been anything that started it.
