One of the guys there said that the fire did originate in the back of the boat near the motors, and it spread very rapidly. All the occupants jumped from the boat.

All the occupants jumped from the boat.

I assume one of the marine units made rescues, unless the occupants swam to land.

Seth,

Some nearby boaters grabbed them up, and then the PD boat helped too. We were there for suppression only due to the delay.
