Default Boat Fire At Anchor Marine

From my understanding, the boat owner did run his blowers for a few minutes before starting one of his engines. Apparently he had a fuel leak, something blowers won't take care of. (This is something I heard second hand from a fellow that knows the owner of the Nine Lives.)

Whether the fuel leak was somewhere on the filler or the fuel lines running from the tank(s) to the engines is one of those questions that may never be answered.
