At 3:00 that guy operates the fire cannon like my four year old uses the potty, LOL! (I'm sure it's not as easy as it looks but that water was going EVERYWHERE but on the fire)
@@ChrisGoosman he had to catch up to a moving boat. We could not stop the tow or the boat would go down. All while we still had wind gust to 30mph from the storms that passed and coming in
@@SeaNickLakeStClair I get it, I'm sure I would look even more ridiculous trying to do something so complicated. It just struck me as a funny moment in an otherwise pretty serious video. Good job on your part of this, glad no one was hurt or worse.
Nicely done guys. I'm surprised there aren't more fires on gas boats with all the inexperienced boaters on the water. My head is on a swivel at a gas dock as I did see an explosion years ago while waiting in the creek, Stay safe!
@@SeaNickLakeStClair The fuel tank and the engine room must be in chilled condition in the summer months 😮They must also be in separate sealed chambers and kept under temperature controlled conditions 😮😮
@@P.Rack25 no, letting it burn would have eventually breached the fuel tank causing even more pollution. Not to mention the danger to others in the area that didn’t have the sense to keep a distance. Getting the fire out as quickly as possible and then removing the boat from the water was the best course of action
@@SeaNickLakeStClair Good point! I guess I was coming from the perspective of the crap conditions with the storm coming and get everyone safe. I'm glad it all worked out.
Just wow!

This is still the funniest comment in this thread. 🤣

Where was this at? I think I saw this boat burned at a marina off of Front Road in Lasalle.
@@AustinTA-cd9rs Anchor Bay in Lake St. Clair
How did the boat stay afloat with all that water thrown at it?
@@acreguy3156 it was fine timing between getting the fire out and then getting pumps in
@@SeaNickLakeStClair Thanks 👍!

They could have just let it burn to the waterline and gotten off the water sooner. The result was going to be the same either way.
