Blazing vessel towed to reef off Suva
On Mar 17, 2014, at 4.50 p.m. the "SK 7" caught fire while at anchor off Suva Harbor, Fiji. The fire started in the wheelhouse and quickly consumed the superstructure. The Fiji authorities dispatched a support vessel to help douse the flames which worked late into the night. There were no reports of injuries. The vessel was unoccupied and in Suva for repairs. It was towed to a nearby reef. People crowded the Suva foreshore as they watched the fire. The National Fire Authority did not respond to the fire as it was not their area of work. The cause of the fire was still unidentified. Reports with photos: http://www.fbc.com.fj/fiji/18526/police-investigate-boat-fire http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=263187
