Excerpts from CBSnews.com:
A fire Wednesday at Pier 11 Marina on the city’s Far South Side caused serious damage to at least four boats, and damages will most likely surpass $1.1 million.
It was around 10 a.m. when crews with the Chicago and Dolton fire departments responded to the marina at 826 E. 138th St. – along the Little Calumet River on the southern boundary of the city. Fire crews found three boats on fire.
As firefighters attempted to put out the flames, the fire spread to a fourth boat. The fire was started when a recreational boat owner was attempting to winterize his boat, a process that involves placing a plastic cover over the boat which is sealed in by heat. That owner was using a propane tank – and at some point, his boat caught fire.
Among the casualties was a historic vessel used in tours along the Chicago River that was owned and operated by Chicago First Lady cruises and its sister line, Mercury Cruises.
From ChicagoFDMedia on Twitter:
Marina fire 824 East 138. Two boats. Companies have been pouring water for hours. Dolton responded first realized it’s Chicago and called CFD but stayed on scene with aerial unit to help pour on water. Fire may have started from winter sealing mishap
