Scary site for sure.
 
Glad it wasn't windy - that could have caused a lot of damage!
 
Years ago, my wife and I saw a runabout on fire back in a cove on our lake. Nobody on it, and it was pretty well engulfed in flames.

The thing that totally amazed me, was the 3 or 4 boats that kept backing up to it, raising their drives, and trying to spray water on the fire. Now I know that stuff doesn't blow up in real life like it does in the movies, but still... Amazing.
