FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — A 30-foot boat caught fire late Thursday night at a waterfront property in Fort Lauderdale, sending thick smoke and flames into the air and prompting a response from Fort Lauderdale Fire Rescue.
The fire broke out around 11:30 p.m. just south of 1000 River Reach Drive.
Frank Guzman, a FLFR spokesperson, said crew quickly extinguished the blaze.
Videos show bright orange flames and heavy black smoke rising above trees, partially obscuring the boat.
Guzman later confirmed that no injuries were reported.
Witnesses described the incident as a large boat with a cabin suddenly erupting into flames.
The cause of the fire remains under investigation. No other details were immediately released.
