OC - Brick - Boat Fire - Baywood Marina

Around 4:50 AM Brick Township Police received a call for a boat fire at Baywood Marina. First arriving officers got on the scene with heavy fire showing in the rear of the marina with a locked gate. After gaining entry 2110 sized up a 30ft boat fully invovled with no exposures besides the dock. Toms River was also requested for their fire boat, the first due engine for Brick stretched a line and got water on the fire from land. Around 15 minutes later East Dover Fire Boat 28 arrived on the scene to hit to bow of the boat that was still on fire. The cause of the fire is currently unknown. Crews operated around an hour at the scene. No injuries were reported.

  • I was on this boat! Me, my BF and my puppy are all OK! Xmas lights caused an electrical fire... staying in hotel currently.

    They boat crew doesn't have any PPE on. A boat fire is toxic as hell. What were they thinking?
  • @jerseyboats
    Awesome drone footage! Glad to see there were no injuries or further damage at the marina!

    I'm confused as I don't see the fireman on the fire boat wearing breathing apparatus, and why is the fire boat fighting the fire from the down wind side when he could protect his grew by being on the port side out of the wind. Those firemen lost a few years of life breathing those fumes.

    Excellent videography, especially the piloting of the drone unit. Yes, concerned about the firefighters on the fire boat w/o PPE on.

    Major respect for waking your ass up to get this footage at 5 in the fuckin morning. Love the channel, cheers.
  • @Jimmythefish577
    Why would the police boat or whatever it was sit in the smoke like that? Why not sit upwind and do the same thing? PPE? Never heard of her….

    Great drone footage and hard work by the firefighters. My only comments (and this is not knowing the construction of the dock) were why not draft some water instead of a long lay that delayed the effort? Granted, the boat was done before they arrived, but it may matter some day. My other comment is no PPE, given the plastic and toxins in that smoke? Thanks again to everyone for their hard work.

    Glad that there were no injuries to anyone related to this incident, with there being a locked gate to the marine. I would imagine that someone left their boat and didn't make sure that everything was off. Thank you to all firefighters everywhere for protecting the citizens of your coverage area.
  • @davidcarroll8735
    A cellar or Bresnan nozzle might have been an interesting choice from the fireboat’s angle, since the front hatch had already melted for easy access. They are pricey so I realize there may not be enough need for one.

  • @user-ko7md2kx9q
