Firefighters and EMS teams were sent to the marina around 11:20 this morning. The 24 foot boat was tied to a fuel dock when it caught fire. The lines securing it to the dock burnt through and the boat had begun to drift towards other vessels when a tow boat managed to lasso it and pull it towards fire fighters. Six people were on the boat when it caught fire, three without injury. The other three people were taken to Shore Medical Center for minor injuries. The cause of the fire is under investigation by New Jersey State Marine Police.
