PRE ARRIVAL FULLY INVOLVED BOAT FIRE Brick New Jersey 12/7/23

[@ErikaGiuliani-fj9sx]

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

[@sjladuke75]

Glad to hear you're all safe. So sorry about the boat.

[@bradmagnuson6963]

Glad you're ok

[@jerseyboats]

Awesome drone footage! Glad to see there were no injuries or further damage at the marina!

[@Yalnif5200]

They boat crew doesn't have any PPE on. A boat fire is toxic as hell. What were they thinking?

[@19irving]

At least the wind is blowing the other way.

[@Mike-hs8fq]

no it wasn't for the first several minutes. The fireboat Captain put all his men at risk.@@19irving

[@SteveNevelos]

@@19irvingit doesn’t matter. They need irrespatory systems

[@19irving]

@@SteveNevelos I wasn't implying that they didn't need them.

[@davidpulaski5628]

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

[@jerseyshorefireresponse]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Mike-hs8fq]

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.

[@CMskittles]

Major respect for waking your ass up to get this footage at 5 in the fuckin morning. Love the channel, cheers.

[@ronfreniere8769]

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.

[@edharrison9218]

The gate is an electric gate with a Knox switch. There is also a Knox box by the front door. I’m not sure why the police department was not able to open it. I reached out to them to see if it is not functioning but have not heard back from them. We do not have access to the key to operate it, however the fire inspector checks it annually.

[@LakesRegionEmergencyPhoto]

Well there's something you don't see everyday. Nice catch!

[@stvnd53]

Fire Boat is awesome !!!!!

[@edhauenstein1835]

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.

[@JoeV-k5r]

salt water will ruin the pumping equip

[@JoeV-k5r]

its odd that the slips on ether side of this boat are empty?

[@4statesnewsandweather149]

Nicely done bro.

[@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.

[@rustynail6819]

Armchair firefighter, always on scene to give hindsight advice.

[@davidcarroll8735]

@@rustynail6819 you can pre-plan, you can retrospective, or “wing-it” and see what happens. I did the job a long time, and I saw something in the video I thought might put another tool in the toolbox to be used. No malice, no criticism. Thank you to all who answer the call, and Everbody Goes Home.

Someone couldn't afford the payments. Nice drone footage man.

[@jerseyshorefireresponse]

1994 boat not sure id say more user error hearing it started maybe with a heater.

[@davidbott9401]

Actually the people who were on the boat said that it was an electrical issue with their Christmas lights. I got the impression they live on the boat as she stated that they are now in a hotel

[@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….

[@nayanpanchal39]

Great video

[@dongelinas5990]

Love the drone work. Which model do you have?

[@Michael-is1zy]

Good thing the fire boat had SCBA. Nice drone coverage.

[@pamhofmeister2531]

Awesome video...🎄🤗🤗

[@wolfpacva]

They look like they did not have a clue how to put a boat fire out.

[@davidbott9401]

Glad you gave your armchair firefighter opinion

[@wolfpacva]

you have no idea what you are talking about. I was a firefighter for 20 plus yrs@@davidbott9401

[@Guido_Sarducci007]

Hello Allstate? I seem to be having an overheating situation on my boat..... What do you suggest I do?

[@bobby_D]

Why would they breathe all that smoke in? Why not have some gear on?

[@Mike-hs8fq]

Because they weren't well trained.

[@davidbott9401]

Yes they absolutely should have SCBA on, no they shouldn't be wearing structural firefighting gear if you know anything about fire boat operations

[@cjritchie9701]

@@davidbott9401you 100 percent do where structural fire gear on a vessels fire. 100 percent. Clueless

[@Jhihmoac]

Possibly started via electrical issues... Some of these owners have got these watercraft so packed with electric convenience add-ons and electronic gizmos after about a few years, the safety breakers and such had all been bypassed six months into new ownership!

[@bobby_D]

Sometimes I feel like they don’t wanna get it put out too quick. Like they wanna, I don’t know. Maybe it’s just the way I see it.

[@ErikaGiuliani-fj9sx]

Thank you!!

[@cjritchie9701]

Yeah, absolutely just the way you see it, your a civilian, don’t expect you to know at all what they are doing and why

[@larrybird_1457]

When was this?

[@jerseyshorefireresponse]

today...

[@thierrywilkes7523]

So sad the yacht had go up in flames i glad the 2 poeple are out safely from the yacht I hope they are ok that’s h

[@rdbimages]

Idea for next drill night...how to establish a water supply in a timely manner. Plenty of engines there with no water supply. Why didn't one of those engines lay in from a hydrant instead of just parking parade style?

[@raysheehan3809]

I am not sure how long the supply lay is but why not just pull a draft. Water is not that far away and the lift is minimal. There are enough units on scene to get more hard suction.

[@fpoof230]

This is right now?

[@redeyedmongoose2963]

I guess someone wanted a bigger boat

[@19irving]

Why aren't they continuously spraying water on it?

[@davescott2485]

Water supply issues. It's mentioned in the audio.

[@19irving]

@@davescott2485 Thanks. I must have missed that.

[@mimzburstify]

Omg I hour everyone is all right

[@bradmagnuson6963]

Anyone know if the owner of the boat was notified?

[@davescott2485]

They actually commented here...read up a bit and you'll see it :)

[@destinyscro22]

😮

[@Ramztothaz]

What I really want to know is where is the water tank on the fire boat?

[@jerseyshorefireresponse]

Really? Water tank on fire boat lol you’re joking right

[@Ramztothaz]

@@jerseyshorefireresponse : )

[@bradmagnuson6963]

Such a shame

[@littlehuey5679]

My opinion is that every dock should be equipped with a large wheeled dry chemical fire extinguisher because of how hard it is to extinguish boat fires ! But that’s my firefighter position!

[@fp5495]

Somebody spent one more summer with that boat before they "set it free".

[@jch3592]

I can help but once again see incompetent firefighters here, the fire is constantly spreading to the side of the boat,they could easily turn it off without leaking it.

[@NiSt1975]

A couple things water supply should be first and why use a hydrant when you have an instant water source learn drafting ops, The other things would be no bunker gear used by boat crew and why not use an arieal truck to hit it?

[@gewglesux]

Out in suffolk only the police can have blue lights

[@dennismalick3684]

Where is this

[@jerseyshorefireresponse]

maybe the title could help with that info...

I smell an insurance scam

[@FloridaCatholicGuy]

The fact that there were no boats in the slips next to the boat on fire is suspicious.

[@bradmagnuson6963]

@@FloridaCatholicGuy not necessarily, this time of year, some boat owners winterize and put their boats in storage for the winter
