Video: Massive Multiple Boat Fire Engulfs Marina at Lake Texoma

Several high-end boats and yachts were destroyed in a fire that broke out at a marina on Lake Texoma Wednesday morning, DFW is reporting.

The fire reportedly began on U Dock at the Highport Marina in Pottsboro, Texas. Flames, thick smoke and explosions could be seen for miles as the fire spread from boat to boat.

Officials are still uncertain what sparked this blaze, however, witnesses have said a maintenance crew was working on a boat when it caught fire.

Texas Game Warden Capt. Steve Stapleton said there are 10 to 15 “large boats” on fire and every one of them will likely burn into the water.

It’s a sad sight to see; you can watch the massive fire engulf the whole marina in the video below:
