    I am sure a Ranger would have burned slower.

    Glad he's ok. On a side note I always get a little chuckle out of seeing fire boats spray water on a burning boat sitting in the middle of a river.

    Just had a major gas leak on my uncles boat, fuel/water sensor turned to jelly from ethanol, it was pouring out of his engine while it was running. Thankfully we caught it in time. Glad to hear he was ok, here's hoping for good insurance.
