One person was injured after a sport cruiser of about ten meters in length titled m/y A Package Deal caught fire by the fuel dock at 673 City Island Avenue on City Island, Bronx just before 18:00 hours of Tuesday fifth September 2023. The sport cruiser sunk in the Long Island Sound shortly after firefighters were able to get the blaze under control. Witnesses say the boat's owner had just pulled up for gas and was standing on the dock, when the attendant started filing the tank up. The one injured person was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries, as the fire was placed under control an hour after the call for the blaze was received. Sixty firefighters and twelve units worked to prevent the fire from spreading to the fuel dock and surrounding buildings. The army corps of engineers will raise the boat so fire marshals can inspect the wreckage, but investigators believe the cause of the fire was most likely an accident.
The boat in this fire is a Carver 360 Sport Sedan as produced from 2003 till 2004 and then with the 36 Sport Sedan name till 2006.
