23 Meter Motor Yacht Goes Ablaze Off Virginia Beach

A 23 meter motor yacht titled m/y Savage with three persons onboard went ablaze while cruising just over two nautical miles off Cape Henry, Virginia Beach, southeastern Virginia on the early 03:30 hours of Friday eight March.  The crew called a Mayday and after putting the safety jackets jumped in the water, and were ten minutes later saved by a pilot boat.  After this Virginia Beach Fire Department with assistance by the area coast guard towed and fire fought the yacht to Fort Story, where the yacht was still smoking when it arrived in the early hours of the morning.  The cause of the fire are not reported.
At this time we cannot figure and have no information on the build and make of m/y Savage, what appears to be a cockpit motor yacht from around the eighties.
