A ten meter sport cruiser went ablaze while berthed at Mission Harbour, near the Mission Bridge on the Fraser River, Canada on 05:30 early morning time of Thursday fourth April 2024. The blaze was reported by witnesses from the Mission Bridge, as Mission Fire Rescue Service intervened for the fire with multiple crews. Ultimately the boat sank and also damaged part of the dock which she was moored to, on its starboard side. Following the sinking Mission Fire Rescue Service deployed a containment boom around the boat, and also recovered the discharged engine oil. The fire left no one injured, with the cause of the blaze being under investigation by the Canadian Coast Guard. Later in the day a contractor was given duties the following Friday to remove the sank sport cruiser, with the plan to do this on Sunday.
The sport cruiser in this fire is a Cruisers 3570 Esprit as produced from 1995 to 2000. The 3570 Esprit came out as a replacement to the 3370 Esprit, with the model evolving into the Cruisers 3572 Express, same boat with extended bathing platform and a different cabin layout.
