Classic Formula Boat Destroyed by Fire in Two Rivers

A classic nine meter Formula sport cruiser titled m/y High Life exploded first and then burned down to fire in the City of Two Rivers, Wisconsin Bay on 10:52 morning time of Saturday thirteen July. Photographer Keith Katers was on the scene to show as Two Rivers Fire Department responded to an area in the harbor, just west of the Two Rivers Coast Guard Station, to the boat fire, who on arrival found the sport cruiser, which is part of a fishing charter operation fully engulfed in flames and sending heavy black smoke into the air. The Coast Guard and the Two Rivers Fire Department worked together to secure the boat to the sea wall and extinguish the flames. No one was hurt in the fire, as the crew of High Life jumped off board when the blaze started.  The boat was wrecked and sunk after the blaze, with an investigation ongoing on what caused the fire.

M/y High Life is a Formula 31 SC Express as designed by John Adams and produced from 1981 to 1985.  The 31 SC Express was Formula second size model during its production run.
