Two Boaters Saved as Bayliner Goes Ablaze in Redwood California

Two boaters and a dog where saved as a thirteen meter Bayliner cruiser went ablaze off Westpoint Harbor Marina, Redwood City, California on 13:00 hours of Monday eight July.  The two men jumped off the boat as it went ablaze and where picked first by a nearby boater.  The Redwood City Fire Department responded with San Francisco Airport Fire Boat and San Francisco Fireboat 1, with the US Coast Guard coming later as the boat was eventually wrecked by the fire. The boaters and the dog were uninjured as the cause of the fire was not determined.
The Bayliner in this fire is a 1991 4588 Pilothouse, which was produced from 1989 to 1993.  The 4588 Motor Yacht was a soft evolution and replacement to the 4550 Pilothouse, most important difference being the integrated radar arch, and was replaced by the 4788 Pilothouse.
