Bum deal, i played that fire deal on a boat one time, it sucks. They must have built it with polyester resin, i don't think epoxy
burns at all... Just thinking, i wonder if my car insurance will go up![]()
Damn Shame. Wonder what started the fire.
An electrical fire, are you kidding me? A million dollar budget and they have an electrical fire?? They buy the best, hire the best, and they have an unprotected electrical circuit??? Basic electrical 101 failed???............

And for the want of a 35 cent fuse the whole boat goes up in flames....Yeah, I know, it must have been something without fuse or circuit breaker, directly related to the main power... I saw something similar when a hold down top shifted and shorted both terminals together. The metal top got so hot it transferred the heat to the "J" hooks, which started a carpet fire that got into the engine cover, etc etc.... I doubt that boat had any carpet, but there had to be something flammable near the shorted wire(s).... I'm just jealous Mike because I don't get to wrench on anything like that...... I'm just super happy we're not mourning any more racers......

Horrible! Thousands of hours burned up, just like that. At least a few more Americans will have some work building a new boat for 2013-14.
