    Close call considering how packed the marina is, but they were able to tow it out.

    found this on FB in a Bahamas group. Not my pics.

    This is Barry pulling the boat away from the marina. Video: "At what point do you pull the boat away from the marina"

    I don't have all the details, but Captain and crew had to leave the boat there for a few days. Jamal & Barry searched the boat as it was on fire. Didn't find anyone. They and several people at the marina tried to put it out. No joy. The rest as they say is history.

    Wow. Great move by Jamal and Barry. Another reason I love that place.
