Fire in Boston

The 'Spirit of Boston' caught fire in the port of Boston, Mass., and was filled from the lower levels with heavy, black smoke in the night of March 24, 2023. A second alarm was eventually struck for the fire on the vessel at the Boston Fire Department. Firefighters were working to extinguish the fire from the dock in the Seaport, from within the boat itself and from the water. At around 11:45 p.m. the fire had been extinguished. There were no injuries, as nobody was aboard the 'Spirit of Boston' at the time the fire broke out.
