Two people rescued from a boat in southern Victoria
  • 11 months ago
Two people have been rescued after a boat caught fire in Port Phillip Bay near Melbourne. Emergency crews were called to the 13-metre cabin cruiser just after midday, to find the boat completely engulfed in flames around two nautical miles off Saint Kilda. They managed to extinguish the blaze, but the boat sank because of extensive damage. Two men aged 61 and 59 had managed to jump into the water away from the flames and a nearby army boat on a training drill came to the rescue.
