Hollywood Fire Rescue, Broward Sheriff's Office Fire Rescue, and the Miami-Dade Fire Rescue worked together on Monday November 3 to douse a fire that engulfed a boat that had two boaters who were aboard. Judson Grosvenor was nearby when he rushed to the boat on fire to rescue one of the two boaters by getting one of the boaters who was in the water to get on his boat while Justin used his boat to rescue the other boater who was wearing a life jacket into his boat after he called the United States Coast Guard (USCG) for assistance. The boat that is 35 feet long caught fire while in the water after it left the coast of Hallandale Beach. The firefighters were able to put out the fire. The two boaters were taken by the USCG to Dania Beach where they are in good health. Judson does not think himself as a hero since he was just doing his job helping people in need. The boat was destroyed from the fire that is being investigated by the authorities. Link is wsvn.com/news/local/bro...via @wsvn

Some of these boaters sure have a way of getting themselves into trouble. I hope the two are okay.

@Deepizzaguy .........I think they go out thinking they know what they are doing and it doesn't turn out that way at all.

I hope they had insurance. In the long run though, who cares about the boat as long as they are alive.
