Marc Anthony’s Luxury Yacht Destroyed by Fire
Singer Marc Anthony’s 120-foot luxury yacht was burned beyond repair Wednesday evening in Miami.
The county’s Miami-Dade Fire Department said in a statement that they received a call about 7:30 p.m that a yacht was burning on Watson Island, in Biscayne Bay along the MacArthur Causeway. Two fireboats “found the yacht engulfed in flames. … There were two crew members on board the yacht. But they were able to get off safely and there were no reported injuries.”
City of Miami Fire Rescue Capt. Ignatius Carroll told The Miami Herald it took firefighters nearly two hours to control the blaze, which left Marc Anthony’s boat capsized at its berth at Island Gardens Marina.
It was confirmed in a previous tweet.
Two-time Grammy Award-winner Anthony, 51, was not aboard when the yacht caught fire, his representative confirmed to Miami’s WPLG-TV.
Although its still unclear what might have caused the fire, meanwhile, the cause of the fire is being investigated.
