Phuket Tour Boat Blaze Injures Captain, Sparks Investigation

A fire broke out on the Flamingo Lady 2 tour catamaran in Phuket, injuring the captain and sparking an investigation. The blaze occurred around 10:35 am on October 3, after the boat had dropped off 22 tourists and was returning to Ao Po Pier. The right engine overheated, igniting oil vapours and setting the vessel on fire. Captain Charoon Rungsamut, injured while trying to control the flames, was hospitalised. Fortunately, no passengers were on board. Authorities are now examining the cause of the malfunction and the vessel's safety measures, reported Phuket News.
