PATTAYA: -- An engine fire on a fishing boat brought a climactic end to a day trip for 80 Russian tourists.

As the boat was coming back to Pattaya in the early evening, a fire broke out in the engine room. Fortunately, the crew were able to douse the flames after an anxious 10 minutes during which the tourists were thinking they were getting a little more excitement than they had bargained on.
