Late-night fire destroys house boat at Holiday Marina

A house boat was destroyed by fire at Holiday Marina in Buford late Tuesday night.

 

Hall County Fire Capt. Zachary Brackett said crews were called to the scene at 11:50 p.m. and arrived to find the 60-foot house boat fully involved in flames.

 

"An aggressive offensive attack was utilized to extinguish the blaze," Brackett wrote in an email. "The house boat was a total loss and minor damage was noted to the other two boats [located on either side of the burning boat]. No injuries were reported."

 

At this point, investigators don't know how the fire started.
