A Memorial Day outing at sea went tragically wrong when nearly a dozen individuals were hospitalized in Florida after their boat seemed to explode, bursting into flames in Fort Lauderdale.

The U.S. Coast Guard announced that they are conducting an investigation to uncover what led to the explosion and injury of the 13 passengers aboard near the Lauderdale Yacht Club.

“It was reported that a boat exploded around 5:45 pm with 13 people aboard on Monday near the New River Triangle in Ft. Lauderdale,” the agency stated in a notification on X. “Multiple injuries have been reported.”

Coast Guard officials shared images of the yacht, showing a large fire coming from the vessel and debris spread out in the water. 

The agency added that a good Samaritan rescued the three passengers on board the sinking ship.

No injuries were reported and the cause of the fire is under investigation.
