An explosion, and a boat burst into flames on 11-20-25. Amazingly, the boater escaped uninjured.
LAKE OF THE OZARKS, Mo. — One person miraculously escaped unscathed after fire destroyed a boat on Lake of the Ozarks, Thursday evening.
According to Lake Ozark Fire Protection District Chief Jerry Blomberg, firefighters were dispatched to the area around the 3 Mile Marker, the evening of Nov. 20. Dispatchers reported an explosion and a boat on fire.
Blomberg says the boat's single occupant was able to escape without significant injuries, as Lake Ozark Fire Protection District and Rocky Mount Fire Protection District boats were dispatched to the scene.
The boat was a total loss, and was pulled from the Lake in pieces, after the fire was extinguished.
