Three people were rescued after a sport fishing boat caught fire Saturday afternoon.

The U.S. Coast Guard and several fire departments responded to the scene which was just off of Fort Morgan near Plash Island around 1:30 p.m.

According to the USCG, the Fort Morgan Volunteer Fire Department used jet skis to rescue three people from the water. They were then taken to Lulu’s Gulf Shores restaurant.

Several other agencies responded, including Gulf Shores Police Department, Bon Secour Fire Rescue, Orange Beach Fire Rescue, and Gulf Shores Fire Rescue.

The boat received heavy damage according to the authorities.

The Gulf Shores Police believe the fire started in the engine due to mechanical difficulties.
