GRAND HAVEN, Mich. — Crews extinguished a large fire on Grand Isle Marina early Sunday morning.

The fire started around 12:30 a.m. Sunday when a boat tied to the dock near the boaters' lounge caught fire on Grand Isle Drive in Grand Haven.

Officials say there were people inside the boat at the time, but they got out safely.

The wind caused the fire to spread to two other boats. A boom was placed into the water to contain any potential fuel leaks.

The fire was put out shortly before 2:30 a.m. Sunday.

The official cause remains under investigation.
