Abstract: Employees were cutting in a compartment on a fishing vessel and left for a coffee break without stationing a fire watch at the site. Within 10 minutes, another employee saw smoke rising out of the compartment. The vessel was evacuated; there were no injuries. Because the compartment contained polyurethane insulation, it took the fire department two days to extinguish the fire.
