Employee Is Burned by Boat Battery Explosion, Later Dies

On May 25, 2007, an employee, boat service technician, independent contractor, was engaged in the repair of pleasure boats. The employee was alone in the boatyard. A fire developed on the after end of the boat, possibly from a boat battery explosion. The battery was previously removed from the engine compartment and apparently sitting on top of the boat hooked up to a battery charger. The employee was either burned in a flash explosion or enveloped in a fire that moved quickly enough so that he could not escape the flames. The employee sustained serious burns, and he died later at the hospital.
