Sunseekers on Poole quay is on fire...

[sparks_E39]

One of the new multi million pound yachts is completely gutted by the looks of things, no idea if the fire has spread, anyone else from these parts?

Eep, quite a few quids worth there! Is it just one that's gone up or has someone gone on an arson spree or something?

edit: duh, seems I'm unable to read. Hope it's contained fairly quickly and doesn't get a chance to spread.

How would reducing weight start a fire?

Colin Chapman once said add lightness, increase pyrotechnics.. or was it performance

Stewart McIntyre, managing director of Sunseeker, said the boat was worth £7m and was due to be shipped to its new owner in Mexico in the next few weeks.
