5.25- Fire aboard "Ocean Gem"



At about 1:00 am (5/26) I was having a beer at the local tavern when Firetrucks and Emergency Responders started screaming by from all over the County... they were on their way to Chris Fulcher's seafood plant in response to a fire aboard the "Ocean Gem" trawler docked there.

Eyewitnesses reported flames pouring out of the pilot house, but by the time I got there it was only smoke and steam from the firefighting.
