Firefighters investigate the boats following the blaze
FIREFIGHTERS tackled a blaze on board two boats in Hampshire this afternoon.
Fifteen firefighters were called to Fareham Creek at about 12.10pm.
They found one 40-foot trader motor cruiser and a 40-foot sail boat alight.
Firefighters used breathing apparatus and high-pressure hose reels to douse the flames.
Both boats were damaged during the blaze, but no-one was injured.
An investigation is underway to determine the cause of the fire.
