    Some more info:

    Fire started at around 6 p.m. on saturday and was put out at around 10 a.m. the next day. It was spoted when 3 boats were already in flames, before firefighters put it out, 20 boats were destroyed.
    The cause was electrical malfunction (short circuit)

    Here are some sad pictures of the devastation:

    Never heard of that story, but I suppose everything is possible...
    The fire started on the boat belonging to the german owner, whose insurance will/should cover all the damage caused.

    Fire spread

    From the video, it sure looks like the first efforts were poor.
