Three adults were evaluated for exposure to smoke and the fire was determined to be electrical in nature, according to acting police chief David Baer.
"There was more smoke damage than fire damage and the boat has been returned to the owner," said Baer.
Baer said he could not offer details about the health of the adults due to privacy laws.
