Does anybody know more about this?

The Coast Guard says crews rescued 28 people after their boat engine caught fire in San Francisco Bay.

Officials received a call about the blaze in the McCovey Cove shortly after 4 p.m. Saturday.
 
A "Duck" (DUKW) Tour! These things are a mishap enroute to a scene.
 
I've seen that old Duck all summer long taking passengers around the near areas around the AT&T park. It looked so old and battered, I always wondered if it would sink some day.
 
Sounds like it wasn't actually "on fire" but rather smoking from the overheated engine. Glad everyone was removed safely and didn't have to jump into that cold Bay water!
