McAvoy fire?

[BayTrawlerGuy]

I just saw a brief clip on KTVU channel 2 saying that there was an arson-suspected fire at McAvoy Marina (BayPoint or West Pittsburg or thereabouts) which destroyed 8 boats and some land facilities. I looked on KTVU's website and several other websites, including the CoCo Times, and was unable to find any additional info. (It appears all news outlets are closely following C.C. Myers at the Bay Bridge and unable to cover other, less scheduled, news events.)

Anyone else find any hard info online about this?

I haven't head anything on Ch 3 or 10 TV out of Sacto. It is difficult to get hard news on holiday weekends....except for the drownings which seem to occur every year.

Here is a listing for them. They are near Sherman Lake, but their mailing address is Bay Point.

Another meth lab maybe?

I was perusing my chartbook this weekend and found McAvoy's Marina. It is not near Sherman's as we thought. It is actually further down bay and on the Martinez side of the channel. Looks like a very small and old marina based on what I could see on the chart of the area.

When I hear about boats burning, I don't think about insurance jobs, or Meth labs. I think about a drunk cigarette smoker falling asleep...
