We did have a fire on Coast Guard hovercraft Mamilossa around noon today. The vessel was operating in Lac Saint-Pierre, in Quebec. The fire was in an engine compartment. On the hovercraft, the engines are fairly self-contained. They're in an enclosed space with a forced air intake. That's how they're able to achieve combustion, if you will.
The crew of five is safe. The machine is disabled at the moment, but we have a helicopter and another ship on site keeping things stable. We've slowed traffic down in that area. When large vessels are going through that track, they're going to create a lot of wake, and when you have a disabled vehicle, particularly at this time of year, you want to keep it as stable as you can. Traffic is co-operating. It's very light at the moment.
We're looking into the cause of the fire, but at this point everybody is safe and sound and the vessel is secure.
