BOSTON (WCVB) – It was a fiery scene in Boston late Tuesday night as raging flames jumped from boat to boat at a marina.
When firefighters arrived at the Constitution Marina in Charlestown just before 11:30 p.m., a large boat was already engulfed. The flames quickly spread to two other vessels.

MassPort crews jumped in to help, but firefighters still had a tough time getting the fire under control.
Firefighters switched to foam, which doused the fuel-fed flames.
Two of the boats sank during the fire.
