Due to strong winds, the fire spread rapidly throughout the ship. When the fire was discovered, the crew quickly jumped off the ship and swam to shore.
Witnesses said the fishing boat had just filled its fuel tank to prepare for a long trip. As a result, the fire spread to the fuel tank and caused a huge fire. There were about 6-7 crew members on board at the time.
