3 Escape As Boat
Explodes & Sinks
Three local fishermen escaped
unharmed from their blazing craft
in a skiff Tuesday night in Mo
noshka Bay.
The fishermen, John Holland,
Richie and Cecil Hartman, were
forced to abandon the boat “Little
Monster,” owned by Burl Clymer,
after she exploded into flames in
the nearby bay about 11 p.m. Tues
day.
The three escaped unharmed and
from the safety of their skiff,
watched until the blazing craft,
loaded with 1,500 salmon in the
hold, sank. Another fishing boat
in the bay picked the three men
up and brought them into town.
The explosion and fire were be
