At the Van Echtens Canal in Klazienaveen, a recreational boat completely burned out just before two o’clock last night. The fire brigade was able to prevent the fire from spreading to other boats.
At the time of the fire, the boat was no longer tied to the shore, which made it difficult for the fire brigade to extinguish the fire because the boat floated away. After some time, the fire brigade managed to extinguish the fire.
The cause of the fire is not known.
