Two people were badly burned when the motorboat they were about to cruise in exploded while refueling at the Bridge Marina dock. Salisbury fire Capt. Andrew Murphy said the injured man and woman were taken to Portsmouth Regional Hospital with what he called "serious burns." Flames shot high above the dock and plumes of acrid, black smoke billowed from the pleasure craft, Vitamin Sea, as local and regional firefighters fought to keep the fire from spreading to a nearby gasoline pump and the dock. Also on hand were a U.S. Coast Guard surf rescue boat and the Newburyport fireboat Raven.
