Utila – La Ceiba Ferry Engine Catches Fire

One engine on the new Utila ferry caught fire this morning, causing divers from the cays and dive shops on Utila to dash to the scene to help.

Two boats arrived and towed the ferry to its destination.

The ferry was traveling from La Ceiba to Utila when one engine blew. No one onboard was hurt.

The boat has no alternate available, but is expected to be back in operation in time to complete this afternoon’s trip.
