Two people were forced to jump into the water as the pleasure boat they were on caught fire in Napier's Inner Harbour.
A Fire and Emergency NZ spokeswoman said the pair jumped out of their small boat, which was powered by an outboard motor, near Nelson Quay, Ahuriri, just before 8pm on Tuesday.

At least three police vehicles and a St John ambulance were called to the scene, but the pair did not require treatment.
