The blaze at Idaho’s Precision Boats is under investigation

Firefighters were able to contain the blaze to the service area

A Sunday afternoon fire caused over US$750,000 damage to Precision Boats, an Idaho Falls, Idaho boat and motorsports dealer.

According to a news release from the Idaho Falls Fire Department when firefighters arrived shortly after Noon there were flames and plumes of smoke coming from two bay doors on the far west side of the service area. According to employees, there were five boats, three forklifts, one UTV and multiple tools inside the service area.

Firefighters were able to contain the blaze to the service area, which was a complete loss, but kept it from spreading to the showroom, which suffered light smoke damage.

No one was injured in the blaze, which is under investigation by the Idaho Falls Fire Department.
