Palm Beach County Fire Rescue and Jupiter Police are investigating a boat fire at the Square Grouper Boat Ramp in Jupiter.
The first calls came in just before 3 a.m. Tuesday.
The battalion chief said one boat was engulfed and it took about 20 minutes to put out the flames. Other boats had to be moved so the fire did not spread.
"If we wouldn't have gotten the call when we did, there's always the possibility that it could have spread to other vessels," said battalion chief, Phillip Olavarria.
However, a neighboring boat suffered some minor damage.
“My windows got shattered, paint got blistered, luckily it didn’t catch on fire," said Howard Tuttle, boater and fisherman.
"It’s really scary I mean that’s my livelihood that’s how I support my family," he added.
No one was on the boat or injured, according to officials.
The boat is being considered a total loss.

Three people escaped a fire that destroyed their boat off Fort Myers Beach on Sunday night.
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission reported a call from the  U.S.  Coast Guard Fort Myers Beach Station at 7:30 p.m. about a single-vessel boating incident near Bowditch Point.
The FWC, Coast Guard, Lee County Sheriff’s Office, Fort Myers Beach Fire Department, Iona Fire Department, and Sanibel Fire Department responded to the  27-foot vessel on fire, with three people aboard. 
The three escaped without injuries. 
The FWC is investigating the boat fire, which remains undetermined in origin.

Two people were saved after their boat caught fire and began taking on water just miles off the coast of Bulls Bay early Friday morning.
The captain of the vessel, named Strictly Business, called for assistance just after 4:00 a.m., saying his 45-foot fishing boat was on fire and taking on water, according to the U.S. Coast Guard.
They say the captain activated his Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon and switched to his satellite phone after losing communication on his VHF radio.
Rescue crew took the men to Coast Guard Station Charleston where EMS treated them on the scene.
“Everyone involved is extremely thankful a worst-case scenario turned out to be a successful mission thanks to the mariners being well prepared and the quick response of our boat crew from Station Charleston,” said Senior Chief Petty Officer Bradley Derflinger, command center supervisor, Sector Charleston. “The Coast Guard urges all mariners to outfit their vessel with an abundance of safety and communication equipment because it could very well save you or a family member’s life.” 

Local sportfishing boat Last Call caught fire in the Inlet early last weekend, but all on board were safely removed.
Around 5:15 a.m. last Sunday, the Ocean City Fire Department responded to the south jetty of the Ocean City Inlet for a reported boat fire. It was determined the burning boat had just set out for a Sunday offshore charter.
At the time of the fire, there were seven passengers aboard the vessel. All passengers were rescued by a civilian boat in the area and no injuries were reported. The U.S. Coast Guard set up a perimeter around the burning vessel. The Ocean City Fire Department deployed a fire boat and dumped water on the vessel but the boat was destroyed by the blaze. This week, Last Call charters posted a statement about the incident on social media.
“Unfortunately, the boat is a total loss. We feel very fortunate that our customers and crew all made it off the vessel safely,” the social media statement read. “We would like to thank everyone who helped us through this terrible time — the United States Coast Guard, the Maryland Natural Resources Police, the Ocean City Fire Department, Rob Copenhaver and his crew with Towboat US and last, but not least, the crew of the boat Obsession that came to our aid. Thank you. And one final thank you to all of our charter clients. You made it possible to keep our charter business running for nearly 40 years.”

An 82-foot boat was destroyed Monday night after a fire broke out on the vessel while it was docked in New Bedford, Massachusetts.
The U.S. Coast Guard responded after receiving a report shortly after 5:30 p.m. that a vessel was on fire at Popes Islands Fleet Marina. The New Bedford and Fairhaven fire departments also rushed to the scene.
Flames could be seen shooting off the luxury yacht, sending thick, black smoke billowing into the sky. Later, once emergency crews got the blaze under control, the multi-million dollar boat's charred remains were visible.
Luis Frias, who works nearby, said there was tons of black smoke in the area.
"It was just smoke, black smoke, that was it," he said. "It's a huge boat. It's a multi-million dollar boat and I think it's not even a year old."
The yacht had 500 gallons of fuel on board, which presented an added challenge for firefighters.
"Pretty much 100-percent of the boat was involved in the fire and the water they were putting on it was doing nothing," said Alan Wolfe, who owns a boat nearby. "It felt like a movie. I just feel sorry for the owners because I know them and it's a very expensive boat."
In the aftermath of the fire, it appeared as if it had snowed on the water due to the massive amount of foam.
New Bedford Fire Chief Scott Krueger said they used all of their foam and were forced to call in two more foam trucks from the New Bedford airport.
A floating boom was used in the water to prevent pollution. The Coast Guard and environmental police on scene said no major pollution had been reported.
The boat is reportedly named Miss Dunia, according to our affiliate WJAR. The fire started below its deck, the chief said. It wasn't immediately clear who, if anyone, was on the boat before flames broke out.
“I’m not exactly clear what was going on at the time of the fire," Krueger said. "There might have been people coming and going, I’m not sure. We’re investigating all that.”
No injuries were reported, the Coast Guard and New Bedford fire chief said.
The cause of the fire is not known at this time. An investigation is ongoing.

A boat exploded and caught fire at the fuel dock at the Island Boatyard at 2:05 p.m. today, according to Shelter Island Fire Chief Anthony Reiter, who spoke with the Reporter at the scene.
There were people aboard the boat, the chief said, but all got off safely; there were no injuries.

Along with the Fire Department, the Shelter Island Police Department and Emergency Medical Services responded to the incident.
The boat, still on fire, drifted out into West Neck Harbor, the chief said, adding, “It’s a goner.”
