RAN patrol boat consumed by fire while undergoing maintenance



HMAS Bundaberg an Australian Navy patrol boat, has been seriously damaged by fire while undergoing maintenance in Brisbane. There were no serious injuries.

Ship repair in port activities worldwide have a long trail of risk to fire. The event by itself isn't unique. Unknown when Defence will be able to assess everything and announce a cause. It is unknown if the ship can be put back in service.
