I hear it was a 34' glass Carver, noone hurt, thankfully. Can't be too careful.

Info from the news:

Columbus Couple Rescued from Lake Erie
Robert Anglin's boat had just passed a safety inspection on Saturday. On Sunday, while the Columbus man, his wife and their dog were cruising on Lake Erie, south of Kelly's Island, the boat caught fire. The couple and their dog got into a life raft and were picked up a short time later by a passing boater. The Anglin's 32-foot boat burned for an hour before sinking.
