The Coast Guard and Washington Ecology officials say three boats have been involved in a fire in the Roche Harbor Marina on San Juan Island and one is leaking gasoline.

Two of the boats ended up underwater while one was towed and secured. Apparently no one was aboard the boats at the time of Wednesday's fire.

Ecology spokeswoman Barbara MacGregor says one of the sunken vessels contains about 200 gallons of fuel and is leaking. The other contains about 30 gallons of fuel.

Ecology workers have placed 50 feet of boom around the leaked fuel and are using absorbent pads to soak up as much as possible.
