A yacht caught fire off the coast of Pattaya, eastern Thailand, on Friday afternoon.

The 46ft long boat burst into flames shortly before 3pm local time while the captain and a technician were taking it for a test.

Three crew members were stuck onboard as the flames ripped through the vehicle. Maritime rescue crews arrived and pulled them to safety before tackling the inferno. The fire was brought under control in around 30 minutes.

Pattaya Regional Harbor Office said it is now investigating the blaze and requested the owner co-operate with the probe.
