THE top storey of the vessel, ‘Caribbean Rose’, which was moored at Rambaran Shipping Yard at Coverden, East Bank Demerara was ravaged by fire yesterday.

When the Guyana Chronicle arrived on the scene, ranks of the Guyana Fire Service were already working feverishly to douse the blaze.
The fire started at around 11:00am and engulfed the entire top of the three-storey vessel. Thankfully, there were no casualties.
The ‘Caribbean Rose’, Chronicle understands, was bought and moored there from Trinidad for about two months by a Guyanese businessman living in the US.
