A blaze Sunday at an Edgewater marina destroyed a storage shed and damaged three sailboats.

Anne Arundel County Fire Capt. James Rostek said 94 firefighters responded to a four-alarm brush fire at 1:59 p.m. at the Holiday Point Marina in the 3700 block of Beach Drive Boulevard. The fire was under control by 4 p.m., and extinguished by 5 p.m.

No civilian or firefighter injuries were reported, Rostek said.

The cause of the fire is under investigation.

The outbuilding destroyed was located on marina property, Rostek said.

On hand were 30 pieces of land-based equipment and two fire boats, Rostek said.
