Autoweek is now reporting the fire as out citing sources within the Portuguese navy.

The official incident page has no update posted yet for today.

Looks like they let it burn out.

It seems they had no way to extinguish the fire anyway. Only option was to let it burn out. Glad it didn't sink, but why tow it to the Bahama's ??? I doubt they have any facility to deal with this mess.

The article I read said either Europe or the Bahamas - which is puzzling
