Did the electrical-caused fire of 5 yachts in Feb 2006 have anything to do with Key Guyer replacing someone and the SD Marriott Hotel and Marina being renamed to the Marquis Marriott Marina?
After all Marriott lost the lawsuit that followed due to their negligence for not doing yearly infrared inspections of electrical. This would have prevented that fire. People could have lost their lives and still can at Marriott properties. since they did not learn their lesson and still disregard the industry standard of minimum yearly inspections and stopped doing these yearly after 9-11 for simple cost cutting reasons. So to save $2500 /year Marriott lost $5 million and could have lost lives. Do you feel safe at a Marriott? “Electrical is still the Nr 1 cause of fires in buildings ahead of arson” according to EPRI (Electrical Power Research Institute), Palo Alto, CA
The fire that you speak of was caused by an electrical short in one of the boats. Had nothing to do with the Marriott Marina or changing its name to marquis. It became the Marriott Marquis San Diego a Marina because it is one of the upper in properties near the convention center. Not sure where you got your information but it is wrong.
