Marc Anthony's 120-foot yacht went up in flames in Miami Wednesday night.

The massive blaze was reported at about 7:30 p.m., according to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue.

Anthony was not on board, the singer's publicist said.

The two crew members on board at the time were able to escape and no injuries were reported, according to Miami-Dade Fire Rescue.

"Boat fires can quickly go from a small compartment fire into an unstoppable blaze in a matter of minutes because of the material found onboard," the fire department said.

It took two hours to control the inferno, according to officials.
