Original Toronto Star caption: Roger puttock; 20; searches for his personal effects in the wreckage of a cabin cruiser owned by his father; Nigel Puttock; president of a drywall supply company; which was blown to bits Saturday morning at mooring in Oakville. Mrs. Puttock watches from behind a policeman. No one was hurt in the explosion; which showered the harbor with debris and was heard two miles away. Puttock says everything was in order Friday night and he is sure the blast was no accident.
