Launched Supply Boat and then--kaboom!

I launched the supply raft in rough weather as ordered on the northern coast of the Philipines. I was reversing away from it and was about 100 yards away, when suddeenly--kaboom, the raft blew up. I guess the supplies were ammunition. No shore batteries around so maybe the weather detonated it. Pretty intersting.
