A deputy made contact with the victims, who were near the parking lot of the marina.
Both were taken to Corwell Health Ludington Hospital, then Grand Rapids, for their injuries.
They are in critical but stable condition.
The preliminary investigation shows there was a fuel leak, and one of the victims attempted to disconnect the battery when a spark caused the explosion.
Deputies say the majority of the damage was kept to that boat.
