A Darwin man is being treated in hospital for severe burns after he accidentally ignited litres of fuel with a spark from a power drill.

The 29-year-old amateur fisherman was working on his tinnie at his Nightcliff home when the fire started.

Police told the NT News he had filled the bottom of boat with petrol and had been trying to drain it into jerry cans when he began using the drill.
