Medevac off Oahu
A 30-year-old Vietnamese fisherman, suffering severe abdominal pain, was medevaced from the "Lady of the Sea II" on Apr 19, 2017, and arrived in good condition to Queens Medical Center in Honolulu in the evening aboard a Navy MH-60 Seahawk helicopter. Watchstanders at JRCC received a call from the master of the fishing vessel at 7 a.m. The vessel was 276 miles south of Oahu making seven knots en route to Oahu. The JRCC watchstanders requested assistance from the U.S. Navy HSM-37 ‘Easyriders’ due to the distance offshore. The watchstanders briefed the duty flight surgeon and agreed on a medevac. A HC-130 Hercules fixed-wing aircrew from Coast Guard Air Station Barbers Point launched to provide top cover and communications, while the Navy Seahawk crew launched from Kaneohe Bay. The Coast Guard watchstanders worked with the Navy and the crew of the vessel to arrange a Navy surface asset and basket hoist transfer once the vessel was 173 miles south of Oahu. Weather on scene was reportedly winds of 17 mph with 7-foot seas.
