Medevac of fMatagorda
On July 29, 2013, a crewmember was medevaced in critical condition from the "Trans Iberia" in the Gulf of Mexico approximately 30 miles off the Matagorda Jetties. Because he was unconscious at the time, the CG had to use a rescue litter, a specially designed stretcher with which they were able to hoist with using the helicopter. The crew of the tanker had contacted Sector Corpus Christi watchstanders at 4:16 p.m. to request assistance for a 57-year-old man with medical concerns. A Coast Guard flight surgeon spoke with the ship’s captain and determined the man had a possible heart attack and required immediate medical transport. The watchstanders launched a crew aboard an MH-65 Dolphin rescue helicopter at 5:05 p.m. and they arrived on scene at 5:40 p.m. They hoisted the ailing crewman and delivered him to the Citizens Medical Center in Victoria.
