Medevac off San Luis Obispo

The US Coast Guard medevaced a 27-year-old man from the 'Hyundai Jupiter' on its way from Busan to Los Angeles more than 46 miles west of San Luis Obispo on Feb 19, 2021. The captain of the vessel had contacted the 11th Coast Guard District command center watchstanders requesting assistance for a passenger who reportedly suffered injuries from a 16-foot fall. Watchstanders launched a Coast Guard Air Station Sacramento C-27J Spartan aircraft and a Coast Guard Air Station San Francisco Forward Operating Base Mugu MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew to assist. Once on the scene, the Dolphin crew lowered the rescue swimmer, along with a stretcher, to hoist the patient into the helicopter and transported the man to Santa Barbara Cottage Hospital in stable condition.
