Medevac off Nassau

The U.S. Coast Guard medevaced a 44-year-old man from the 'Skyfall' 250 nautical miles northeast of Nassau, Bahamas, on Nov 4, 2023. Coast Guard Seventh District watchstanders received a medevac request from the vessel, stating one of the crew members was suffering from severe stomach pain. Watchstanders instructed the vessel to navigate to a position 250 miles northeast of Nassau and consulted with the duty flight surgeon, who recommended the medevac. A Coast Guard Air Station Clearwater MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter aircrew and an HC-130 Hercules airplane aircrew were deployed 495 miles from the Air Station Clearwater to the scene. The Jayhawk hoisted the man and transferred him to awaiting emergency medical services in Nassau. The man was taken to Princess Margaret Hospital to receive a higher level of care.
