The US Coast Guard medevaced a man from the "Cameron Scott" 30 miles south of Shinnecock Inlet, New York, in the evening of June 27, 2017. The Coast Guard Cutter "Shrike", an 87-foot patrol boat, was notified around 8:00 p.m., that a 34-year old man aboard the fishing vessel had suffered a head injury after he was struck with a heavy cable earlier in the day. The "Shrike" launched their smallboat with two Coast Guard EMS-trained personnel aboard. They arrived on scene at approximately 8:30 p.m., and boarded the "Cameron Scott" to render assistance. Watchstanders at Coast Guard Sector Long Island Sound also launched a Coast Guard Air Station Cape Cod MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew to assist. At approximately 10:00 p.m., the aircrew arrived on scene, hoisted the injured man, and transported him to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston for further care. The mans current medical condition was unknown.
