Medevac off Ketchikan
The US Coast Guard medevaced a 29-year-old man from the 'Celebrity Eclipse' near Dall Island, approximately 65 nautical miles southwest of Ketchikan, Alaska, in the evening of Aug 30. Watchstanders from the Coast Guard Sector Juneau command center received a report at 4:05 p.m. from the staff captain of the cruise ship stating that a crew member was potentially experiencing appendicitis. Watchstanders dispatched the Air Station Sitka where an MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter took off and arrived on scene at 7:18 p.m. It hoisted the patient and transported him to awaiting EMS in Sitka. “Launching offshore and at night can be complex and challenging,” said Lt. j.g. Trevor Layman, Sector Juneau command duty officer. “Cases like this demonstrate how the hard work and consistent training from our members allow us to safely carry out missions and successfully help those in need.”
Cruise ship left Vancouver after strike affected delay
After a major delay, the 'Celebrity Eclipse', that was stuck in Vancouver due to an ongoing strike and was supposed to leave Canada Place on Aug 28 at 5 p.m., finally left port in the afternoon of Aug 29 en route to Hubard Glacier. The ship was able to leave after a fuel barge was detached. The Canadian Merchant Services Guild has been on strike since Aug 25. While Seaspan doesn’t directly assist cruise ships, it does tow barges like the one that was attached to the vessel.
