Tanker crew rescued solo sailor
The 'Orange Ocean' rescued the solo boater Kirill Vladimirovich Mikhaylov, 53, resident of St. Kitts and Nevis, in the Atlantic Ocean, approximately 420 miles north of Puerto Rico, on Dec 6, 2024, after a fire aboard the 46-foot sailing vessel 'Poesterd' while transiting from Bermuda to the Eastern Caribbean Island of St. Maarten. Coast Guard Sector San Juan Command Center watchstanders received an unregisteredEPIRB signal on the morning alerting of a possible distress, and issued an Enhanced Group Calling and an Automated Mutual-Assistance Vessel Rescue (AMVER) callout notifying vessels transiting in the vicinity. The 'Orange Ocean' responded to the call for assistance request and diverted to the location of the distress signal. Once on scene, the tanker reported that the sailing vessel was on fire and sinking. The tanker crew launched a rescue boat and safely recovered the boater with no reported medical concerns.
