Medevac off Thurso
The Thurso Lifeboat was tasked to carry out a medevac from the "ATlantic Mermaid" on Aug 16, 2012, after a crewman took ill during a transatlantic journey. The medevac request was received from Port Services who were concerned for the welfare of the crewman but his condition was not urgent enough for him to be airlifted and at that time the vessel was still in the Atlantic Ocean. The Taylors RNLI lifeboat launched 36 hours later in flat sea conditions just after midnight on Aug 18 with a doctor on board and the crew rendezvoused with the cargo vessel on the outskirts of Thurso Bay. The cargo vessel was able to lower the casualty onto the lifeboat using a basket stretcher where the crew were able to take him safely ashore where an ambulance was waiting to transport him to hospital. No further details were available on the crewman’s condition.
