A Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew, forward-deployed to St. Paul, medevaced a man from the "Kari Marie" approximately 201 miles north of St. Paul, Alaska, on FEb 18, 2019. District 17 Command Center watchstanders received notification from the fishing vessel "Pacific Mariner" which was relaying communications for the "Kari Marie" after a crew member had suffered a compound fracture while aboard the vessel. District personnel directed the launch of a MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from Forward-Operating Location St. Paul to conduct the medevac. They also diverted an Air Station Kodiak HC-130 Hercules aircrew to provide communication coverage for the case. The man was transported to local emergency medical services personnel in St. Paul and was reported to have been in stable condition. On-scene weather was 4-foot seas, overcast skies, and an air temperature of 34 degrees with calm winds.
