Medevac off Terschelling
On May 11, 2017, at 4 p.m. the lifeboat "Arie Visser" was tasked to medevac an inured crew member of the "Maria Chris - NG 21" 50 miles north of Terschelling. The fisherman was bleeding violently and an evacuation was necessary. A rescue helicopter was also alerted which was on site 45 minutes earlier than the "Arie Visser" which needed two hours to the site. A doctor was winched on board of the fishing vessel. After a consultation, it was decided to hoist the patient on board the helicopter. "The Arie Visser" remained on standby until the patient was safely aboard the helicopter.
