The US Coast Guard medevaced a 38-year-old injured crew member from the 'Xin Li Hai', en route from Rizhao to Vancouver, approximately 230 nautical miles southwest of Dutch Harbor, Alaska, on July 26, 2022. Watchstanders from the 17th Coast Guard District received a report from the bulk carrier on July 24 at approximately 5:20 p.m. requesting a medevac of a cre wmember who was suffering from severe abdominal pain. The ship was approximately 800 nautical miles southwest of Dutch Harbor at that time. The ship was advised to transit towards Dutch Harbor until they were in-range of the helicopter crew for the medevac. A Coast Guard Air Station Kodiak MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew from Air Station Kodiak arrived on scene at approximately 5:34 p.m. Tuesday, hoisted the crewmember, and transported him to Dutch Harbor where he was met by LifeMed for further transportation to Anchorage. Watchstanders diverted Coast Guard Cutter Kimball to the scene, repositioned the Air Station Kodiak MH-60 Jayhawk helicopter crew to Dutch Harbor, and launched an Air Station Kodiak C-130 Hercules crew with a second helicopter crew aboard from Kodiak to Dutch Harbor.
