Medevac off Kühlungsborn
On Jan 23, 2018, a 28-year old Norwegian crew member of the "Finnpartner" complained about strong chest pain and needed immediate medical treatment. At 3.30 a.m. the master informed the MRCC Bremen about the emergency. Due to fog no rescue helicopter could be deployed, instead the lifeboat "Arkona" of the DGzRS station Warnemünde was alerted and headed towards the ferry on its way from Travemünde to Malmö with a medical team on board. The ships rendezoused four miles NW of Kühlungsborn. The medical team and two crew members of the "Arkona" boarded the ferry and stabilized the patient before he was transferred onto the lifeboat which took him to Warnemünde where an ambulance was ready to transport him to hospital.
