In the early hours of November 3, 2014, at 03:15 a.m., the National Sea Rescue Institute (NSRI) Port Elizabeth received an urgent call regarding a 27-year-old Indian man injured onboard the vessel "Chambesy." The ship, which was en route from Richards Bay to Rotterdam, was diverting to the nearest port of call, Port Elizabeth, due to the crew's concerns over the man's serious pelvic injury, which was suspected to involve internal bleeding after he fell aboard. As the "Chambesy" approached the shores of Port Elizabeth around 09:15 a.m., the NSRI Port Elizabeth volunteer sea rescue duty crew mobilized quickly. The NSRI rescue vessel "Spirit of Toft" was dispatched to the scene, located two nautical miles off the coast. Upon arrival, the crew successfully assisted the patient, who was able to walk, onto the rescue craft. He was swiftly transported back to the port, where the ship's agent facilitated his immediate transfer to a local hospital for further medical attention.
