On August 3, a significant medevac operation occurred involving the "King Daniel," a vessel anchored in the designated anchorage area 5 off the coast of Rotterdam, located at coordinates 52°08.8 N, 003°43.0 E. The incident involved the 2nd engineer, a 36-year-old Georgian national, who sustained a serious injury when a steel cable snapped, striking him between the eyelid and helmet. The unfortunate accident transpired while he was performing maintenance tasks, specifically during the lifting of a heavy block. Upon realizing the severity of the situation, the crew promptly requested a medevac at 11:20 a.m. The KNRM lifeboat "Jeanine Parqui" from Hoek station responded swiftly and was on the scene by 12:15 p.m. The injured engineer was able to climb down the ladder and board the lifeboat, which then transported him to Berg Port, arriving at 1:15 p.m. for immediate medical attention at the Harbour Hospital in Rotterdam. Reports indicate that once his ship docked later that afternoon, the crew member was anticipated to rejoin the vessel.
