On January 31, 2021, at approximately 7:50 a.m., an urgent distress call was received from the 'Coral Stichy', which was located three miles off the coast of Hartlepool. The situation was critical as a crew member on board had suffered a suspected stroke. The Humber Coastguard swiftly alerted the Hartlepool RNLI volunteer crew, who were paged at the same time. Responding promptly, the RNLI's all-weather lifeboat departed at 8:10 a.m., reaching the vessel just eight minutes later. Upon arrival, two RNLI crew members boarded 'Coral Stichy' to assess the patient's condition and provided immediate medical care. Shortly after, a Coastguard helicopter arrived on scene and lowered a paramedic onto the ship's deck to assist in treating the casualty. In a coordinated effort, both the patient and the paramedic were winched into the helicopter, which promptly transported them to James Cook University Hospital in Middlesbrough for further treatment.

On January 9, 2015, the tanker 'Coral Sticho' experienced engine malfunction while navigating off the coast of Brunsbüttel. The vessel, which was en route from Bützfleth, required immediate assistance. The tugboat 'Wulf 7' played a crucial role by securing the tanker in place on Neufeld Roads for several hours. The situation was eventually brought under control, and the 'Coral Sticho' was successfully moored at Mützelfeldt Yard at 11 p.m.
