On the morning of November 3, 2013, the cargo vessel "Chiquita Scandinavia" played a vital role in a search and rescue mission for a 61-year-old sailor in distress aboard the sailing yacht "Scat." The incident unfolded 406 nautical miles northeast of Puerto Rico when Coast Guard Sector San Juan received an urgent call for medical assistance due to severe dehydration affecting the sailor. Given the remote location and absence of other nearby rescue resources, Coast Guard personnel reached out via the Automated Mutual Assistance Vessel Rescue System (AMVER) to the "Chiquita Scandinavia" for immediate support. Upon reaching the location, the crew of the "Chiquita Scandinavia" confronted challenging maritime conditions, which hampered their efforts to safely retrieve the dehydrated sailor from the "Scat." In a coordinated attempt to facilitate the rescue, the Liberian-flagged vessel "AS Vincentia" also arrived on scene, further assisting the effort. Recognizing the urgency of the situation, the Coast Guard's search and rescue team at Sector San Juan redirected the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter "Vigorous" to the distressed area. Additionally, they planned to deploy an MH-65 Dolphin helicopter crew from Coast Guard Air Station Borinquen, Puerto Rico, to rendezvous with the cutter. The two assets were dispatched to ensure the safe transfer of the sailor from the yacht to receive necessary medical treatment, highlighting the collaborative efforts of multiple organizations in emergency maritime scenarios.
