The MRCC had hired a government health service doctor from the Western Cape to provide medical assistance to the ship’s doctors while the vessel diverted towards Durban.

The Telkom Maritime Radio Services assisted with communications.

A SAAF BK-117 helicopter from 15 Squadron, Charlie Flight, was tasked to respond to Durban from Port Elizabeth, and a second SAAF helicopter, a SAAF Oryx from 15 Squadron, was prepared in Durban as the ship approached Durban.

At 4:42 PM, the Alick Rennie maritime rescue vessel was launched from our Durban maritime rescue station, accompanied by a Netcare 911 rescue paramedic and an IPSS rescue paramedic, to respond to the ship and await on scene.

At 5:30 PM, the SAAF 15 Squadron Oryx helicopter, accompanied by two Netcare 911 rescue paramedics and an NSRI doctor, and the SAAF 15 Squadron Charlie Flight helicopter, BK-117, accompanied by two NSRI rescue swimmers, responded from Durban.

Upon arrival on scene, 28 nautical miles off the east coast of Durban, the SAAF Oryx helicopter landed on the ship’s helipad.

The SAAF BK-117 helicopter and the maritime rescue vessel awaited on site while the Netcare 911 rescue paramedics and the NSRI doctor attended to the 5 medical ship patients, and the patients were transferred to the Oryx helicopter.

The medical treatment continued on the helicopter, and the 5 patients, 1 in critical condition and 4 in stable condition, were airlifted to a hospital in Durban.

On behalf of all the services involved, condolences are extended to the family, friends, and colleagues of the deceased.

It has been confirmed that all 5 patients are in stable condition and are recovering in the hospital.”
