Pride of America crew responds quickly to 'man overboard |
||||||||||||||||
|
A crewman on the Pride of America fell overboard
this morning about 13 hours after the cruise ship left Honolulu Harbor and was
quickly picked up by crew members in a rescue boat. The Coast Guard was notified of the accident by Pride of America crew and classified the incident as a "self rescue.", Because the Coast Guard was not directly involved they had no other details, such as the condition of the crewman. A passenger traveling on the Pride of America's was on the Promenade Deck around 8:30 a.m.when he heard the announcement, "Code Oscar, Code Oscar." Looking over the side he did in fact see a man in the water.
Crew members quickly cleared the promenade deck and
lowered a boat for the rescue, which lasted 15 to 18 minutes. Everything
went smoothly and they where able to get the guy on board quickly. |
