Astoria Ore. – A Coast Guard MH-60T Jayhawk aircrew rescue a man Wednesday, who was reportedly experiencing a medical emergency aboard a boat near Cloverdale. 

Watchstanders at U.S. Coast Guard Sector Columbia River received a report at approximately 2 p.m. of a 56-year-old man who was fainting aboard a 16-foot aluminum boat adrift in the Nestucca River.

Watchstanders diverted a U.S. Coast Guard Air Station Astoria MH-60T Jayhawk Medium-Range Recovery Helicopter aircrew, which was conducting training near Tillamook Bay, to assist the man.

A Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office search party reported they had located the man aboard the boat, which was ashore near Cloverdale.
