At 1:30am, June 17th Hoylake Lifeboat crew were paged to launch for a medical evacuation from the 90m cargo ship “Kastor” anchored at the Liverpool Bar. Two lifeboat first aiders boarded the vessel to assess a crew member suffering from breathing difficulties, before transferring him to the lifeboat. He was taken to the Liverpool Pier Head where paramedics were waiting. With the casualty safely ashore, Hoylake Lifeboat returned to station.
