ASTORIA, Ore. — The Coast Guard rescued a missing diver in Tillamook Bay, Oregon, Friday.
Coast Guard Station Tillamook Bay received a call from the Tillamook 911 dispatch after the diver was reported missing by friends at approximately 8 p.m.
A 47-foot motor lifeboat crew and a 25-foot response boat crew from Tillamook Bay and an HH-60 helicopter crew from Air Station Astoria were launched to the scene. Coast Guard personnel searched the shoreline and water for the man and located him near Cape Meares south of Tillamook Bay at 9:45 p.m.
The man was taken to Garibaldi, Oregon, where he was treated for minor hypothermia by a waiting emergency medical response crew.
The duties of Station Tillamook Bay include rough water rescues, maritime environmental protection, maritime law enforcement, boating safety and implementation of the commercial fishing vessel safety regulations. The station averages more than 150 search and rescue cases a year.
No name. No brains? Started his dive with a buddy in the bay right around the time the tide changed to outgoing? Waited 2 hours to notify he was late? Tide sucked him out the jetty and sent
him to Cape Mears where the chopper found him.
Lucky dummy.
Actually… the lifeboat found him not the chopper.
POR FAVOR, NO HABLO INGLES NECESITO SABER SI EL SUBMARINISTA QUE ENCONTRARON COMO SE LLAMA Y EN QUE ESTADO ESTA, GRACIAS
