Princess of Acadia to the rescue

Approximately an hour after I took this photo, the Princess of Acadia responded to an injured crew member aboard the fishing vessel Compass Rose II. Also dispatched to the scene were a Comorant and Hercules helicopter out of Greenwood and the Coast Guard vessel Courtney Bay out of Saint John.  The ferry was the closest ship to the vessel and picked up the injured crew member.  Emergency responders were awaiting at the Saint John ferry terminal and brought the crew member to hospital.  A fantastic job by the captain, officers and crew aboard the MV Princess of Acadia for bringing the crew member safely back to shore.   More in the links below.
