Immediate launch of ALB pager activated by HMCG as a means of quickly alerting RNLI personnel in the lifeboat station to a medical emergency that occurred onboard the Scottish Fisheries Museum (SFM) historic vessel, Reaper, which was moored on the Middle Pier Anstruther Harbour, directly opposite the lifeboat station.
 
A member of the Reaper crew has suffered a suspected cardiac incident onboard, below decks and was receiving CPR from some of his elderly SFM colleagues. East Neuk First Responder, already on scene, along with 4 x RNLI crew took over CPR and airway management for over an hour. Air Ambulance and NHS SORT team arrived on scene with Lucas machine, whilst RNLI Crew assisted with fluids and evacuating casualty to land ambulance for onward transport to awaiting Air Ambulance. Additional responding RNLI crew provided a cordon around the incident and supported family of the casualty.
