The captain of the 'CMA CGM Forte Ste Marie' radioed UK Coastguard's Humber Operations Centre on July 28, 2018, at 11:30 a.m. requesting assistance after a member of his crew complained of suffering abdominal pain. The unladen container vessel was at anchor two miles off the Tyne. It was decided that the best option for the seaman was to be taken off his ship by lifeboat and then taken to hospital by ambulance so he could be given a proper medical examination. Tynemouth RNLI all weather lifeboat launched at 11:46 .m. and sped to the ship. The casualty was able to walk and was assisted down the ship's gangway and on to the lifeboat by the volunteer crew. Once on board the lifeboat the casualty was taken to North Shields ferry landing where he was passed into the care of members of the Tynemouth Volunteer Life Brigade who took him to hospital.
