Hoist Camp Issue Paper ATC Mobile proposal for Fall Hoist Camp

Request:

ATC Mobile would like to solicit input from the local fishing fleet on what the terms would be to enable a 3 days of helicopter hoisting to local fishing vessels. We are looking for at least 4 vessels with a mix of equipment and vessel configurations to act as role players for helicopter hoisting. Would prefer at least one vessel with an open stern and at least one with a bow hoist as the primary target. Several Coast Guard H65 “Dolphin” and H60 “Jayhawk” helicopters would fly to these vessels sprinkled throughout the local waters, no more than 40 miles offshore and practice a variety of hoists with the Coast Guard rescue basket and litter, as well as rescue swimmer. Time on-scene for vessel would be from 1400-2100. This training would occur on or around December 8, 2020. A scope of work and a purchase order will follow after the closing of a Request for Quote from a Combined Synopsis/Solicitation. Understanding what the fishing fleet would need to help make this happen is what we aim to find out. Your input would be greatly appreciate to help us make this training goal a reality.

The following pictures provide examples for the types of vessel configurations that would provide excellent training.
