Marine board safety recommendations
The MCIB found the skipper of the Róise Catriona was the only person on board qualified to use a special medical kit at the time of a sea tragedy last year.
Gerard Harrington had to maintain radio contact with doctors at Cork University Hospital (CUH) and the rescue helicopter, manoeuvre the vessel, and recover fishing gear after his crewman Sean Lynch sustained a severe head injury on board the vessel in the early hours of May 8, 2008.
