A crewmember from the fishing vessel Debbie Sue alerted the Coast Guard around 9:45 a.m. Saturday that a 61-year-old man on board was experiencing chest pains.
The vessel was 75 miles off the coast at the time.
A Coast Guard helicopter was dispatched and, once on the scene, hoisted the man onboard.
