The lifeboat RNLB 'Alfred Albert Williams'of the RNLI station Bembridge was launched on Sep 23, 2022, to medivac a 70 year old woman from the ‘Anthem of the Seas’ at around 8:20 p.m. at the request of Solent Coastguard. The cruise ship had left Southampton earlier and was eight miles south of Bembridge. With the 'Anthem of the Seas' heading back to the Solent, it did not take long to transfer the casualty in a stretcher onto the lifeboat. The 'Alfred Albert Williams' then headed back to the Offshore Boathouse where an ambulance was to take the patient to St Mary’s Hospital, Newport. However just before recovering, they were advised that there would be a considerable delay in the arrival of the ambulance, so it was decided to take the casualty to Portsmouth instead. After a very short delay at the Camber waiting for an ambulance, the 'Alfred Albert Williams' returned to Bembridge and was recovered by 10:50 p.m.
