Default More Vessels In Distress, F-18’s diverted to assist

I went out for dinner, when I came home I hear two more boats are in
distress. Vessel #1, name Kimber Lucky is being escorted to port by
ship callsign CHARLIE. Vessel #2, location 31-05N, 80-02W, about 110
Miles NorthEast of Jacksonville. 2 F/A-18’s have been diverted to
overfly the second vessel.

Freqs where comms regarding this SAR a
5399.6 USB (USS Enterprise Strike Group)
310.2500 (Callsign Screwtop, relaying comms.
156.8000 FM (Marine Channel 16) Hear USCG Mayport and another unid,
possibly SCREWTOP.
157.1500 FM (Marine Channel 23A) USCG

Also hearing comms on 243.0000 UHF Military Emergency freq, too many
radios going off at once, not sure if these comms are related.

These boats should feel lucky that there is a large military exercise in
the Atlantic off the Florida coast.
