Following the O2 thread, I was just wondering what happens in North America when O2 is administered on a boat. Does the skipper call the coastguard to request further assistance?

OBXDIVEGUY:P.S. I'm sure LA County contacted the CG for the notification forms.
DaFireMedic:Ahhh, that would make sense. Its probably required of the responding agency. Would a private citizen on a boat be required to make the notification if local EMS was not notified, for instance if they went to shore themselves and transported in a private vehicle?
