A Jayhawk helicopter and an HC-144 Ocean Sentry were sent to rescue the man who suffered a large laceration to his face after a tight line was released and hit him.
A video from the Coast Guard shows the man being pulled up to the helicopter in a cage.
The man received first aid before he was taken to the hospital. The Coast Guard said he was stable.
