Capt, it was an old ‘copter, but fully rigged for SAR. Lights, winch, and very well handled. I noted that his hover attitude kept the spray away from the folks in the water. Very rapid extractions as well. Impressive to watch, but I have no clue as to what entity was involved.
Edit: Capt, you have identified the helicopter. I thought it was a Huey, and it kinda is. Mystery solved. Thanks.
