Default Good News, Bad News

Monday (9/1) afternoon Skip Allan was picked up by a commercial vessel and he is safely on his way to a Southern California port, expected to arrive sometime Tuesday. From Sunday's position reports Wildflower was approximately 350 miles west of Santa Cruz, experiencing gale conditions and running downwind bare polled. Apparently Wildflower sustained some damage and Skip felt that he could not safely continue his voyage so he called for assistance. Sorry I don't have more information than this but most important, Skip is safe. If I learn anything more I will post.
