Man, Dog Rescued at Sea

An 86-year-old man and his dog were rescued from his disabled sailboat, the Willow Wind, after he went missing while sailing from Astoria, Oregon, to Pago Pago, American Samoa. The Coast Guard located the boat about 460 miles off San Diego after an emergency beacon alert; rough seas delayed the rescue until a nearby vessel could take them aboard. A Coast Guard helicopter later flew them to San Diego, where the man was taken to hospital for evaluation.
