Greetings all at PTSA,

I imagine that most of you are familiar with Oliver Widger, AKA, Sailing With Phoenix. This Friday, October 2 at 0700 he will depart Point Hudson for his solo non-stop circumnavigation. No small commitment. We are organizing a flotilla sendoff and would love as many people as possible to attend and wish him a safe voyage. He plans to return to Port Townsend after the approximate 9-month voyage. PT has given him so much support over this last year with the boat refit and education. Hoping we can carry that support onto the water.

People are encouraged to come out on the water in their boats. Those that cannot, can gather at the Point Hudson jetty boardwalk and out on the point.

Please spread word in the hopes that we can make this a proper Port Townsend sendoff!

Cheers,
Ian Weedman (Brion Toss Rigging)
