PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL-- The daughter of a man who disappeared while sailing from Puerto Rico to Florida is safe.
Teresa Brown says her dad, Charles Collins, turned up in Nassau to fix a rudder.
The U.S. Coast Guard had asked boats to be on the lookout for him after he was reported missing.
He was en route from Puerto Rico to Florida.
The Georgia native has been living aboard a 33-foot sailboat for three years.
According to his family, once provisions are complete, Collins will continue to the northern islands of the Bahamas, turn an easterly path towards Florida and sail up the coast until he reaches Titusville.
He plans to keep within radio range for the remainder of his route.
