Still warm, but foggy in the morning and light sprinkles in the afternoon.
Roy rode his bicycle to Cobb's Marina and talked with the Assistant Manager. They charge $2 a foot to haul out, $1.50 a foot for the pressure wash, and another $2 a foot to put the boat back in the water. The daily rate while we're on the hard is $7.50 a day, which isn't bad at all. Everyone there seems very nice.
Roy also went by a lumber yard and found out he can get Honduras mahogany for $4.50 a board-foot or teak for $10 a board-foot. Next, he has to find someone who can steam-bend the boards.
In the evening, we turned the boat around so she's facing out. We couldn't do it last night, because the dockmaster's boat was in the way.
This Blog is our mother's logs from her sails aboard Jofian. Our mother, Clare Holt, wrote a log every day and after her first sail to Mexico, she bought a laptop to write and save her logs. She sailed when the World Wide Web was first created, there was not as much on the Internet back then, no Wi-Fi, Internet access was very limited. I know if she were sailing today that she would be putting her logs in a Blog, so I am doing it for her. Mom’s logs to Alaska are on saillogsalaska.blogspot.com.
