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.

Wednesday, March 23, 1994 - Haulout, Norfolk, VA
What a terrific day! Temperature went all the way to 80! Clear, sunny, beautiful. Perfect varnishing weather, so I put another coat on both toerails and rubrails. Roy started painting the area between the toerails and rubrails. He has also removed the old sail tracks and ordered new ones. The old ones were in such bad shape, Roy could break them into pieces with his bare hands. We could have had a real disaster in a strong wind.
