The rain was coming down pretty good when I got up, so I put the hose in the intake pipe for the water tank. Needless to say, the rain immediately stopped. Works like a charm every time.
Roy took off bright and early on his bike and got his hair cut. The barber did a good job this time. Didn't cut it too short.
I bought some groceries and then sanded and varnished the cabin sides again.
Poor Ron on the next boat had been planning on putting his boat back in the water this weekend, but today he found out the bearing in the steering mechanism had frozen, and he can't even get at it or the drive shaft without cutting off the rudder and part of the keel. It's a steel boat, so that isn't easy. He just bought the boat a few weeks ago, so this is the first time he's had a chance to work on it. It's a real shame, especially since he's such a nice guy.
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.
