Another warm, sunny day. I wanted to paddle up the San Sebastian River, but it's varnishing time. I spent the entire day sanding and varnishing the upper part of the doghouse. Just got finished before dark. It's lucky it was such a warm, dry day, so the wood was warm and the varnish dried okay.
Roy installed the new switch on the diesel heater and the air pipe. After lunch, he took the curtain with the wrecked-out zipper to a canvas place about five miles from here and got lost several times along the way. The woman who owns the shop is the sister of the dock master in Morehead City. He had given us her phone number while we were there. She's going to bring the curtain to the boat tomorrow afternoon.
Roy also phoned an electronics repairman about the radar. He'll be out tomorrow afternoon also.
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.
