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.

Sunday, March 5, 1995 - Riviera Beach, FL
Roy applied the finishing coat to the hull, so I couldn't sand and varnish, which was fine by me, as I was tired. Rode around on my bike and got info on the nearby fuel dock. Also checked at Boat Owners' Warehouse for a batten, but they didn't have the size we need. Spent several hours getting caught up on my correspondence. Also, talked with my daughter Nancy on the phone. Found out she and Jim have split, and she's bought a new house. Jim has the boat, but Nancy's going to get another. She's also going to visit us in Aruba this summer. (Assuming we ever get to Aruba.) I did some preliminary charting of our possible course and phoned the marina in Xanadu. They said the water was deep enough, they charge $40 a night, and no reservation is required.
