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, April 26, 1995 - Boqueron, Puerto Rico
Roy fetched ten gallons of water. Then he got the new radar, installed it, and tested it. To our joy, it worked perfectly.
I took a load of dirty clothes to the laundromat and washed them. Bought a dozen eggs while I was in town.
Roy painted the new spreader and then went to Mayaguez to get some stuff. He brought back a couple of big, delicious macaroons that we ate for dessert after supper. Boy, were they good!
There are some terrific caves about sixty miles from here. They have the second largest underground river in the world. We want to visit them before we leave Puerto Rico. Janie's husband, Ray, has arranged for a guy named Ricardo to drive us and another couple there in his station wagon, but he needs at least two more people to make it worthwhile. If they don't find someone pretty soon, we'll just rent a car and drive ourselves.
