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, May 7, 1995 - Boqueron, Puerto Rico
Spent the morning sanding a lot of places that needed it. Roy sealed them, and when the sealant dried, I varnished them. They look better already.
Roy felt a little better today, but not much.
I thought the problem with my computer had been solved, but it's refusing to boot up again. I've tried to boot from the diskette as well as the hard disk, but the results were the same, so it's not a drive that's at fault. Tried it both on AC and battery power. Thought maybe the battery was low, but Roy checked the voltage, and it was fully charged. I hope there's a Radio Shack in Aruba, so I can get it repaired. I don't want to take it to Mayaguez, because then we'd be stuck here for two more weeks, so I'll just have to write the log by hand.
