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, May 10, 1995 - On way, Aruba
Glorious day! Blue sky, white, fluffy clouds, blue water frosted with whitecaps, perfect temperature, great sailing wind. We easily made six knots without using the engine.
We're cutting right across the Caribbean Sea, non-stop from Boqueron to Oranjestad, Aruba, a distance of approximately 360 miles. Should take us three days.
