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.

Friday, November 3, 1995 - On Way to Trinidad
Motored all night and all day. The wind remained below 15 knots and was often below 10, so we had an easy ride. Except for the swells, the sea was fairly flat. We lucked out again.
We're looking eagerly forward to getting to an English-speaking country. It will be nice to be able to understand what people are saying, and for them to understand us. On the other hand, Trinidad will probably be hotter than the pleasant temperatures we've gotten used to, and it will probably have mosquitoes. Yuk. We haven't been bothered by biting insects since we left Bonaire.
