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.

Tuesday, April 25, 1995 - Boqueron, Puerto Rico
Roy spent the morning sanding and painting the replacement spreader, while I responded to some of the mail I received yesterday. In the afternoon, Roy went to Mayaguez to get a new pulley and belt for the alternator. I went to Boqueron and phoned Statpower about the inverter. They told me to phone Thursday and talk with Noreen. Then I went to the Post Office to mail some letters. Bought some grapefruit on the way back. Stopped at Schafer and Brown, but the radar hadn't come in yet. Later, I contacted them on VHF from the boat and found out it had come in. We'll pick it up in the morning.
