On July 2, 2005 we remember the day,
one year ago, that we lost Charli.

Please join her friends and family in remembering the many good times we shared and enjoyed - whether it was a chat and a Carib beer at Spinnaker's or a day out at the races, time with Charli was always the best of times!

We miss you, Charli, but are grateful for the
"Lottsa Luv and Hugs" you gave us all.

This book is the remarkable life story of Charlotte Diane "Charli" Holt. A born adventuress with an insatiable appetite for learning, Charli set off, usually on her own, to explore the world, its people, and their customs.

Never believing in the word, "can't," Charli always found a way to achieve the impossible goals she set for herself; and she always managed to extract herself from a jam - as a single mother, in a relationship gone bad, or stuck hard aground on the Lady Charli, the 32' sailboat she captained for nearly 30 years. Charli returned to college in her thirties, worked her way up to a position of authority, then gave it all away to live her dream on the Lady Charli, working only as needed to support her lifestyle, and earning the love and respect of all those whom she met along the way.

Travel with Charli through her loves and losses, successes and disappointments, adventures and dangers. Meet her children and loves of her life as you travel with her to Fiji, the Australian Outback, a remote Venezuelan Indian village, and the Caribbean Islands, among other exotic locations. You'll have a rollicking good time along the way. By Laverne Sanders, Free-lance Editor.
