One of my friends' ...

This is a tricky one (for me at least). Does anybody know which sentence is correct and why?

1) One of my friends' mothers has a boat.

2) One of my friends' mother has a boat.

The 2nd one is correct. "Mother" has to be singular as you're talking about one special mother only: The mother of one of your friends. All the best -Pemmican
