Designed for owner-skippered, small and midsize craft, this expanded and updated log book and organizer helps amateur boaters maintain detailed, permanent records of essential information about their vessels. As useful on a day trip as it is on a weekend jaunt or a recreational cruise--and for skippers of sail boats as it is for those of power crafts--this carefully structured handbook serves as one central source that when completed becomes not only a comprehensive legal record but a memento of a cruising year. Divided into 10 sections, the contents cover such topics as getting organized through accumulating basic boat specifications, equipment maintenance records, and detailed contact information for suppliers, as well as chapters on setting chore and watch procedures, route and passage reporting, and GPS waypoints and additional sections on emergency preparedness, expense and supply tracking, and capturing memories.
