Logs?

[SmartMove]

Mods please feel free to move this this if it should be somewhere else.

OK, now at the risk of being crucified ... let me start by saying I keep a meticulous maintenance log.

Having sailed on a lake for 15 years we never keep a log, except a maintenance log. The five years previous to this last year the boat was in charter service and whenever thought to keep a log.

Now we are cruising and I expect we should be keeping a cruising/transit log, but our only log is a maintenance log. I don't even know what we should be putting in a log or how often we should be putting entries.

So now let the flaming begin -- hopefully someone will help me figure out how to do this amongst the flaming. Please remember I am a baby cruiser and be kind!

Thanks, Robyn

P.S. who else do you know who would be so honest about their ignorance -- help please.
