We use a ring binder filled with pages we run off on the computer. Each
daily page has a header for:
persons on board
date
day of the week
time of sunrise / set
times of tides
In the main block it's pretty much open space. When coastal we just jot
notes like "left Los Angeles at 0900. Arrived Catalina xxx" When making
passage off soundings we try to maintain hourly entries of:
Course
speed (estimated)
log reading
lat / lon from gps
wind strength (estimated)
wind direction
any notes on sea condition
We don't record barometer readings but I suspect we would if we were in
latitudes of suspect weather.
Note also that we don't have speed or wind instruments so that data is
eyeball estimated.
We will make non-hourly entries to mark special events: "1023 - Point
Fermin abeam 3 miles...."
