Marine Electronic Logbooks
An electronic alternative to record key navigation, engine watch, port calls and other operational activities on board vessels of all sizes. Marine Electronic logbooks must meet the specific reporting requirements of IMO, SOLAS and flag states. Manually inserted information is normally combined with data recorded from the vessel's instruments such as time and position. Typical marine electronic logbooks are:
- Deck Logbook – Records navigational events related to the voyage and operations on board
- Dynamic Positioning Logbook – Manual recording of operations related to Dynamic Positioning (DP) operations
- Engine Logbook – Records engine events related to the engine and machinery operation
- Oil Record Book – Records events related to oil and dirty water as required by IMO's MARPOL convention
- Operational Log – Records events related to vessel operation, i.e. performance, cargo handling and maritime operations. The Operational Log will typically need some customisation to owner's requirement and trade.
- Radio Logbook – Records events relevant to radio traffic as required by IMO and the flag states
- vCatch Electronic Logbook – Complete electronic logbook system for fishing vessel and authorities.
- Dynamic Data Logger – Records all marine and vessel related activity.
- Elog Electronic Logbook - Enter logbook entries manually through a simple Web interface.

Famous quotes containing the words marine and/or electronic:
“People run away from the name subsidy. It is a subsidy. I am not afraid to call it so. It is paid for the purpose of giving a merchant marine to the whole country so that the trade of the whole country will be benefitted thereby, and the men running the ships will of course make a reasonable profit.... Unless we have a merchant marine, our navy if called upon for offensive or defensive work is going to be most defective.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“The car as we know it is on the way out. To a large extent, I deplore its passing, for as a basically old- fashioned machine, it enshrines a basically old-fashioned idea: freedom. In terms of pollution, noise and human life, the price of that freedom may be high, but perhaps the car, by the very muddle and confusion it causes, may be holding back the remorseless spread of the regimented, electronic society.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
