After years of boating in the waters of the Pacific Northwest and years of frustration in trying to find a log book that met their boating needs, Milo & Terri Walker of Seattle designed their own log book. With tabbed sections for vessel information, a cruising log, maintenance & fuel logs, a radio log with May Day instructions & VHF requirements, and vessel inventories for emergency equipment, spare parts & lights, their log book became an instant success. Out of a selection of 25 log books, the Walker Common Sense Log Book is the publisher's national marine distributor's best-selling log book coast to coast. No wonder it is on its sixth printing.
