Marine electronic logbooks, K-Log
Purpose of electronic logbooks
K-Log electronic logbooks are an electronic alternative to record
key navigation, engine watch, port calls and other operational activities onboard
vessels of all sizes. Our logbooks meet the specific reporting requirements of IMO,
SOLAS and flag states. Ship's officers are given an easy way to log all activities
onboard according to the requirements of the different recipients of the information.
Manually inserted information is automatically combined with data recorded from
the vessel's instruments such as time and position.
Available electronic logbooks
Our K-Log electronic logbooks are available for all vessel types. Currently the
following electronic logbooks are available:
-
Deck Logbook – Records navigational events related to the voyage
and operations onboard
