I'm posting to this topic because:
-- this forum seems to have the brightest and best, and
-- the radio log is partially on-topic here

The other night a group of us got into a discussion of whether there was a
law or regulation that required recreational boaters to maintain a log,
including a radio log of all contacts.

I always thought that, while a great idea and particularly a maintenance log
might simplify some insurance claims, it was not required for recreational
boating.

Can anyone shed light on this ... preferably with citation of an authorative
source??
