🔍 Key Concepts

• Official vs. unofficial logbooks – when each is required under 46 CFR • Recordkeeping periods commonly required by Coast Guard regulations (months vs. years) • Purpose of keeping a logbook for marine casualty and inspection review

💭 Think About

• Think about how long the Coast Guard might reasonably want to see a vessel’s operating history when investigating an incident or doing an inspection. • Compare this retention period with other documents on board (e.g., station bills, drills records, oil record books) – is it usually very short, moderate, or fairly long? • Ask yourself: would one month give enough history for an inspector? Would more than a year be excessive for a small, unofficial log?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in 46 CFR Subchapter I or Subchapter L (depending on vessel type) how long logbooks or operating records must be retained. • Check whether the required period is expressed in months (e.g., 6 or 12) rather than days or years. • Confirm that the requirement applies even when an Official logbook is not required, focusing on the generic retention time for an inspector’s review.
