A "log" is a name for a record book. On most ships and submarines, it is required that the captain or other ship's personnel maintain such a book. The ship's log is the record of all important information related to the operation of the vessel. It includes weather conditions, times of routine events, times when some significant incident occurred (and information about the incident), how many members of the crew are on the ship, what ports were docked at and when, etc. A ship's log must be kept up to date and filled in every day.
