Another great source for blogs about boating is SailBlogs - http://www.sailblogs.com While mostly they are about sailing, there are a lot of power boat blogs, too. Nice mapping tools as well.

» shiplog - Here is a different possiblity all together

http://MyShipLog.com has like six different logs like a Nautical, Inventory, Fishing, Fuel, etc..
It even allows you to add people to your boat as crew members so that you could have temporary guest contribute to your ship's logs. A blog could work but this site is made boaters who really want to document their boat properly. Heck you can even transfer all your boats logs to the new owner if you ever sell it and even keep a record of the logs for yourself, that is a big plus if you are going to the trouble of documenting your boat.

Best of all it is free...
