My recommendation - which I have done for 30 years now, is to buy numbered ruled ledgers from any stationery supply house. They look nice, are easy to find, are of consistent size, and will keep all your treasured memories easy to reach on the bookshelf - just use a label maker on the spine with the vessel's name and time period covered. I used to paste in Polaroids of visiting crew and that still brings back memories, even though the photos have faded over the years. Some crew members have put in sketches and poems etc. Perhaps today a digital photo printed out would do the trick and if they fade they're now easy to replace, and will be in the future - assuming there are still computers in 30 years.
