2. Click 'Log a Trip' in the middle of the screen or select 'Add' in the top right corner.
3. If you have more than one boat, choose the right one.
4. To record your engine hours at the start, pick 'Engine Start Hours' and then click 'Save'.
5. If your boat has a generator, select 'Generator Start Hours' to record its hours, then click 'Save'. This step is optional.

To finish your trip:
