I think logbooks are a fantastic piece of advertising material for a dive centre. A logbook will be carried by every new diver for the next several years, promoting your centre to every diver they meet. Let me help you get it right.
I offer customised, bespoke logbooks for your dive resort! I can provide a number of options based on your particular needs and budget.

| Package | Cover thickness | Cover colour | Cover special | Page count | Page thickness | Page colour | Stitching |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 260g Art card | Full colour | Plain | 48 | 100g HVS paper | Black & white | Saddle stitching |
I only use saddle stitching (staples), not glue (adhesive binding) for my logbooks. Glue inevitably breaks apart, and divers start losing pages. We know how badly travellers treat their books – durability is important!
With saddle stitching we are limited to about 60 pages maximum. If you would like to use adhesive binding anyway, I can accommodate many more pages; usually up to 200 or so. This can be suitable for a tech or professional-orientated logbook.

Alternate sizes (A5, B5, B6)
Based on pocket size, and my own experience, A6 is a “sweet-spot”, where it is small enough to fit anywhere, but still large enough to fit everything you need from a dive.
