Thinking of making this to go on the inside of the engine hatch. Just to help with keeping track. Is this necessary or unnecessary? One of my good friends is a boat mechanic, so we just take care of everything at my shop.

I don't see anything wrong with it. Everyone is diff. I was keeping track of mine in a manual but gave that up last year. Now I just do it. Because most of us do maint on used boats ourselves records just don't matter as much. New boats Yea then have the dealer keep it.

Great reference for O.E part numbers and fluid types.

I just keep a file for each vehicle with all the receipts for parts/work done. The receipts have dates and are kept in order. Like BB I do all my own work (except detailing...) so other than the receipt there isn't much to track.

I keep a journal detailing everything done to the boat. Dates, price and scope. Seems to be a big deal at resale. But I like the sticker!

I put all information on my iPhone.
Part numbers, dates and engine hours of last service.

I have a file for every vehicle I own in Dropbox so I can access it anywhere. It lists the part numbers for everything I use and order.
