I think it's kind of a fun thing to do and is probably one of the elements that ought to have been in SH4, especially since you don't get the captains bunk like you do in SH3 and you've got to find something to do on those long transits.

On a long patrol in any sub sim it's probably not a bad idea to note stuff down like that, as it can help you keep track of your plan for the mission. That you can turn it into a roleplaying element is great fun and not at all 'nerdy' in my opinion, after all, we are all pretending we're sub skippers, so why the hell not!

An interesting thing you can do is keep track of your crew and their abilities with such a journal and that could actually prove more useful than simply for a bit of fun.
