No one in my family has any interest in my log books. They aren't diaries, they are log books, with mostly one line entries every 4 hours at sea. Some are from sailing boats, others tugs, freighters and fishing boats, etc.
I'm not looking for someone to write a book or any other commercial enterprise, I just think it would be a shame to toss them all in a dumpster.
Any ideas?

Small maritime museums where you sailed might be interested in them. I"m thinking of a museum in the Caribbean where you ran your charter.

If you were going to dispose of them so they don't take up space, you could have a print shop cut off the spines and then you could run them through a sheet fed scanner and digitize them into PDFs first. I did that with some of my old ham radio logbooks from when I was a kid.

I'm nearing my expiration date, so I'm not trying to make space.
