Another vote for Evergreen Pacific. Everything in one place, well organized, but plenty of room for free-form entries to fit your preferences.

That said, a regular note pad works fine, too. Better still, a 3-ring binder with tabbed dividers.

The most important thing is to develop a system that works for you, and be consistent. Be realistic about how much detail you'll really want to record, and stick with that.

I scan my Evergreen Pacific pages in once in a while, so I have all my logs going back three boats. Obviously the maintenance and fuel records on prior boats are of little value now, but the cruising logs are nice to have handy.
