Can be reset independently of other trip functions.

This is the log for recording individual trip distances, it
displays the distance travelled from the time the function
was started in nautical miles. It must be remembered that
this is the distance sailed through the water, not over the
ground. It also forms part of the calculation for Average
Speed. A particularly useful feature is that when reset prior
to the start of the race, the Timer counts down to zero, the
Trip Log (and any other trip functions that have been reset)
start automatically.
