    Gday all

    After looking at the capsize data I was thinking "I should get some of my mags and scan them". But scan them to where? So I thought of a wiki.

    Is it time for someone (could be me) to start a multihull wiki where people can post on subjects that interest them and it would be easier to search through than here?

    Anyone know best how to do this? Anyone interested?

    cheers

    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    That's a very good idea, imo. Can possibly become a very valuable site.
    Also for storing, definitions, links, etc.
    I'm certainly interested.

    I like the idea of a wiki, not only for the topic of multihulls, but for this site / forum in general.

    Something along the lines of a wiki for boaters, naval architects and marine engineers, which would be open to all topics that are considered on topic on these forums.

    That being said however, good quality scans tend to grow rather fast in size, and it would maybe be better to distribute them via sites like rapidshare, or even torrents, with those torrent files being available on the wiki.
