You've all been to wikipedia (and if not, why not) but the Merlin article is pretty rubbish, even the national Twelve's entry is better.

Anyone with a bit of know how can just edit the page to make it better, and this is free advertising for the class (and good for google rankings for the normal class website).

The single biggest omission is a photo, but it has to be copyright free or they'll take it down. So someone needs to submit one of their own photo's, with a copyright declaration I think.

I probably have some of vintage boats which may be appropriate - I have some nice ones of Iska(6) with cotton sails and Terrapin(36) and some other vintage ones from the vintage/cvrda events. Will peruse through tonight and see what modern ones I have too.
