One possible vehicle for Ken's suggestion would be a Wiki. It is more topic oriented than discussion oriented.  It allows for editing, history, linking, etc.  There is no reason why these articles could not go directly to Wikipedia itself, or they could start off in draft form on the list or a independent wiki.  I don't follow any boating wikis, but a quick search only turned up 

http://www.wikicruising.com
http://captainwiki.com

But they seem to be more destination oriented than equipment oriented. I have no idea how popular they are.  

There are lots of sites out there that will let you set up a wiki for free, similar to yahoo/google pages, groups, etc.

Just a thought.....
