Default Recommendations for hosting a website to organize crew & visitors for my boat

Can anyone recommend a web-site where I can do a combination of:

- Being a resource for cruising guests before and after they come day
sailing on our boat. e.g. Before, provide information about the boat.
After, see pictures of the trip, rather then me having to email them
around. -- goal to increase the fun factor for guests, while reducing
the work of sending pictures around for me.

- Being a resource for racing crew. Information on coming practices
and races, results of races and pictures, etc. - goal to increase the
fun factor for crew, create community, provide instant access to crew
for information they might need about the boat, working a specific
racing position, etc.

- Being a resource for myself to keep track of maintenance tasks
pending on the boat, components I need to buy.

- Being a resource for specifics on the boat, height, anchor stetup,
rigging sizes, part numbers, etc. that I can access from my cell
phone.


You could use a wiki for that purpose eg
http://wiki.splitbrain.org/wiki:dokuwiki

As an example: http://www.filmtanzprojekt.de/doku.php
(uses dokuwiki)
