I do not remember the specs for the Merlin, but I can say that it was a pleasure to fly. In fact I learned to fly on a Merlin.
The Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum has a Merlin on display.

i flew a Merlin because it was the first dual surface glider.... In this age i am a bit shocked to see how rudimentary it was!! with the thin tubes and outriggers!!! but i loved it. had no major crashes outside my own stupidity.
