Can you use SketchUp for mechanical work?
Yes, as far as modeling goes. You need SketchUp Pro for presentation (production) drawings.

I am in a aircraft club and wish to have a CAD program our club can use and share ideas with.
Can we save drawings in a comnon place like our web site?
This is a function of your OS and networking setup.

Is Sketch up suited to collaboration by members of varying levels of CAD skill?
Sketchup is not a true multi-user platform. It can be used by those with varying levels of CAD skills.

Will it cost much? Our club runs on dues, so we have very limited financial resources.
Sketchup Free is free.

Please suggest Sketch up features, or tutorials related to each of the above question?
Youtube is a excellent source of tutorials. The problem isn't getting help, it is in understanding, and using it.
There is no single CAD application that can do everything WELL. There are many other considerations then posted above for building a comprehensive, multi-user Cad system. There are few CAD programs can provide all functions in one application. If your budget is restrictive, IMO Sketchup is a good place to start.
