Marinauts on the Brat Map

Sure seems like there are a lot of them. Bigger ones coming too! I wonder when they are going to have the first Naughty Nut round up?

I agree. There is no place where we can select our boat -- just "other". And it looks like a second couple is buying a Marinaut in Connecticut, which is a start of a good trend!

At the risk of raising the kind of issues that come up when we encourage our kids to leave home :roll: can I ask when it would be appropriate for the Marinauts to have their own forum? I know I am not a major contributor here, rather a student of the experience of others, but I like the idea of keeping the map for c-brats. The Ranger crews love their own place. Maybe an m-brats map would be a good first step?

IMHO, that will make a lot more sense when there are a lot of Marinaut owners. Unlike Ranger Tugs, there's just a small number of Marinaut owners (I don't know the actual hull number Les is on right now but it's <10 and I think 5 or 6). With so few owners, it only makes sense to have them here and greet them with open arms.
 
When Ben Toland went off to design and build the Cape Cruisers, these boats later ended up being manufactured as C-Dory ventures, and are on this site. The Marinaut is also designed by Mr. Toland, and don't forget Dave and Les's involvement, who have been C-Brat's members for years. In my opinion, the Marinaut belongs on this site for those reasons. She is a close cousin of the C-Dorys. Marinauts have their own forum. What interest would it serve to kick a handful of Marinaut owners from this site? I think it benefits everyone.

I agree, give the Marinauts a colored pin or put an "M" in the middle of "other". When you view the "others", you find a number of C Dories, including the 27, 26, 12 etc. Also the tugs are represented on that map. I suspect that is an easy modification for the moderators to make.

Setting up another forum is both expensive and time consuming. It keeps all of the Toland boats together--a good idea.

Now I really like that approach. Wish I'd thought of it.
 
If you have more than one C-Dory, how is the second boat listed on the Brat map? I can find Discovery our TomCat, but the 2006 22 Angler is not indicated.
