I was looking at the member list and it looks as if the first c-brat members are from Oct 2003, which means we have a 10 year anniversary coming up. Is this info correct?
 
I would think that the 10 year of this format of the C Brat group would be correct. The Oct 23 relates to the two moderators going to this server and format. There was a prior server at Microsoft with the same moderator. I am sure that our two Moderators can fill in the data on that and the reason for the transfer. Many of the early members were also active the other C Dory list--the C Dogs. The moderator of C Dogs retired from C dory boating, and that list ceased to exist in Feb 2006 (I bought his C Dory 22).

The discussion of that demise is at: http://www.c-brats.com/viewtopic.php?t=3060&highlight=cdog

There was some competition between the two sights, but there was a C Dory forum prior to the C Brats as we know the site today. I am not sure that the date of joining is all that significant--since the first few hundred plus members were mostly already involved with the C Dory family. There were also a few who are "listed" early who never posted, and a few who only posted a couple of times, but may still be "lurking"

In any case we all owe a lot to TyBoo and Da Nag!
 
Thanks Bob for the bit of history! The oct 2003 date would definitely be the beginning of this server running on PHPBB.
I have to say this is one of the best configured forum sites/communities I have encountered for my various hobbies - hats of to TyBoo and Da Nag!
 
Can't give thanks enough for all the work and dedication that TyBoo & Da Nag have done for all of us.

Please note the 12th Year Anniversary (this year) for the Catalina Offshore Adventure. This historic event predated the C-Brats and is beyond the 10 year anniversary.

This event was started by Mike Sealife as a C-Dog and he was joined by a few other oldtimers! Mike joins us again this year as a C-Dory emeritus!

This would be a good time to throw in a few bucks to the TIP JAR. There are expenses to keep this site up.
