Proper Loading

Overloading or uneven loading can cause loss of
control, capsizing, or swamping, which may lead to
death or serious injury.
Adhere to the load capacity plate restrictions, and
always account for persons, gear, and all non-factory
installed ballast or other equipment.
Your boat is equipped with a maximum load capacity plate
indicating the maximum acceptable load as determined by the
manufacturer following certain Federal guidelines. In addition to
following these weight guidelines, it is critical that you properly
distribute this weight throughout the boat. If too much weight is
placed in one area it can have serious impact on the boat's
handling and control, which has the potential to lead to injury or
death.
The load capacity plate is used by boat manufacturers participating
in the National Marine Manufacturers Association certification
program. Your manufacturer has submitted your model for
inspection and compliance with their guidelines. The maximum
number of persons allowed on the boat has been determined by
the manufacturer and displayed on the capacity plate. This
information on the capacity plate applies under normal conditions
and special care must be used in any abnormal conditions. Check
the capacity plate on your boat and abide by these limits.
