Does anyone know what the official coast guard rules are in regard to the number of people allowed on a boat?
I've heard that as long as you do not exceed weight capacity you are OK, but not sure if that is true.
Capacity on name plate is 10 persons or 1600lbs.
I want to go out with myself and 3 other adults along with our 3 kids and their 4 kids = 11 people.
However as the kids are all 4-10yrs old, the total weight of all passangers and gear will only be around 1300lbs.
Thoughts?
