2. Vessel Stability
The following maximum load has been used for assessing the stability and buoyancy comprising
• Manufacturer’s maximum recommended load per ISO 14946 1501kg
• Fuel, fresh water, other uids to maximum capacity of xed tanks 639kg
This assessment has been made assuming that
• The boat in the empty cra condion has a mass of 3381kg
• The boat in the light cra condion has a mass of 4129kg
• The maximum recommended engine outboard mass is 478kg
• All standard equipment is aboard.
Your boat was manufactured to specic stability and otaon standards for the capacity shown on the
cercaon plate. Maximum recommended load included the weight of all persons aboard, all
provisions and personal eects, cargo (if any) and all consumable liquids (water, fuel, etc). Any increase
from the recommended load capacies will put your boat in jeopardy of capsizing, swamping and/or
sinking. In addion, any changes to the masses aboard may signicantly aect the stability, trim, and
performance of the cra. Stability can be considerably aected by loose uids or weight within the
vessel. Keep the bilge area as dry as possible, and in rough weather or at planing speeds, keep all
openings, hatches, lockers, doorways, and windows closed to minimize ooding. Breaking waves are a
serious stability hazard. Finally, stability can be compromised when towing or liing heavy weights
using a davit or boom.
3. Load Capacity
The capacity plate, located near the helm, indicates the maximum weight and number of persons
your boat can handle under calm sea condions. Do not exceed the load capacies stated. A full
explanaon of this informaon can be found in the relevant secons of this manual.
The informaon present on the cercaon plate does not relieve the operator of responsibility. Use
common sense and sound judgment when placing equipment and/or passengers in your boat.
Do not exceed the maximum recommended number of
persons. Regardless of the number of persons on board,
the total weight of persons and equipment must never
exceed the maximum recommended load. Always use the
seats/seang spaces provided.
When loading the cra, never exceed the maximum
recommended load. Always load the cra carefully and
distribute loads appropriately to maintain design trim
(approximately level), and secure loose equipment when
underway. Avoid placing heavy weights high up.
