Placard Location?
Looking for the placard that tells you what the weight/people rating of the boat is. I must be a dumb ass, I can't find the damn thing.

There are no ratings for that I believe. Just gotta have enough life jackets for all on board.

That'd be a hard issue to enforce if there are no laws on limits. Don't know for sure, just what I recall being told yrs ago.
But I agree responsibilty has gotta come into play.

Mine does not have one, but I don't see how that could even be an issue. Mine is crowded with 5 people, 6 would flat out suck. I couldn't imagine any more people than that in a 27....of course no one rides in the cabin, too f'n hot and rough where I live.

I think this is one of those things in life that could well remain a mystery for most.
If one absolutely had to have the answer, one could load the boat till it went down. Thereafter considering the max to one or two less than that number!
Should be done with "real" people, skinny crack whores would skew the results.

Well, I guess 6 is the definate max... And that's assuming they don't ever sleep like someone said before. 
I like skinny chicks anyways!
My Scarab 21' had a person rating of 8 people... and that was about 6"-8" less cabin space that the 27 Fever. So, I'm sure if there WAS a rating it would probably be far higher than what is possible to actuallly carry responsibly.
