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.

Boats over 25 or 26' do not require it, so it probably is not there. I have owned two 27 Fevers and don't remember ever seeing it.

Oh, I did not know this. Thanks for the info.

So how much weight and/or people does my 27 hold?

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

It's referred to as OR or Owners Responsibility. Basically just use common sense. If you have 14 people in the cockpit, it may be hard to explain to the CO.

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.

-That's why we have an old 24' Party Barge (aka The Poontoon)

i had 8 in destin...made things a little tight...still had a great time

that is funny stuff, I bet we could fit 30 of those on the Poon-toon!

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.
