ESSEL STABILITY AND BUOYANCY
The following maximum load has been used for assessing the stability and buoyancy
comprising
Manufacturer’s maximum recommended load per ISO 14946
1052 kg
Fuel, fresh water, other fluids to maximum capacity of fixed tanks
349 kg
This assessment has been made assuming that
The boat in the empty boat condition has a mass of
1890 kg
Weight crew
600 kg
Luggage
50 kg
Essential safety equipment and life raft
53 kg
The maximum recommended engine outboard mass is
450 kg
Note: All standard and extra equipment listed in this manual is aboard
Your boat is manufactured to specific stability and flotation standards for the capacity
shown on the certification plate. Maximum recommended load included the weight of all
persons aboard, all provisions and personal effects, cargo (if any) and all consumable
liquids (water, fuel, etc.). Any increase from the recommended load capacities will put
your boat in jeopardy of capsizing, swamping and/or sinking.
Also, any changes to the masses aboard may significantly affect the stability, trim, and
performance of the boat. Stability can be considerably affected by loose fluids 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 flooding. Breaking waves are a serious stability hazard. Finally, stability can be
compromised when towing or lifting heavy weights using a davit or boom.

SIGN
The load capacity plate, located on the portside helm near the door, indicates the
maximum weight and number of persons your boat can handle under calm sea
conditions. It also states the maximum engine power and weight. Do not exceed the
capacities stated. A full explanation of this information can be found in the relevant
sections of this manual.
The information present on the certification plate does not relieve the operator of
responsibility. Use wise and sound judgment when placing equipment and passengers on
your boat.
