Manufacturer’s Certification
All boats must comply with federal regulations regarding maximum capacities. The Specifications and
Dimensions table, listed later in this chapter, indicates the maximum weight, number of persons, and
maximum horsepower this vessel is rated to handle. Do not exceed these specifications. The information
on the certification plate does not relieve the operator
of responsibility. Use common sense and sound
judgement when placing equipment and/or passengers
in this vessel. Do not load to capacity in poor weather/
rough water. The number of seats does not indicate
passenger capacity in poor weather/rough water. At
speeds above idle, all passengers should be seated on
the seats provided.
Certification Plates
NOTE: The type of capacity plate will vary dependent on the local governing authority.
NMMA Plate
An NMMA Certification indicates that your boat has
been verified by the National Marine Manufacturers
Association (NMMA) to be in compliance with applicable
federal regulations and American Boat and Yacht Council
(ABYC) standards. Recreational vessels up to 20 feet
(6.1 meters) have passenger and cargo weight capacities
compliant with USCG regulations. Vessels 26 feet (7.9
meters) and under have passenger and cargo weight
capacities compliant with ABYC standards. Vessels over
26 feet have NMMA yacht certification.
Canadian Conformity Plate
A Canada Compliance Notice indicates that your boat has
been certified to comply with construction standards for
small vessels by Transport Canada (TC). Recreational
vessels up to 6 meters (19.7 feet) have passenger and cargo
weight capacities compliant with TC regulations. Vessels
over 6 meters are also compliant with TC regulations, but
do not state capacities on the plate.
Never carry more weight or passengers than
indicated on the certification plate, regardless of
weather or water conditions.
