The person/load capacity is determined by the availability of proper
seating on the canoe. Acceptable seating determines the number of
passengers, not the overall load capacity.
Back Country
™
Do not exceed the certified maximum capacities under any
circumstances. Overloading will reduce freeboard and increase
the likelihood of swamping, especially in heavy seas. Overloading
causes handling to become sluggish, making it difficult to react
quickly.
