How are boat Capacity Ratings Given? What is Yacht Certified Mean with the Coast Guard- OR in Iowa

Boat capacity rules
Calculating Your Boat's Capacity. On boats less than 20 feet in length with no capacity plate, use the following rule of thumb to calculate the number of persons (weighing 150 lbs. each, on average) the vessel can carry safely in good weather conditions.

Larger recreational vessels, 26' and up typically fall into the "Yacht Certified" category, or not certified at all. The "Yacht Certified" label is bestowed upon a vessel by the NMMA (National Marine Manufacturing Association) because it complies with all applicable ABYC (American Boat and Yacht Council) standards.
