See response in other thread. On bridge maybe seven with heavy dingy, maybe 12 max no dingy. Kinda depends on flat water, head sea or beam sea and how rough. In rough water one max on my 47 bridge.

I would expect that many if you were smuggling illegals. The salon floor wont stand nearly that much weight. The pilot house probably holds five comfortably. I would never carry more than a dozen folks and that is for flat water. We have had that many aboard for a special peoples cruise.

Yes I saw it and much appreciated!...I'm not sure how to drive this site as yet so wasn't sure where I was posting my question! I would imagine based on your response there would be another 12 distributed between the Salon and Pilothouse for a possible max headcount of 24 to 25?!.....this helps alot

the owners hand book on the 4550, had max weight for the flybridge @600# ( 3 x 200 or 4x 150). I do use the same for my 4788 underway. Also, limits for the bowsprit and swimplatform. I do not understand why the same information is not in the OM for the 4788. Bayliner must have done stability testing on its final design, must have done the same for builders certification. Ask them. or use the limits for the 4550.

Our 3988 is rated for just over 1,000#. You should find the manufacturers rate plate on the bulkhead near the ladder.
