capacity plate

[dizzyspots]

The capacity plate on our 74 Airslot 185 Sport O/B is badly faded. Where can I find this information and where can I order a replacement decal??

anybody? found a source for the replacement plate...still need source for the specs?

Have you checked the History section? There might just be a 74 Catalog with the Airslot.

Lots of catalogs from 70 thru 79..but none have capacity info except HP rating...looking for passenger load and max load...

personally I'd make it whatever I wanted it to be and get a local sign ship to make it... It doesn't have to be pretty to be legal and as long as it says SOMETHING the cops will be satisfied... well maybe not 35 people/ 4000 lbs :)

Search the LINKS section on this forum...I know there was a shop posted there who makes spec plates...and for weight and passenger capacity on your boat, use the V18 specs...if they aren't EXACTLY the same, they'll be w/in useable limits...

anybody got specs for the 18?...Stink?...

Specs from my 82 18 Fisherman,
5 persons or 900 Lbs
2315 Lbs Persons, Motor, Gear
150 Hp Motor

was able to clean up the plate...then lemon juice and a candle...:)

here's the numbers: Max HP 165
Passenger Load: 750 pounds
Total Pax, Motor and Gear 1210 pounds

total weight seems a bit lite for an almost 19 foot boat?

oh well...it is what it is...
thanks for the help

My V20 has a max capacity of 1900lbs If i remember correctly. Always found it odd that a 2' shorter boat can hold more.
