MY 89 stickers show Model V20 I/O 2085 lbs persons and gear. The other sticker above that reads 7 persons or 1050 lbs max. I guess the difference between these numbers would be the weight of the engine (165 hp I/O in my case) and a full fuel tank (60 gals)

We made about a 4 mile trip to a real nice white sandy point/cove just west of Mexico Beach...made TWO trips to shuttle all out there...planned to be a while...after about an hour United States Air Force patrol boat and told us "target practice was about to commence in the area and we'd have to leave...they were gonna shoot down a drone...asked if I had time to shuttle two loads..."no"...boarded 11 adults/juveniles and took off through 2-3 footers, then shower...made it fine, but REAL concerned, especially bustin' breakers to get back into creek...

USAF dude was nice, but could tell he wasn't messin' around...plus he was packin!....all I had packed was a cooler...guess I coulda thrown ice and drinks at him... ;) ;D...

Airforce Dude pack'n ??? No Worries.....they don't get real bullets for those guns anyway ;D They just get the cool missles for the planes.....so unless he had a Raptor in his holster....... :o Besides, if you would have told him you where armed with a cooler full of beer and soda, they might have postponed the target practice until you left 8)........

Gimme your cell# and next time this happens, I'll call you...don't know if Raptor or what, but it was holstered...not to mention others racked inside pilot-house... ;)...
