What is the Boat capacity for 14 foot boat?

In: Boats and Watercraft, Houseboats, Titanic [Edit categories]

Answer:

Typically speaking, the capacity on a boat can be calculated using a simple formula: Boat length (ft) x Beam (width of boat in feet) and divide this figure by 15. Let's assume your boat has a 5 foot beam (width of 5 feet): (14x5)/15=4.6667. With this is mind, you can safely carry 5 people, unless passengers are heavier than average, then you want to go with the lower end of 4 people.
