hello ,
So far I have not been able to find any brochure or specs regarding the maximum number of passengers allowed on board a SHETLAND 498 of 1979.
is there a sort of a "builders certificate" or something similar to be sure

Your help will be appreciated
Bernard

no hard and fast rule other than common sense and your insurance T&C's. You as skipper are responsible for everyone onboard so bear that in mind too. Other than that more weight more fuel you will burn.
