So after reading some of the comments about capacity and thinking about it, 700 lbs capacity seems unbelievably low for a boat that length and width. I did some snooping around and found a Smokercraft brochure for that boat in 2010. Back then the boat was rated as max capacity 1250lb. I am wondering if Smokercraft is rating the boat for 700lbs for people only. Seems weird that they would call it max capacity though. The 2019 catalog has the same rating 700lbs max capacity. Just can't wrap my head around a boat that size only being able to handle 700lbs.
