Had 8 on the boat this weekend, which is what the seating configuration we have is with the back to back seats. Figured just under 2,000 lbs total with fuel, beer, snacks, gear and size of bodies. Did take a while to get on plane, but after playing with trim tabs, engine trim, etc, was still able to get up to 41 mph on GPS. Next time I will put big bodies more in the middle as opposed to on the back bench.
I know the boat is rated for 10, but doubt I will try to test that limit. Can't imagine the same size boat being rated for 12 and having that many on board.
Did not have a problem pulling 3 on a tube or getting wakeboarders up, so that was nice to know with all the weight.
