Lo Voltage Notes

Stats

• At midships the freeboard is approx 20".
• The original weighed just over 800 lbs with batteries, et. al. but no passengers.
• At a 5" waterline the displacement is 940 lbs.
• The Lo Voltage uses 6 batteries @ 64 lbs each.

QUES: What is the designed load capacity of this hull?

ANS: We design to a given weight and calculate the waterline; we do not go beyond this. The Lo Voltage will sink about 1" for each 210 lbs added.
