I look after one of these Ribcraft 545 s for a Sub-Aqua Club in Dublin.

Ribcraft weren't a lot of use when I contacted them last year.

Unfortunately it doesn't have a CE plate on the transom, any idea what load and how many people they're rated for?

And fuel tank size: when measured it seems to be a 120-130l, is this about right?

The fuel tank seems large given the other boat i look after, Tornado High Performance 6.5 with Merc Opti 150 hp has a 120l tank.

This is mine. I have a 150hp rated transom & a 180l inboard tank. These were both to my spec.
The load rating is standard.
