How about a man and 2 boys in one of these as a lake sailer?  Total weight a shade under 400#

How about four adults, two dogs, and a large cooler as this builder reports. ;)

There used to be an article with pictures of a Nutmeg or Featherwind carrying four adults but I'm having trouble finding it.

Aha! Found it.  See the bottom most picture on David Beede's site. Skipper is the fourth adult behind the camera.

To all,

The original sailed fine with four adults sitting on the bottom on boat cushions.
