Actually Ralph, the current CG regs use 140 pounds as the average passenger
size. Even worse!

A contributing factor to the Lake George capsize, is that Coast Guard regs.
consider the average weight of an American adult to be 150 lbs., which was
accurate many years ago, but not today. These regs must be revised to
reflect the larger sizes of today.
