Is this correct?

[nicf14]

UIM weight limits for O-250, 190kg- 418lbs for driver, boat and motor.
120kg- 264lbs for boat and motor only. I guess you need A 154lbs driver?

From Where

Nic,

Where did you see this?

The UIM rule book. Google UIM

[stu_racing]

I'm not sure on the rule, but have been told by others there are minimum weights for just the boat, motor, and prop. I was told that this was to make it so the structural integrity of the boats were not comprimised. I've also been told this is why most of the European drivers are so small.

Weights

Yes, that is correct and those are minimum weights. The inspectors can weight you if they want to but according to my friends over seas, that sometimes they just weight someone if there is an issue in question.

The first weight is for the complete RACED rig without the driver. The second is with the RACED rig with the driver. Raced means when you come back to the pits and get out of the boat, so what ever fuel you have left in the boat is how it is weight checked.

Weights

To All,

What about 0125, 0175, 0350, etc.?

[nicf14]

O-350 is 286lbs & 462lbs. There is nothing for O-125, or O-175.
