Mine says Model: Seafari 20'

It says nothing about maximum persons.
My hull # is 221 after yours.

It occurred to me that maybe one option you might consider would be to leave some of the decals on the sheet blank, so that guys could stamp their own numbers on the aluminum sheet?! Then the guys with non-stock configurations could make their own custom stickers. Denny

I didn't think of that. I'll post the info when I'm done so others can have their own made. I just looked up the calculation tables the USCG uses, and figured it out myself. The only thing I couldn't do was actually float and measure the displacement of the hull in a pool, so I used the specs on this website for max weight capacity, divided by 150, rounding down to the highest whole number to get max persons.
Your hull, at 19'8", with 2 1/2 feet added to it, PLUS the anchor roller and propulsion machinery could easily actually be over 24', and then you round up to next higher whole number for LOA in feet. But you are a minimum LOA for HP purposes of 23'
withoutpropulsion machinery, giving you a Max HP of
at least280.
