4.2.4 Load distribution
The load distribution is a key factor for a good trim. As a general rule, avoid
excessive loads astern and at the bow, especially if the outboard engine is
heavy and powerful. Indeed, the best load distribution should be evaluated
based on the engine/boat combination. The experience will help you to
become familiar with this procedure.

DANGER
Passengers should not seat on bow tubes. In case of fall, they could be run
over by the boat or by the engine propeller.
