Avon 4.2 Specifications

Hi All,
I have an Avon 4.2 m (LOA) see picture, possibly, I’m not good with tech, does anyone know what the max rated capacity for persons would be, the plate is missing. I have a 40hp outboard on it which I’m sure is well within it’s capacity.
Thanks.

As predicted it comes up with ‘invalid file’ if I try to upload a picture.

Is it fully inflatable or is it an actual rib? I thought the adventure came in a 4m (max 50hp) and a 4.5 (max 70hp) but not 4.2. If I recall correctly, the supersport rib was just an adventure with fancy seating more like a yacht tender. The avon sports boat was a SIB that came in a variety of sizes.

Probably the easiest place for you to look is the plate on the transom as that will have all the info, assuming it hasn't fallen off

It’s a rib. It had a central fore and aft seat/ console but no longer has. It’s 4.2 m , inflated, from the bow to the back of the sponson. The plate is no longer there.
