Dear Cfish, .......A boat will float because it weighs less than the water that it displaces. If the boat weighs forty tuns, but displaces thirty nine and nine tenths tuns, it will sink. We had a tugboat captain who got into trouble near where I live (Seattle). He started with a barge full of sand in salt water and headed up one of the rivers in this aria. Salt water weighs more than fresh water. But the barge with load weighs the same. Part way up the river the barge became heavier as the river water poured over the sides. The sand had to be reloaded into another barge before they could re-float the first. .....Water weighs 62.4 pounds per cubic foot. That is about 8 pounds per gallon. A twenty-five gallon container should hold up my two-hundred pound body, but with none to spare. That is why boats have "freeboard". That is some "extra" to take care of a little weight shifting or some waves or extra weight added (catch a big fish, maybe). For a small boat, a foot of "freeboard " is usually plenty. How many people will a small boat hold? Multiply length of boat by width and divide by fifteen should be close. A boat three feet wide by ten feet long should hold two people, if they are not to big.
