[Rhodes22-list] R22 Labor Day weekend sailing photos from Lake Manawa

[Jesse Shumaker]

OR is a reference to how many people can be safely carried onboard and it
stands for Operators Responsibility.   Apparently many powerboats have a
stated vessel capacity, but vessels that don't have a stated capacity can
post OR.

I attached a snippet from the Iowa Boating Guide for reference.  I wonder
if other states have a similar requirement?
