Why is it important to know the capacity of a lifeboat?

The reason to know that capacity of a lifeboat is that if you should happen to be in a sinking ship and the lifeboats are being boarded, you will be able to tell when a particular lifeboat is full, and if it is, rather than trying to board it, you will look for a different lifeboat. If lifeboats are overloaded, then they too will be unsafe and may also sink, which defeats the purpose.
