Weight would be a major limiting factor there. Fibreglass and aluminium-hulled small craft could very easily become top-heavy and quite unstable if too much armour (even sand bags) was added above the waterline.
Another problem could be the bilge pump outlets, they really need to stay above the water, so loading a small craft down with too much armour/weapons/ammo could result in it sinking very easily.
