Offline, I think you have the wrong Lazy Ace, the one mentioned is the small one 76" span. You are talking about the large one which I also have. I have a Quadra 41 on it and it weighs 18 pounds, my 76 inch version with the Magnam 91 only weighs about 8 pounds, maybe 9, I have not checked the weight for sure. Either one flys great. Rod
