    They seem to be fairly similar to the odd semiscale Hydro2 we get, so I would guess similar weight which is about 2kg/4.5lb.

      Tommy, for oval racing over several seasons I prefer a more robust hull so mine weight 5 to 6 pounds.

          Heavy enough to stay on the water and lite enough to go fast. Seriously, I am discovering that based on water conditions you can add lbs of weight and do better(choppy) or less weight to go fast in smoother water.

            So 5lbs 4oz isn't bad for a wood boat?
