Now Eric, for someone as concerned as you are re unnecessary weight up front, why carry all that extra for various bottoms when with a SARCA (or maybe even a Rocna), you could dispense with all those, except perhaps for your trusty Danforth as a spare or for the stern, and you would save so much weight you could add more chain even. Give that contact Rex gave you a call. I reckon they must have some in stock up there by now.
