I'll bet he didn't either. Aronow made boats to last. Old Cigs and Magnums are heavy.

Maybe m.m. and Lucy's 41 Apache might be the one of the lightest.

The 80's KV Scarabs were very light layups. The deck bows when you walk on it!

Yes, very light. If you lit a match under the deck in the daytime, you could see it from the outside.
