Reminds me of the aluminum models we hauled for years always wondering if
there wasn't something a bit lighter than 80 pounds. Thankfully, we were
young, strong, and full of energy.
If you're going to be doing a lot of portaging find something lighter. You
will never be sorry.
If portaging is not a problem, think about who gets it on/off your vehicle.
If you do it alone you better be able to handle the weight with little
effort.
Have fun.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
