11,000 lbs (5000 Kg) seems to be truly lightweight for the PDQ 34. 6-7000 Kg would be a more common weight for this length I should think. Also I noticed on the Bruce Roberts site http://www.bruceroberts.com/ public/HTML/descriptions/cat35_description.htm that their new 35' powercat weighs a hefty 9000kg although powered with a moderate 125-150 HP. That's a huge difference. Gary
