I already have 1.1 that I need to use up. maybe it's back to a double layer ghost. what do you guys think. I am looking to lightweight, otherwise, I will use my hennessey expedition.

Ok. I may be a little biased but a stretch side can be made pretty light by using 1.1oz fabric, keeping it short and only putting the stretch on one side of the foot end.
Personally I think 1.1 is too light for your weight and making it a double layer will unfortunately double the weight.

I did a knotty mod on the Acu and weigh 200 these days. It's the bees knees.
Here's another option, other than the ghost, for a weight saving hammock.

I just made one, but only slept in it one night, so I haven't dialed it in yet. It is, however, surprisingly comfortable considering that the ridge line is over two feet shorter than my other hammock. The whole thing including hammock (made of single layer 1.5 oz nylon), dynaglide whoopies, tree straps, ASR, HUG bug net, in a silnylon bishop bag is about 14 oz.
