    DIY 11 ft. 1.1 oz - really light hammock w/whoopie slings

    I'm selling a DIY 11 ft, 1.1 oz ripstop hammock I bought on this forum. It is well made (straight stitching) with no rips, repairs, issues. The edge trim is double stitched and the gathers end in a ball with the suspension larks headed behind the ball. I'll put a whoopie sling on the ends.

    Shipped to CONUSA: $50

    IMPORTANT NOTE: This ripstop is very light - Even though some sites say their 1.1 oz ripstop will hold 200 lbs., I wouldn't want to put anyone in the hammock who weighed over 175 lbs (150lbs max preferred). It's a feature, not a bug.

    If you are on the tall side and under 175lbs, here's an opportunity to get a light weight hammock that still gives you room to move around. I'll include a stuff sack but it won't be a new silnylon model. I'll find something from my tub-of-sacks that have accumulated over my hiking years.

    In the photo, the supports on the porch are 13 ft apart.

    What is the width and how much does the hammock weight without the rigging?

    Just the hammock is about 8.25 oz. It is approximately 11.5 ft long and 70 inches wide.
