    Lightest hammock with attached bug net

    I was wondering who makes the lightest comfortable hammock with attached bug net. I was thinking maybe a 10ft hammock. I'm 5'8" 165lb.

    Our (Hammeck) Netty comes in at about 21 ounces for the 10ft, SL 70D option.

    CORRECTED.

    I don't have the netty, but I can vouch for how comfy hammeck's 10 footer is.
    All those hours exploring the great outdoors made me more resilient and confident

    Need to know how tall you are and much you weight.... All the above are good hammocks but your size (height/weight) can limit your choices.
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    That's truly impressive, but I would suggest double checking that weight.

    Looking at your site I think you may have some weights mixed up. +1 on papasmurfs suggestion to double check your weights.
