You've misunderstood the strength debate with relation to euro guns. If you reread my posts and what Pastor said, it's all about bouyancy. The point is that a euro gun made strong enough from carbon fibre can be neutrally bouyant with a spear in it, whereas an aluminium gun just can't. A woodie requires more mass and a wider cross section to be neutral. That's fine when you need seven rubbers, but most of us don't. Besides, a 140 euro with 2 x 18 has some serious grunt, equal to maybe a four or five 14mm band 55-60" midhandle.
