I have seen shipping weightinch of 23-29 lbs on other websites. But im looking for true weight of the poles, as most modern carbon fiber outrigger poles weight 4-6 lbs...and my heavier clunker aluminum ones weigh 9-10 lbs each. I wanna purchase the CE Smith 17foot Carbon Fiber ones today but not necessarily if they weight more than my aluminum ones. Thank You
