I think it's a combination of parts used and type of ship. I think carriers
lend themselves to be light for their size because their biggest main
section is hollow, made mostly of castle walls, BURPS and baseplates. I bet
if I were to build a non-carrier the same size it would be twice as heavy
simply because all that empty interior space would be filled with rooms,
walls, indoor decor, etc. Makes you wonder how much Joel K's "Benevolent
Grace" weighs?

Hey, that's an idea! You know, the guys at the last meeting were considering
having a small meeting in honor of our "distinguished guests." I'll get back
to you on that, dude.
