Big bed in 16 foot Scamp

Is it possible to get a 16 foot layout 4 Scamp with a big bed and not have the heavy wood of the deluxe?

I dont think so, but there was some recent discussion on a Scamp Facebook group that made me unsure. After all , things change.

A quick call to Scamp will give you the answer.

No, but the wood ain't heavy, you would love the wood interior. The real weight difference is negligible. Order the deluxe, comparably equipped minus a couple of options.
Another point... Generally speaking, weight affects acceleration, while aerodynamics affects cruising.
Learn to accelerate at a rate commensurate with your load.
Find the cruising speed with the best drag compromise.
If the only difference is a couple hundred pounds of weight with the same drag you will lose nothing except a few seconds from zero to sixty.
