I've no experience with the EM-11, but when I was in a similar situation several years ago with a much lighter load, I was steered towards the EM200.

Equatorial mount for 20 pound refractor

Posted By Enrico Africa

How long is your refractor? I have a Celestron CG5 ASGT and it carries my AP130EDFGT fine for visual and even planetary imaging. A good used CG5 GT or the newer AVX should work for you if your refractor has similar specs to the AP130.

Looks like a winner, Floyd! What happens to your 8300?

Very nice, Maciej! The long diagonal emission confirms my own faint sighting of this object in an unfinished version of this image I shot a while back. Thanks for the confirming image!
