Thanks everyone for all the great advice. After discussing it with my wife, we had to reduce the budget because we decided to start building our house earlier than initially planned. in the end we got a 6" dob. To carry it around I'm removing the OTA and moving it as 2 pieces but will build or get some trolley for it.
The sky finally cleared enough tonight to see the moon and some planets. We have both been bitten by the bug. I can see this becoming more addictive.
