A Scope for Caravaning

Welp, for better or worse, just sold my 12" GOTO dob. He got a good deal, considering I threw in all my 2" EP's

So now, what do I buy. I am looking at a ALT/AZ EQ6, and an 8" Celestron SCT. Like the mount, simply because it can handle an 8" with ease, want to move to more serious photography in the future, and it seems a very stable mount, that can handle 20 kg, and best of both worlds, visual and astro later. Seems ideal for my GSTAR, especially with live view. Yes, it is a heavy mount, but I need something stable, that will not be a burden into/out of - a caravan.

Your thoughts please ?

Cheers,

Doc
