What would be good for just viewing

Hi to all

At present i have and ED80 on a EQ5, plus a imaging platform, and Canon 5D with lenses that serves me well for the imaging part of the hobby.

I have a spare pier with nothing on it at the moment that is looking for a friend, so that i can just do some observing.

I am looking for a scope that i can place on the pier which would just be used for observing, no need for tracking, guiding, motor drives etc.

I would not be looking for a newtonion, as i just sold the one i had on it.
Yea, i know that sounds strange, but i was thinking maybe of a 8 or 10 inch SCT, or somthing similar.

Anyway would anybody have some other suggestions that they may think would be more suitable.

Thanks Leon.
