Hello Mark,
I have one, and I can tell you that it will easily carry the weight you outline, though windage is another issue (tube length).
The Mach1 GTO is in a whole other league to the G11 (in my opinion) - with it's tracking and pointing accuracy equal to my Paramount ME.
I'm currently using it as a portable unit on a Losmandy LW (G8) tripod. It actually works well with my 130mm refractor, but I suspect you would want to go bigger for the 10" tube.
You will not be disappointed with an AP mount. Roland pulled out all stops on the design for the Mach1. It is a superb mount.
Paul
