9A lets review the weight stats on r44s
MGross for raven I 2400lb
standard fuel 184lb
useful load withstandard fuel 774 lb

So 774lb /4= 193.5lb
or 87kg. not unreasonable
or raven II 816lb remaining with standard fuel. If you add aircon take off 20 lb note aircon is only available for ravenII and clipperII.
Now a clipper I with floats leaves 709lb or 177lb (80kg per person standard fuel). still not totally unreasonable.
