Re: M mast cost??
Thanks for all the posts guys.My mast has a bend to the side,it starts about half way up and the bend is about eight - twelve inches from being straight.I have not taken it off yet so am guessing how much bend is in it.

I suppose I could put the boat back in the water next spring, then take a trip to a dealer with just the Mac trailer, then strap the mast to the trailer and bring it home.It would stick out the back of the trailer a fair bit though.

Do the Hobie trick
Raise the mast in the front until it clears the tow vehicle and goes over it - and your rear overhang is gone.

I hauled my mast on my trailer. It hung off the end, but I put a red flag on it and drove 150 miles with it without a problem. Good luck!
