it looks big, but only comes in at about 60lbs, so its not too bad. we did the trip again in reverse with the old, shorter rig. 32 feet.
i did the same thing with a sol cat mast that i picked up over 400 km away.
we built our second boat in our back yard. a blown up paper tiger at 22 feet. one hull at a time on the roof of the car to the club.
no problem.
