Re: Stus-List C 30 Mast weight

[Dennis C. via CnC-List]

300 lbs sounds close.

My rigger buddy and I pulled a mast off a deck stepped Hans Christian 38
few months ago.  Crane had a scale.  466 lbs without furlers but with steps
all the way up.

Yeah Bruce, obviously the mast of a 37+ is considerably heavier.  I was
really just helping give and basis for an absolute maximum possible weigh.
More of a, "It has to weight LESS than"

A quick Amazon search proves difficult to find a chain fall less than 3/4
ton (1500 lbs).  It is my belief that a hoist of this capacity would be
plenty big enough to accomplish the task of lifting ANY of our masts

Re: Stus-List C 30 Mast weight

[Nate Flesness via CnC-List]

Never weighted my 1980 30-1 mast but I used to pull it annually with a gin
pole and a helper - I would agree with the guesstimates based on swing
momentum and two guys adjusting it on the fore and aft pulpits, etc,
200-300 lbs sounds right on.

Re: Stus-List C 30 Mast weight

[bwhitmore via CnC-List]

Is everyone considering the model of the boat here, as we're getting a wide 
swing in answers.  My C 27. MK III  had a deck stepped mast without a roller 
furler, and I could move it and get it on a rack with no assistance.  A keel 
stepped mast like on my 37/40+ would be an entirely different animal,  and it 
depends on the roller furler as well.

Re: Stus-List C 30 Mast weight

[Michael Brown via CnC-List]

The standing rigging weighs under 100 lbs, would guess the mast is 200 lbs. I 
normally
disconnect the forestay, coil it and store it on board for the winter to 
protect the Harken
Carbo Foil. I can pick up and carry the mast myself, no problem placing it on a 
rack up
to shoulder height.

To switch from saw horses to a mast dolly I place the dolly beside the mast in 
the middle,
left one end of the mast and pivot the mast on the far sawhorse. If I  end up 
on a higher
spot on the mast racks I pick up one end and put it on the rack, then go to the 
other end
and lift the mast up.

Based on that I have to think it is under 250 pounds.

Hi Gerald, 
 
I don?t have an exact weight for the mast on my 30 MK I, but I would 
guesstimate it?s in the range of 200-250 pounds.  Two guys can lift it but it?s 
a struggle, and they can?t hold it for long or move it very much.  Four or five 
guys can carry it more easily.

[Josh Muckley via CnC-List]

The mast on my 37+ is about 60' long and with a person on each end, 2 men
can barely lift it.  I would guess that it is somewhere around 300 lbs.  If
you bought a chain hoist with a working load limit of 400 or 500 I would
think you would be good to go.

Re: Stus-List C 30 Mast weight

[T power via CnC-List]

I have a 1 1/2 ton chin hoist that easily lifts my C 30 mast. I had two other 
people help me move the mast so I would approximate the mast to be maybe 300 
lbs.
