Ship a (cheap) Hobie 16 mast from California to Bradenton? No offence intended but this is sort of Coo-coo! Sadly, there are a Gawdawful lot of disused Hobie 16 masts within 50 miles of you. But the backyard bird-roost cats have been forgotten by the grownup children, and are NOT ADVERTISED! Happily there are a few actual sailboat dealers left, so at the very least- start there.
PS: This is a great thread.
