i saw one on ebay not long ago, just type in 'hobie 16' and see what comes up. good luck, i broke mine recently too. fortunately my boat stays at a club with mast up. the mast can be "raised" into position easily with the boat on the ground, propped up on one side (i used a kayak paddle to prop mine up) and the mast 'horizontal'(the mast tip resting on the ground).
