Weight of Albin Vega mast?

[Vega1447]

Hi all - still working on idea of A frame for mast lift.

I'm inclined to go with 2x4 ( 2in by 4 in cross-section) wooden spars as
cheap and reasonably light.

Does anyone have an approx weight for the mast - I'm guessing about 50
kg or approx 100lb?

In other words if the A frame can lift my weight without buckling I
should be OK?

Thanks for any comments.

I can walk around with the fully rigged mast on my shoulder, but just barely. I'd guess 150 pounds.

I would second the guess for the mast weight being between 100 and 150 pounds, as I can just barely lift it with one hand to put it on my shoulder....
