Not as much as a Tiger's mast. :wink:
Be more specific. You talking stripped bare, or with the standing rigging?

No - other than the addition of the Comptip in 1984, there have been no significant changes to the Hobie 16's mast.

Why do you ask?

Feels much heavier than that when I'm trying to stand it up by myself.

Depending on how you are standing it up, it will seem heavier then that. If you have the step pin in and are picking it up while on the tramp as far back as you can get, you are really picking quite a bit more weight because of the lever effect.
