Does anyone know the difference in mast heights between the C250wk standard rig and tall rig?
What got me wondering is the current C250 models are listed as being 33'3" from waterline to masthead. The owners manual for my 1997 model, provided by PO, says 36'3" from waterline to masthead.

I do know the last model year the tall rig was offered was 1999. Never heard what the length of the tall rig mast was. From 2000 to present the only mast available is 28' long.

I find it interesting according to Bubba’s post that the tall rig is 3' taller than the standard rig. The c25 tall rig is 30' and the standard is 28' only a 2' difference.

My owners manual doesn't mention anything about tall or standard rig as far as I can see.
I only had a 6' tape with me when I measured the mast, so I could be off an inch or two, but it came out just over 31'. Does this sound like a tall rig?

Dave, the online manual says that the standard rig has a 28 foot mast. I believe you must have a tall rig.
