Default mast for starcraft STARLETTE?

I need a mast for a starcraft STARLETTE, The bost is 9'3".

I found some sail specs online:

Luff 10.83
Foot 7.33
Leech-AftHdBd 12.70*
Tack Ang 87.96*
Diag (clew/head) 12.86*
Head (inches) 3.50*
Area (no Roach) 39.62

Where might I get a mast or materials to build one.

Also, based on these dimensions, what height should the mast be?

TIA

BBrinster,

I actually saw a Starlette dink once, but that is about what I remember.

I hope you didn't buy (as in give money) for this boat. By the time you
purchase spars and sails you will be into it by more than a couple
hundred dollars(us).

Unfortunately, I do not remember how the mast steps (what holds it in
place on the boat or even if it is stayed (wires hold the mast).

There are several places on the web that provide spar extrusions that
might serve, but getting a set of new spars assembled and shipped will
not be cheap. If you buy a length of extrusion and all the fittings and
cut and fit it yourself, you are still going to spend more money than
you expect.

And . . .

You haven't even bought a sail yet.

Get quotes and prices and then decide you will row if you keep it at all.
