Does anyone even know?

The NOLA.com article about the 1953 repair work said it's hollow and is "believed" to weigh ~7,000 lbs.

Believe I saw somewhere 7-9 tons.

I would think 2000-4000 lbs plays a big part of th equation to just guess on.

Some posted 7-9 tons a few pages ago, but I think it actually weigh between 4 and 5 tons.

NolaNY posted a spec sheet for the crane. I think the max. boom length is 164'. Capacity is way up there, but I know it decrease with boom angle.

I see a hybrid between your thinking and reality. Attach the tow strap, someone holds the drivers beer, and a stiff tug with a crane.

If at least one yankee doesn't die during this process, I'm gonna be just a little bit disappointed.

Nah, that's not bad unless you start moving it while it's boomed out like that. And then that thing will wobble up and down on you.
