What I've actually got are copies of Lennarth Petersson's and James Lees' books on rigging!

Arthur- I have Lee's book but I guess I do better looking at a plan that pertains to my specific ship than try to extrapolate and apply the info from a reference work.... but I am continuing in my journey, maybe I should get his book out again and just do some reading.....

I Installed and rigged the gaff - the rigging is starting to close in on me, my ham fistedness is showing itself. I have had to redo a few things (again) after inadvertently bumping into stuff as I focus on something else. Time to slow down and approach with caution.... here are a few shots of the gaff, the throat and peak halyards and the gaff vangs.

What you need to do is buy Petersson's book - and then choose a ship to match the book!

Your skylight windows look good in your last picture.
