That works Too!

 

Much easier to taper wood spars than brass ones.

Eugene, how about a description of the Brigantine.

I replaced a lot of the plastic masts and spars fir brass tubing so that I could tie the lines tightly without fear of later distortion or torsion.

i rigged the smaller version but was damaged during moves. the bigger 1 never had masts installed so therefore not rigged.
