[quote=P.M.]There are many ways to rig this boat, especially with the spin setup (including spin sheet), the mast rotation, active downhaul, and the jib rigging.
As for #4, keep the loop that you have. It works great and provides the means to rig other things rather than drilling the spin pole and adding unnecessary hardware. . . . and you can order stock forestay bridals. There will be no play with the 1.5" spin pole once it is rigged and pre bent.
No reason you can't find a used sunfish spar. The are everywhere, especially small local sailing clubs.
Here are some links in my album that will help you think through this and give you some ideas.

Disclaimer: This boat was/is well designed out of the box and extremely well balanced for an One Design factory boat. It has evolved with upgrades through the years that were nice . . . mid pole snuffer, self tacker, improve rudders (gen 2), improved rotator, etc. No need to try to redesign it. The focus should be on the details with the rigging, and you have a lot of options.[/quote]
