It turns out I did not do it correctly. According to the rigging instructions, there are small holes that you pass wire through and wrap around the shrouds. My holes were completely plugged. I don't understand why. I checked in with Dick Henry, a regular poster on this forum. He has special boots which hold it all together. I remember seeing ONE of those, and did not know what it was. I think I threw it out.
So, I used wire and then some weatherproof tape over the wire in case the sale rubs up against the spreaders.
So, at long last my boat is finally in the water. I hope to take her out for the maiden voyage tomorrow!
