Default RE: how to make masts and sails etc

martno1fan,
I looked at the following resources...lots of info - took a bit from each. After looking at those (and more) Ill bet that you could come up with a decent rig using parts that are readily available to you (kite shops, fabric shops, fishing suppliers, etc) ...
http://www.myrc.org/ look under their library - lots of build and some sail making stuff there.
http://www.amya.org/us1mcons.html - same - a bunch of info and ideas
http://www.legacyfamilytree.ca/sail/step-by-step.html - a bunch of Victoria rig building stuff here
http://www.ec12.info/building_the_ec12.htm - great rig construction ideas with photos.
http://home.mindspring.com/~pmyc100/Sailmaking.htm - more sailmaking info

There is some more sailmaking info out there but I cant locate it now.

Lots of researching for you but I found it all helpfull,
