Greetings to all interested,

There is a book I have on order called The History of the Ship by Richard
Woodman that should cover this area.  It covers everything from the ancient
ships to the development of rigging through history.  This book runs around
$60.
More than happy to let you see it once it gets here or xerox the desired
data for you.
