Default Info on Puritan 1885 Americas Cup Yacht

Looking for rigging, sail plan details for this era racing yacht. Have found only lines drawing of hull, and Googling only finds art work. This yacht seems to represent a transition design in many different ways.
Thanks,
Bridgman bob

Hi Bob,
If you are still looking for these plans, I have an old Blue Jacket kit of the Puritan. It has the sail and rigging plans included.

Bill:
Yes, still looking for any and all information on the Puritan Americas Cup Defender. What do you have available?
It seems this era and type of sailing vessels is a black hole as far as information of any detail is concerned. Thanks!
Bob

Hi Bob,
I have a Bluejacket Kit of the Puritan which I am currently fooling around with on the side. It has a large plan of the sails and rigging. If you can send me a private message with your E-Mail address. IŽll copy a part on the scanner and you can tell me if it is what you need.
