Great, Mac,

One thing about brass is that it is not nearly as durable or strong as stainless or even bronze. It's really quite soft and corrodes and weakens easily, particularly in salt air.

I know you're in fresh water, but you may want to think about bronze for the rigging if you want a more nautical look with reasonable strength and durability.

Happy Building!
