18th Century Bowsprit rigging arrangement

[clogger]

I’m Scratchbuilding a 1/36 scale Le Rochefort and am at the rigging stage. I’m not entirely clear as to how the bowsprit shrouds are attached to the end of the bowsprit.
Are the 2 shrouds looped together over the end of the bowsprit? Hopefully the attached photo will explain.
Also is the bowsprit bobstay SERVED along all the way to end of the bowsprit?

I do not have the manual of the monograph with me, but I have the translated text of this part which may help



Would be great if you show us once your model with some photos .....

Our member @Jempi is also working on a model of the Rochefort and should be close to your status of progress

Thanks Uwek. I have the manual and it doesnt say how the bowsprit shrouds are actually tied to the tip of the bowsprit. But I think it must be a loop?
I’m at the rigging stage now. I’ve attached a recent photo I’ve taken.
