Hallo @JKS
we wish you all the BEST and a HAPPY BIRTHDAY
Birthday-Cake
Hope that someone can help with the rigging
Take also a look at the group build of the Bluenose - here you can find a lot of information related of typical rigging of such schooners
f.e. @Peter Voogt set sail and studied the rigging in detail
 
Hi 'JKS'. From my also a Happy Birthday.
For the rigging of my YuanQing Bluenose I used the plans / drawings of Model Shipways:
--> https://modelexpo-online.com/Model-Shipways-BLUENOSE-Plans-6-sheets_p_944.html <--

In my own build-log, I started here with the first part of the rigging:
--> BN Rigging, page 120 / #2388 <--
But for the shrouds I used a rather unconventional way of rigging them.

In the link Uwe has posted in the post above, you can found several build, some of the are already completed, see at the end of the log-text [Completed Build]:
--> Bluenose Group Build Log's <--
In the next link you can find in post #1 an excel-list of builded BN's with also several other manufacturers. In column 'G' in yellow the ones that are completed:
--> BN-List <--

This builder has posted a lot of parts of de drawings in his build-log. Here starts his rigging:

Regards, Peter
