A quick question: The first shroud (toward the bow) of the main masts is generally served rope all the length. What about the first shroud of the mizzen and Bonaventure masts (the smaller back two masts)? Should I serve the first rope to length too?

Sorry for the beginner questions.... this is my first rigging.

If you have a ship with a bonaventure mast, no stays or shrouds are served. In that era this was not done. Served ropes where only seen on ships in the beginning of the 17th century.
