Were it my boat - I would do the rigging first, and then work on the
daggerboard. I know that potentially increases the hassle factor because
you might have to drop the rig to finish the daggerboard work (well you can
always dry capsize the boat in the yard), but having the boat rigged will be
great motivation to get the daggerboard inserts done.
Then I recommend Sail Sandpoint for your first test sail - easier launch -
and at least until December, a bit warmer water.

Well... I'm a bit farther than that. But I am pretty close... I have to
drill a few holes on the mast, but once I get that done I'm going to call in
the reserves. ;-) (The other big task is I have to do is cut the holes in
the inserts and get the centerboard to fit. That may take a bit of time...)
Thanks though -- I'll definitely call you when I'm ready.

If you have all the hardware, give me a shout and I'd be happy to come over
and help you rig (splicing, mast setup etc.) just like we did up in Jericho.
With two hands on it we could easily get it done within the weekend.
