Don't change your plans. As I told you in the PM the model you are making is historically just. It was in the archives that historians found the remark that Anna Maria was build as a hagboat and because of the explosion that destroyed all the upper works aft people assumed that this was a fluit. The pictures you found are good ones, but please continue building as you do, because the shape is nice.
As for the taffrail: how about this one:

Anna Maria 1694 ( firdajan 2 ) 1:96-scan.jpg
This was found in Denmark, the ship's name must have been 'Abraham's sacrifice' and the ship dated from 1639.

Another thing I wanted to show you is the lines plan of a hagboat I reconstructed from a list of data on the shape of a hagboat built for the Eastindia Company VOC. I will tell more about this source in a new thread I will start soon on a 160 foot VOC ship.
For some reason the `Manage Attachments` link won't allow me to upload more than one picture, so I will be back with a new post hereafter to show that picture as well.
