Rigging Measurements

BW #81 needs some help! I need the pin to pin measurements and wire diameter of the stays and shrouds with the turnbuckles 2/3 open to get the rigging made for my BW. My mast is 25' 1/4" long. The heirs of the previous owner threw all the rigging away. I thought I could figure it out, but it is not that easy. If anyone has not raised their mast yet, I would be very grateful for some measurements. This is how Defender measures them:

Thanks for any help (not you Norm),
