Walter,
A few more thoughts on re-rigging. BTW I haven't seen a copy of my previous post or anyone else's. Anyway …
If you turn the job over to a yard they will want the work to fit into their M-F, 8 hours/day work week. An independent rigger will want to get the job done in the minimum of days so he/she can get on to the next job (I assume both the yard and the rigger are working on a fixed price basis). The yard may want the mast and rigging in their shop for several weeks, while they order the wire and terminals and then make up the rigging. The rigger may come to the boat one day to roughly measure the wire required then go away for a week or two until all the parts arrive before returning to do the job in one day. In the meantime you can still use the boat in something other than power boat mode.
That said, I did find that without all the rigging in the way these boats make really nice power boats.
