ased on the information I found in the Digital Museum I have made oars, mast and pole for the sail (I’m unsure of the English term).

The spar is ( perhaps not surprisingly) a sprit.  Probably a Dutch word I think, and pronounced “spreet” on Thames Barges.

 
Gloriously the rope holding the bottom end of the sprit is the snotter.

 

Beautiful work on the boat, Bolin.  Extremely clean woodwork and a good result.
