Being a standing lug rig, the sail shape sets the gaff angle, and the halyard is secured to the weather gunwale to replace a shroud that isn't otherwise there.

Yes, all very well, but you don't tell us why was the decision made to make these details in your "Swallow" different to the original. And if we stick to the hypothesis that "Cochy" is the model for "Scarab" which is as close as possible to "Amazon" then the shape of her sail is even more different than the original.
