General National 12 chat / First 12

I´m very happy to be the new owner of 3257 Simply Red. She was in France for years now and she needs to be re-rigg. But i have  never seen another 12 before. I need a lot of informations about this boats.
The mast is not a TRUE 12 one, so i.m not sure about the lenght, spreaders position, boom position... My mast is 668 from under the step mast to the top of the main halyard. Boom is 121 cm from the step mast, spreaders 354. Is itgood or really bad ?
shrouds don't have any controls just verniers And the rake of the mast seems to a lot behind. I know this boats are all differents but if someone can tell me about a neutral position i can measure from the top of the mast/transform with the halyard, it'll be very kind.
for the shrouds control i woud like to have one control for both to the centreboard.
i know there is a lot of questions but i can assure it is just the begining.
(Please, excuse me for my french)
regards.
