Spinnaker set-up for a '76 Venture 25

Dear Folks:

I acquired a '76 Venture 25 about 20 years ago. Before kids, I used it very extensively and could never find the heart to get rid of it.

Now that my son is 12, he has taken an interest so we've pulled it out of the weeds and are getting it ready to go again.

That said, I'm interested in a few rigging upgrades and was hopeful some might have some insight:
1. Boom topping lift - before I have something fabricated, is there something commercially available?
2. Vang Kit - There's loads of pulley sets out there, what about the bits to attach to the boom and mast?
3. Halyards to the cockpit rather than on the mast base
4. Spinnaker kit

Thanks in advance,
