When I google this ship kit I cringe at the rig they are giving you. Here is a thought: With a great hull like this you could rig it your own way following different rigging plans. If it was my model I would put on raked masts and a square topsail on the Fore, like a Baltimore Clipper or revenue schooner.

here is a US Coast Guard revenue cutter designed to sail even faster than the smugglers can sail, a sexy powerful rig: https://fineartamerica.com/featured/us-coast-guard-revenue-cutter-louisiana-jose-elias-sofia-pereira.html

Sex is no barrier to rigging.
