The "D" rings in the deck were through bolted, all the way down through aluminum angle prob 36" long. The entire bulkhead ripped out of the boat and through the deck. This was fiberglass, rot, maintenance issue.....

That was not poor rigging, that was structural failure of lifting hook mount.
The rigging was at a very minimal angle more than sufficient to safely lift up without putting a lateral load on the lifting points or needing a spreader bar.
You can hear the bulkhead and deck popping right before it lets go.
There is even a section of the boat that pulls out with the rigging.
I know a little something about rigging.
