Sorry I can't help you with specifics because I don't have any drawings, photos or other information about this boat.
Typically this type of sail (the "gaff sail") has three lashing sides.
The side hoisted on the mast is tied with wooden hoops, like the ones RossM did with his Bluenoose (I suggest you look at his model because he did a great job). On this side some boats use a rope that goes through eyelets instead of wooden hoops. I preferred to use hoops on my schooner for several reasons.
The side of the sail that is fixed on the gaff is usually tied with a rope that goes through the eyelets of the sail itself. There are several ways to do this type of lashing, I followed one that was consistent with that period and type of ship. If you want I can send you two or three drawings with as many lashing options.
The side of the sail hoisted on the boom can have two different ways of lashing. It can have a binding along the entire boom with a rope that passes through the eyelets (present on the edge) or only two binding points. One point is located on the corner of the sail called โTackโ and the other on the opposite side, that is, on the corner of the sail called โClewโ. I chose the latter solution.
The advantage of having rings (on a real ship) is that of being able to easily lower the gaff on the boom without removing the sails.
The advantage of having only two attachment points on the boom makes it easier (on real ships) to mess with the gaff sails (that is, collecting the sail on the mast with special running maneuvers), in fact on the Clew the binding is not fixed to the boom but is regulated by a rope and a block (pulley) that can be released.
I hope to have time to collect some drawings this evening to better illustrate what I have written.
