Spin - 16.5m will give you plenty. recommend 8plait pre stretched
Main - 13m is generous. 4mm or ideally 5mm for a 1 to 1 halyard. add 6-7m for a 2 to 1 halyard
jib. wire part depends on mast etc and whether you have a 2to1 purchase on the halyard. Overall about 14m for a 2 to 1 halyard...

jib sheets - 8m. some like them longer (9m) but they shouldn't be much shorter.
main - 7m.
spin - 13m

These are all for later wide boats with square hoops
