there are some showing the riveted main beam straps, plus there are lots of 5.2 pics attached to various postings that will turn up during searches
my tramp looks to be the original one, same with sails and rigging, gulp!
i like the beam, it gives me something to tie my righting bag too, somewhere to push against if a gust brings the hull up too quick and it probably helps support the 16 year old tramp

the excess of the main halyard i stow down the tramp tube sleeve. the jib halyard excess goes into a mesh bag i recently sewed onto the tramp
