Etymology
1. c.1489, originally nautical, "to fit with sails," probably from a Scand. source (cf. Dan., Norw. rigge "to equip," Swed. rigga "to rig"), though these may be from Eng. Slang meaning "to pre-arrange or tamper with results" is attested from 1938. The noun meaning "distinctive arrangement of sails, masts, etc. on a ship" is first recorded 1822; extended to horse vehicles (1831), which led to sense of "truck, bus, etc." (1851).
2. From Early Modern English rygge, probably of North Germanic origin. Compare Norwegian rigge (“to bind up; wrap around; rig; equip”), Swedish dialectal rigga (“to rig a horse”), Faroese rigga (“to rig; to equip and fit; to make s.th. function”). Possibly from Proto-Germanic *rik- (“to bind”), from Proto-Indo-European *rign-, *reyg- (“to bind”); or related to Old English *wrīhan, wrīohan, wrēohan, wrēon (“to bind; wrap up; cover”). See also wry (“to cover; clothe; dress; hide”).

Now, we were gliding down a smooth, broad stream, at the rate of eleven miles an hour: our colours flying gaily; our crew rigged out in their smartest clothes; our officers in uniform again; the sun shining as on a brilliant April day in England; the land stretched out on either side, streaked with light patches of snow; [...]
