Mine was 6x 100 secs, @f/2.8, ISO 1600, sky Bortle 3, target close to Zenith.

Raymo, my concern is you weren't targeting the right area of the sky. If you were close to the Zenith at the time, then you were too high up. Rigel reaches it's highest point at about midnight around December the 21st when it's about 60° above the horizon, that's a fair bit short of 90°. Have another go, the good thing is, that witch ain't going anywhere!
