Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Chuck Saur via CnC-List]

Here's another post to get some experience-based advising.  I am looking to
purchase a rigid boom vang to replace the topping lift (damn thang) which
is always in the way of everything.   I will also replace the blocks/line I
have as manual vang. Tangs are built-in on the boom and mast base. I don't
want hydraulics, but wonder who can recommend which vang/size and other
considerations (vendor, etc) based on your purchase/use of them.

There is Forespar, Garhauer, Boomkicker, etc.  Some are less expensive but
appear the same.  Thoughts?

Garhauer. Extremely high quality and amazing support after the sale.

I would second the Garhauer experience. They can recommend size and build
flange fit to your mast and great to work with. Try catching them at a boat
show or during a show for best price.

Re: Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Neil Gallagher via CnC-List]

If all you want to do is get rid of the topping lift, you might consider 
just adding a Boomkicker, which only keeps the boom from falling down.  
Then you could keep your manual vang, would cost quite a bit less.  I'm 
happy with that arrangement, though I always put my main halyard on the 
end of the boom once the main is down in case someone decides to swing 
on the boom or something like that.

Re: Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Doug Allardyce via CnC-List]

Chuck,
I installed a Garhauer RV20-1SL several years ago now. I have an Offshore rig 
so the mast and boom already had the needed brackets for mounting. You will 
want to ask for the strong springs (yellow) when you order it. There are three. 
Great van for main trimming. I lead it back to the cockpit. You will find even 
with the strong springs the boom will be some what springy, so you will 
probably want to keep your topping lift, or put the main halyard on the boom 
when you put the boat away for the day. It will support the boom when I drop 
the main, but again a little spongy. I have a topping lift lead back to the 
cockpit, and leave it a little slack when sailing, and tighten it up after the 
main is down. I hopes this helps.

[Dennis C. via CnC-List]

Gee, Chuck

I guess there are a few folks on the list that like Garhauer vangs.  :).  I
put one on Touche' in 1999.  Still looks good and works great.  Highly
recommend one.

I've installed a few Garhauer vangs on other boats and have always had good
experiences with their support.

I installed a Boomkicker on a J30 several months ago and have a positive
opinion of that product also.

If it helps your decision, I have sold several rope vangs on eBay. Price
ranges from about $45 to $90  depending on size and condition.

Re: Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Patrick Davin via CnC-List]

Good timing on this topic, I just finished installing my new Garhauer
RV-20-1SL vang. Thinking about writing a blog post on it (svviolethour.com)
since I've been so happy with it so far (though haven't yet used it
sailing! Just installed 3 days ago).

It's the best deal in boating I've found so far - less than $500 is a
really reasonable price compared to other boating items with comparable
quantities of stainless steel, turning blocks, line and custom SS mast +
boom fittings.

Took about an hour to make the mast/boom templates and 7 hours to install
(cut all these times in 1/2 or 1/4 if you're not a perfectionist like me,
and not learning all these skills from scratch). 1 hour of that was to
remove the existing boom vang U-bolt fitting which was in the boom (hard to
work it down to the end of the boom), and ~2 hours was for fixing the part
I messed up - my center punch hadn't arrived from Amazon yet so the drill
chattered a bit and a couple holes ended up 1/16" - 1/8" off - enough to
not allow tapped machine screws in. Had to dremel out the fitting holes a
little larger with the tungsten carbide cutter.

Re: Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Marek Dziedzic via CnC-List]

I have a Boomkicker, but if I were to do it again, I would install Garhauer 
rigid vang. The cost is not that much different, but it seems to me that the 
Garhauer vang is a bit more solid.

Btw. The Boomkicker is pretty strong. I would not seat on the boom, but you can 
lean on it without a problem.

Regardless of what you choose, you will need a vang. And I would strongly 
suggest to run the line to the cockpit – you will use it.

At Garhauer talk to Guido; he will help you figure out the details.

I find that with them, it is easier to talk on the phone than trying to have 
the discussion via email. At least, make the initial contact by phone.

purchase a rigid boom vang to replace the topping lift (damn thang) which is 
always in the way of everything.   I will also replace the blocks/line I have 
as manual vang. Tangs are built-in on the boom and mast base. I don't want 
hydraulics, but wonder who can recommend which vang/size and other 
considerations (vendor, etc) based on your purchase/use of them.

There is Forespar, Garhauer, Boomkicker, etc.  Some are less expensive but 
appear the same.  Thoughts?

I wonder if anyone at Garhauer monitors this list. It almost sounds that we are 
all their best marketing people (-;).

I would second the Garhauer experience. They can recommend size and build 
flange fit to your mast and great to work with. Try catching them at a boat 
show or during a show for best price.

Re: Stus-List Boom vanging...

[Peter Fell via CnC-List]

I have a used Garhauer rigid vang that I figure is too big (or borderline) for 
my C 27-3. It’s an older RV20-1 that’s for 28-44ft boats. It came off a C 
30-1.

Anyone out there with a boomkicker or perhaps in the opposite situation with a 
rigid vang that might be interested in a trade?

Contact Garhauer by telephone. If you email them, you will be instructed 
to call them on the phone anyway. :-)


http://garhauermarine.com

They can ship you different rated springs to better match your boat. 
It's not a major deal to do this. Every boat is different and sometimes 
a brand new Garhauer vang will have springs that are either too strong 
or too weak. There are a variety of springs to chose from. This is where 
you find out about Garhauer's exceptional service.
