[Alberg30] boom vangs and Joe #499

[Jay Davenport]

Chris,
Which model Garhauer rigid boom vang did you get? I also am interested in getting rid of my topping lift.
Have you installed the vang yet? Any complications?

quite new to the list as well (3 yrs), I purchased Kasia #383 and the list has 
been an intregal part of the boat.

I am in the process of installing a Hard-Vang; I purchased 
the "Garhauer".....Georges comments are absolutely perfect...however, my 
topping lift bothers me a lot and I wanted to get away from looking at it chafe 
the main...I bought a cockpit topping lift adjuster but it doesn't do much when 
the boom is not reach-able, so I decided to spend the $265 to get the hard vang
