Mark, As I said, I have a Boomkicker and I eliminated the topping lift and added the vang. I think that the rigid vang might be a bit more serious solution, but my boomkicker is doing its job fine. I think it is a tad cheaper and a bit lighter.
You don’t _need_ to fiddle around with the vang all the time. But it is quite handy not to have to deal with the topping lift when you set or drop the sail. If you are getting the block and tackle from Garhauer, their van would come in the same shipment. You can get the Boomkicker at Biennale. Good luck Marek Sent from Mail for Windows 10
