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. Dennis C.
