I wouldn't do that Doug.
If that nail ever hit someone on the head it's
gonna leave more than a mark. ' might even ruin the day. :)

Bob, on Pegasus I replaced the station bases so
I clip the vang there for a preventer. I am
thinking of installing a nail on the end of my
boom, and running a line forward to the bow
cleat and back again to a cleat at the stern.
I'll use this when sailing long distances. I
have also used a shroud chain plate.

My vang is now led aft as well and I like it that way a lot.
Where do you guys hook the preventer on the deck
end with boats not having a slotted toe
rail? I've used a block on the forward end of
the genoa track but it seems like a lot of load for such a track.

We were racing an Evelyn 32 downwind in heavy
air years ago. We essentially used the vang to
trim the main. As the main loaded up, we'd
ease the vang. As the wind eased, we'd trim
the vang in. Couldn't have done that easily if
the vang hadn't been run to the cockpit.
That experience stayed with me when I was
rigging Touche'. Touche's vang is run to a rope clutch on the cabintop.
