I can’t speak about the Garhauer vang, but the Boomkicker would keep your boom too high if you don’t have it pulled down (by the vang or sheet). The rigid vang should be able to keep the boom’s weight (and then some).
I have no topping lift (a nuisance, as a few already mentioned) and I can keep the end of the boom where I want it (above the bimini).

One thing I do like about the topping lift is the ability to raise the boom high when anchored, so it clears the bimini on our 35-2. Will I lose this ability with a rigid vang? How much lift will it provide at rest? -- Shawn Wright shawngwri...@gmail.com<mailto:shawngwri...@gmail.com> S/V Callisto, 1974 C&C 35 https://www.facebook.com/SVCallisto
