Thanks to all of you who responded so quickly about my question of what fasteners to use to attach my new boom vang to the mast and boom. Clearly the consensus is to use SS screws with TefGel, not pop rivets. Just what I needed to know. Thanks! Eric Frank Cat's Paw C&C 35 Mk II Mattapoisett,

Like others have said, either stainless rivets or drill and tap and coat threads with Tef Gel. If you don't have a Big Daddy rivet tool, you're left with drill and tap. A home type rivet tool can handle aluminum rivets but will struggle with 1/4 inch SS rivets. If it doesn't complete the pull, y

Eric,   I would be concerned that aluminum pop rivets wouldn't be strong enough.  They may be.  I drilled and tapped for stainless, used antiseize. Have removed one at a time yearly since just to check. All good. Bill Walker CnC 36 Evening Star Pentwater, Mi Sent from AOL Mobile Mail On

Just installing a Garhauer boom vang on Cat’s Paw this winter. Do you guys recommend aluminum pop rivets - in case I ever need to remove it? In my experience, SS screws tapped into the mast or boom hold fine but are a devil to get out because of electrolysis. The pop rivets can just be drille
