I would second the Garhauer experience. They can recommend size and build
flange fit to your mast and great to work with. Try catching them at a boat
show or during a show for best price.

I have a used Garhauer rigid vang that I figure is too big (or borderline) for
my C&C 27-3. It’s an older RV20-1 that’s for 28-44ft boats. It came off a C&C
30-1.
Anyone out there with a boomkicker or perhaps in the opposite situation with a
rigid vang that might be interested in a trade?

Contact Garhauer by telephone. If you email them, you will be instructed
to call them on the phone anyway. :-)

They can ship you different rated springs to better match your boat.
It's not a major deal to do this. Every boat is different and sometimes

If all you want to do is get rid of the topping lift, you might consider
just adding a Boomkicker, which only keeps the boom from falling down.
Then you could keep your manual vang, would cost quite a bit less. I'm
happy with that arrangement, though I always put my main halyard on the

I have a Boomkicker, but if I were to do it again, I would install Garhauer
rigid vang. The cost is not that much different, but it seems to me that the
Garhauer vang is a bit more solid.
Btw. The Boomkicker is pretty strong. I would not seat on the boom, but you can

I wonder if anyone at Garhauer monitors this list. It almost sounds that we are

I agree, you can buy a bunch of Garhauer gear for the price of a new Hall

Good timing on this topic, I just finished installing my new Garhauer
RV-20-1SL vang. Thinking about writing a blog post on it (svviolethour.com)
since I've been so happy with it so far (though haven't yet used it
sailing! Just installed 3 days ago).
It's the best deal in boating I've found so far
Chuck,
I installed a Garhauer RV20-1SL several years ago now. I have an Offshore rig
so the mast and boom already had the needed brackets for mounting. You will
want to ask for the strong springs (yellow) when you order it. There are three.
Great van for main trimming. I lead it back to the cock
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.
