"Capt. Mooron" wrote "Bart Senior" wrote | 1 point each | | What are the benefits of Rigid Boom Vangs? The only real benefit I can see on a cruiser would be the ability to negate the use of the topping lift on the boom. | | What are the various types? I believe there are hydraulic, compressed air and spring loaded varieties. | | How do they compare with conventional Vangs/Topping Lifts? More complicated design and thus you pay for the ease of use by possible a failure being much more difficult to repair at sea. Stiffer performance and less need for adjustments. |
