I should clarify. I can't install a solid vang and still have the
hatch open forward. I don't want to turn the hatch around, I could but
it would cut down on air flow while anchored. I can install a rope
vang and still use the hatch, once the vang is slack. I installed new
main sheet and blocks this season. Was thinking of using the old as a
vang.

Exactly. That's an old fashioned term, though.

So is 'sailing'.
