Technical Tuesday: Boom Vangs


Listen Later

This week we are having a chat about boom vangs. I am often surprised at how many of my students purchase boats that do not have on rigged up! They are an essential part of trimming your sail and can be key when sailing in heavy weather.

Some of the marine stores will have boom vang kits that you can purchase, so it is ready to be attached at the base of the mast and up on your boom quickly. Easy to rig up and will help you sail more efficiently.


Here are some useful links for you…
