A hydraulic boom vang from Holmatro provides maximum boom control while sailing and when moored. It makes reefing and flaking of your mainsail easy as it also acts as a topping lift. A variety of control panels are available for easy adjustment. In combination with our quick release the vang can be dumped instantly. Advanced design techniques and materials keep weight to a minimum.
A Seldén Rodkicker facilitates sail handling when reefing, preventing the boom from dropping into the cockpit or onto the coach roof. When fitted with a Seldén fas spring, it lifts the boom when the kicking strap is released.
Excellent for trimming the main in light air. The Seldén Rodkicker also doubles the purchase of your kicking strap.
The hydraulic vangs enable the mainsail leech tension to be trimmed to an extremely fine degree from the cockpit; they also provide boom lift in light air conditions, when furling, reefing or flacking. Hi-tech materials and advanced design for top performance, reliability and lightweight. Black hard coated aluminium for cylinder tube and terminals, Nitronic 50 stainless steel for piston rod and 17-4-PH stainless steel for pins. For the safety of the yacht, the vang can be instantaneously dumped using the CARITEC quick release valve.
Hall Spars & Rigging's QuikVang is the original high-performance solid vang. It's simple, easy to instal, easy to use, and it lasts. As Pracitcal Sailor magazine wrote "[the QuikVang] was designed right in the beginning." That's why you'll see QuikVangs still performing after years on the water. Hall Spars & Rigging introduced the original QuikVang in 1986. The QuikVang is a mechanical van that relies on the simplicity of an inner stainless steel spring and external purchase. More than 20 years later, the original vang is the standard by which all mechanical vangs are measured.
