A hydraulic sailboat boom vang will provide maximum control over your boom during sailing and makes reefing and flaking of your mainsail easy as it also acts as a topping lift for boat. The Holmatro® boom vang combines power and ease of use with a high return force. The sailboat oil passage through the piston rod reduces the length of the hydraulic hose and therefore the risk of damage. In combination with our push button quick release you can dump the vang instantaneously.
The hydraulic vangs enable the mainsail leech tension to be trimmed to an extremely fine degree from the cockpit; they also provide sailboat boommarine lift in light for boat air conditions, when furling, reefing or flacking. Hi-tech materials and advanced design for top for boat performance, reliability and lightweight. Black hard coated aluminium for cylinder tube and boat terminals, Nitronic 50 stainless steel for piston rod and 17-4-PH stainless steel for marine pins. For the safety of the yatch, the vang can be instantaneously dumped using the CARITEC quick release valve for boat.
SAILTEC manufactures sailboat boom vangs in the same manner as its standard cylinders. The boom vang has a nitrogen return system and in most marine cases will support the weight of the boom, eliminating the need for a topping marine lift.
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 for boats 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.
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.
