(See Lever Bar Vang
diagram)
Make sure you can pull it all the way on (grommet to the boom if necessary!)
and
ease it completely off.
The Cunningham is led outside the Boom gooseneck and Vang blocks through
the
pad eye welded on the gooseneck, through the sail grommet and tied off
to the
opposite pad eye.
When your Vang is all the way on it should pull the end of the boom down
about 3
inches past 90 º as referenced from the mast. You need a lot of Vang
to be fast on
those breezy reaches!
The maximum Vang off position
is when the end of the boom can be lifted
approximately 1.5 feet off the transom. This can be adjusted to your height.
Always check over your Vang system for wear before sailing as it takes
a lot of load.
Broken Vangs are almost impossible to fix on the water.
