| Also in the Bamar New Zealand catalogue will be vangs and genoa furling systems, both manual and electric, which can be easily retrofitted to existing yachts. |
| Hydraulic vangs change the height of the boom to help control sail shape. |
| We learned about outhauls and backstays and boom vangs and halyards and cunninghams, bowlines and clove hitches and scallops and sculling. |
| This makes them perfect for use with modern, stiff sailcloth and efficient rigid vangs. |
| For example, Siandra was an early to use boom vangs and in the days when all spinnakers were set in stops, she was the first on Sydney Harbour to set them flying. |
| Small jibs and loose boom vangs were the order of the day as a pumping sea breeze that topped 20 knots saw Artemis win all six races. |
