YACHT ROD™ The High Performance Spring-Loaded Mechanical Boom Vang Precision design in three sizes.  Large Yacht Rod for 41-45' boats.

Excellent vang/boom support for performance cruising and racing. White powder coated aluminum & polished stainless steel. Supplied with spectra cable ready to add your tackle system. Your 4:1 equals 8:1 when installed on Yacht Rod™. Can be led to small winch for additional power. Spring return holds boom. Brackets for mast and boom sold separately.

Caution: Oversheeting or leaning heavily on aft end of boom can bend the boom or the Yacht Rod™. The main halyard shackle should be snapped to the outboard boom end, in port, to prevent damage to the Yacht Rod™.

Note of Caution: Furling booms weigh as much as 3 times as much as standard booms. Standard vang spring will not support their weight. In rough weather and sea conditions, it is prudent to set a topping lift in case of a gooseneck failure or other boom equipment failure.

Forespar® makes three sizes of spring loaded boom vangs for boats starting around 30 feet and up to about 55 feet.

  • Eliminates need for boom topping lift
  • Supports boom in light air, when reefing and lowering mainsail
  • No gas spring to lose its charge
  • Faster than hydraulics – No messy hydraulics to leak
  • More efficient than conventional tackles
  • Tubing is white coated anodized 6061-T6 aluminum and electropolished 316 stainless steel
  • Precision machined 6061-T6 aluminum clevis ends, sheaves and Nylatron® bearings
  • Precipitation hardened stainless steel spring with fast-pin adjustment — rated for over 1 million compressions.
