Small boat blocks > Dinghy Vang System
Our Dinghy Vang comes reeved with line for a powerful 15:1 system. Constructed with a 3:1 cascade inside a 5:1 purchase, the vang housing is tough stainless steel with lightening holes to minimize weight. The stainless steel mast bracket fits most masts.
We used extremely small, strong blocks to build this system: 16 mm AirBlocks®to handle high loads, and the Micro Carbo-Cam® for precise trim. The Carbo-Cam® pivots to keep a fair lead, so it's easy to cleat—even if you're hiked out. It also angles up and down to accommodate mounting height. There is even a clevis pin to attach yourcunningham.
The Dinghy Vang comes with low-stretch polyester line. It has a maximum mast to boom distance of 30" (760 mm). You can shorten the system by a simple line adjustment.
