Barton Marine Laser Replica 15:1 Boom Vang Assembly

The Barton Marine Laser Replica 15:1 Boom Vang Assembly provides a ready-to-install boom-control purchase for sailors who want a compact vang setup. The 15:1 mechanical advantage reduces the effort needed to control boom position and leech tension. Snap-shackle or swivel-head hardware, where specified for this model, makes the system quick to rig and remove when needed. Barton Marine supplies these systems professionally assembled so the major purchase components work together as a matched set.

The Barton boom vang assembly gives all the advantages of systems costing twice the price. 15:1 purchase is achieved through clever design of the base plate, fitted with the unique Barton swivelling triple cam block. It is simple to fit and easy to use. The assembled purchase is intended to simplify a vang refit by supplying the main blocks and running line as a matched group.
