This forum is amazing! Great knowledgable people!
I just got some new blocks to assemble a more hardy boom vang than the one that I got with my boat. The one that came with the boat includes the streel line with teh swaged ball on the end to fit into the slot on the base of lower side of the mast.
My options are to have a small section of steel cable made that will have a loop and a ball swaged on that I can connect to the block or I can get an eye strap placed on the base of the boom and just connect the block with the little pin that is built into it.
Any suggestions, recomenations or warning about which drirection I should be heading here?
Thanks-
Paul
