These pictures were provided by Bob New. They show his under deck vang control.
| Bob uses the yoke to reduce the distance that the boom
vang has to travel. Notice the standoff that has been mounted on
the tabernacle to keep the vang off of the other lines.
The picture also show the anchor mounted to the tabernacle. He has mounted an eye strap to the tabernacle and the keelson slides into the eye strap to keep the anchor in place. |

Here are the controls for the boom vang, closest to the bow, the spinnaker topping lift and the spinnaker halyard. Bob indicated that there is a small strip of metal behind each vertical cam to prevent rope burn on teh centerboard cap. Note the Davis sticky bag that is used to collect the excess mainsheet. These use suction cups to mount to the centerboard trunk. Another bag is mounted to the starboard side of the trunk to store the centerboard pennant. |
