Choices

If you want to get rid of topping lift go with ridgid vang or add boomkicker to normal vang. Maybe on 22 footer cunningham and outhaul is enough?

I apologize for not replying sooner. WiFi been down.

...except that the Garhauer tackle vang is only $100-120. (not counting the needed bails). So, is it worth paying more that 2x as much for the rigid vang? Maybe.
I have top lifting so at this time I feel that all I need is a block and tackle vang. When we get more experience and a larger boat then would consider the additional cost of a rigid vang.

Thanks one an all for your comments.
