Rigid Boom Vang Replacement Needed

Post by ElizabethG »

Hi All,

I noticed this weekend that my rigid boom vang, on my 2004 350, hull # 193, it bent.

I'd like to replace it with a stock unit. I'm not looking for a racing version.

If anyone has replaced theirs, I'd be grateful for your source, or recommendation.

Thanks,

Try Garhauer Marine. I believe the owner owns a 350.

They made the original vang and much of the hardware on our boats.
Mine bent also a number of years ago.
I replaced it with a newer model.
Call them and tell them what happened...maybe they will do something.

The owner has Hull #1 of our 350 so they know exactly what you need.

They truly are great to deal with.

Good Luck!
