I did a survey about a 2 years ago. I came up with Hood (google Performance
Vang) and Garheurer. You might use that as a starting point.

We JUST (like today) had our new Garhauer rigid vangs installed on our F-33. I
can attest to the workmanship and appearance, but we have not sailed with them
yet. There are 2 photos of another Garhauer vang on the freedomyachts2003 group
site.

The original equipment on my Freedom 35 is a Hall Quick Vang. Its 11 years
old and still working fine.

I’m installing boomkickers on my F-33 this week. Can’t comment yet. Did look at many other options.

I’ve got Garhauer rigids on my F40. They’re beefy, perform as
advertised, and I was pretty amazed by the price.
