Vang
The 4:1 vang uses a combination of the lightest blocks Harken has ever built. The double-ended vang leads aft through a pair of 29 mm T2 blocks at the mast partners. The 2146 29 mm T2 easily ties or splices onto control lines which lead to a pair of 470 Micro cams with X-Treme Angle Fairleads. You can ease and cleat the vang while sitting on the rail without looking at the cleat.
Mainsheet Ratchet
The mainsheet is the Sabot’s throttle and must stand up to the constant trimming needed to get this dinghy moving. The 57 mm Carbo ratchet fits the bill. Light, strong, and grippy, the ratchet can easily be switched to free-spinning mode—even with a gloved hand!
