VMG 470 Boom With The End Capes And Holes

THE CHAMPION’S VMG BOOM
The VMG 470 boom was designed for the Class champion team of Takis Mantis/Pavlos Kagialis and perfected through hundreds of hours of training and races at the highest level of competition.

Manufactured from aluminum alloy, the boom displays considerable stiffness, which improves overall the reactions of the boat and especially the rig in the 8-12 knot range where the mainsail is trimmed primarily via the boom-vang. This characteristic allows for faster and better control of the mainsail leach while the sail and boat response. In 2017 a further step was taken and we removed the fittings of the boomvang and the mainsail sheet. Instead we made holes to the side walls and we designed special fittings. Additionally the blocks were attached to the boom with ropes.
This modification allowed a much better performance exclusively due to the boom.
