Anyone had any 1st hand experience with garhauer marine products? I am
planning to buy one of their boom vangs (see
www.garhauermarine.com/backcover.html). I am looking at their model
25SL3-1 at $65 although it looks like the 25S3-1 at $55 would do the job.
I'll ask them about the diference when I order, but the 25SL3-1 looks
nicer and the price seem fair if the quality is good. I would think that
3-1 would be more than enough mechanical advantage and the 1000 lb safe
working load enough for a P19, but looking for advice before I make the
purchase. Appreciate any and all advice.
