Yes, I use one. A huge improvement over the topping lift particularly in light air. Installed
it myself, about a three hour job including breaking a tap tool. The boat still has the
original "roller" boom which hasn't been used for years and of course if now impossible to
use with the rigid vang.
All the best.

Hi,
Anyone here use a rigid vang on their T27? I know it looks really out
of place but I would love to get rid of the topping lift set-up on my
boat and this seems to be a really slick option. I was at Strictly
Sail in Chicago this weekend and talked to the Garhauer people. Real
sturdy and the people who use em' love em. Just wanted to see if
anyone here has one?
thanks
