boom vang install...

My local NAVTEC hydraulics expert came out and helped me install the hydraulic line to the boom vang late Wednesday evening (we both have regular jobs too). After swaging new fittings on the line, we fed it through the hole in the mast, bled the air out of the line and pressure tested it...voila! works like a charm. The other image is one end of the traveler mount which I had to grind down, fair with West System Epoxy, and prep for new paint. Pics of that job to follow.
