I have the old vang on a swivel with the cleating block on the mast (the new vang is nice, but very expensive). I have a lot of difficulty uncleating the vang at the windward mark (or at any point for that matter). It seems I have to move all the to the front and fight for balance as I manhandle the line out of the V cleat. I am using a 6-1 system with the tag end tied to my daggerboard shock cord if that matters. Anyone have a technique that does not require moving my weight all the way up to the mast?
