Vang; Traveler; Mainsheet; Rudder Assembly - Vanguard ZUMA Rigging Manual

The vang system consists of two blocks and a line. The block with
a shackle attaches to the eyestrap on the underside of the boom.
The block with a v groove cleat and shackle attaches to the eye-
strap on the mast. Lay out the block w/ shackle to the right of
the block with vcleat, leaving about two feet between the two. Tie
one end of the vang line to the becket on the block w/ shackle,
run it through the nearest sheave of the block w/ vcleat, back
through the sheave in the block w/ shackle, through the second
sheave of the block w/ vcleat and out through the cleat. Make sure
the line runs without crosses between the two blocks.
Locate the traveler line and double traveler block and tie the trav-
eler line to the padeye on one side of the stern. Thread the other
end of the line through the small double block, and tie it off to the
padeye on the opposite side of the stern. The traveler should be
rigged loosely to avoid damaging the mast.
Attach the mainsheet block to the eyestrap at the forward end of
the hiking strap. Lay the boom on the deck so that the block clos-
est to the end of the boom is even with the stern and the other
end points toward the bow. Thread the mainsheet through the
ratchet block AGAINST the ratchet, through the forward block on
the boom, aft along the boom, and through the aft block. Lead it
through the top of the double traveler block previously attached
to the traveler line from aft to forward, then take it up to the
becket on the block on the boom and tie it off with a figure eight
knot.
Attach the rudder to the tiller using the supplied bolt and washers.
The washers should sit between the tiller and the rudder, one on
each side. For extra security, tape the cover plate of the tiller
extension to the tiller to prevent unexpected extension removal.
