On my 14, I use a shockcord boom vang. Since there is no jib to help the wind accelarate across the leeward side of the main, I strap this into the corner casting to help keep the leech tight and not raise the boom. It works great in chop as you can slightly sheet the sail in to help keep the mast rotated. Also, I reversed my trampoline (laces forward) and vang out about 12-18" upwind in chop to keep the mast from banging around. Vangs work on 14s!! Bob
