Usually adjustable, normally a diagonal brace that connects to the mast base at deck level and connects the mainsail boom about 1/4 to 1/5th of the distance from the gooseneck (hing connecting the boom to the mast)
Also called "the kicker" in UK or "contra" in Spanish.
Many modern boom vangs also support the mainsail boom at rest.
Usually have a large mechancial advantage with line and blocks, or hydraulics.
