This is where the difference between a "one manufacturer" class and a "one design" class become apparent. The beauty of a one design class like the Tornado and Taipan is that if one builder (boats,sails,tramps etc) goes off the rails a bit with quality or price there are plenty of others to choose from. this keeps the quality high and the prices reasonable. with one manufacturer classes you are effectivly held to ransom, and there are no market forces in place to regulate the quality or price.
