Late surprise : quoted tornado prices are EXCLUDING taxes

International Tornado website is source of late surprise

I quote directly

"Both boats are priced competitively with the Exploder being €15,900 and the Marstrom being €25,900, these prices are excluding tax and delivery but include a full suit of Ullman One Design Sails and a Carbon Mast."


Well, there it is.

Many of us were suspecting something fishy was going on with the Tornado quotes as is the case with many of the Tornado-trials related statements lately.

Taxes in euro zone are 19% VAT and that places the Exploder Tornado at € 18.921 when you pick it up yourself in Poland. A carbon masted F16 from one of the EU agents (UK, NL, France, ITA or Belgium) will be cheaper then that.

A Marstrom Tornado, that you have to pick up in Sweden, will set you back a € 30.821


Go figure,
