Hello Tornado Sailors and Others,
If the system is working right, the other multihull classes are feeder classes to the Tornado class. The Tornado class is the Olympic class, as we all know, therefore it is the class with the best sailors. Sailors who become champions in X, Y, or Z class, if they want to try for a higher level of sailing capability, they can get in the Tornado class and strive to become an even better sailor. To win a gold medal in the Olympics is the best, highest level of achievement, there is in any sport.
The Tornado is the Olympic class not because it is the fastest catamaran and not because it is a big class, but because it is the most responsive catamaran sailboat to excellent sailing skills. The Tornado class is to sailing what the Gaint Downhill ski slope is to snow skiing.
