Looking at the factory F18s v's the good Tornadoes that are on our shore or who have visited...... The Ts have had the flashier systems.

I have found that a factory F18 is pretty agricultural compared to the custom layouts of the Ts. We have and continue to modify our Capricorn with simular systems as the Euro T sailors are using.

All the top boats, both T, F18 or any other make usually have undergone a custom lay out with a strong emphasis on clean, minimalistic, user freindly systems that are both light and reliable.

Most if not all boat manufactures compramise some quality for the sake of $$$$ when producing their product. Personaly I would like to have the option of having my boat fitted out from the factory with the best of everything or without fittings and lines for a reduced price.
