I recently havev been given the oportunity to purchase an older tornado that is still in the original packaging. I can get it for $800, all I have to do is put it together, despite thevious flaw in this plan that I will likely have to buy lots of little things to do this. How difficult is it really to get this thing put together CORRECTLY. Is it worth it?? I'm pretty good with my hands, but I am no craftsman.

What manufacturer buildt it ?

US $ 800 sounds great to me, if the boat is complete with crossbeams, foils, deck gear and rigging.

If you have the main parts...it should take about 1 to 2 hours to assemble the boat...less if you have a helper and you know what to do.

Post your questions to the TornadoCat forum on Yahoo.com...you'll get loads of help.

Was started last year, after some troble with the forum software on the ITA web site. It is not an official ITA forum, but there are quite some T sailors there now..
