Love this sailboat. Best sailing I've done other than windsurfing which is hard to beat.
Here's a link to a photo of what I want to add to my Tornado.
By the way it look like a genniker sail to me but maybe it's a spinnaker?
No html tags allowed then how can I show what I'm looking for.
Sorry if this offends the moderation.
no offense intended.

Hi Mike, those are not gennikers. those are regulation spins. You can get all the gear (pole. hoop, lines, blocks, advice, etc) from Robbie Daniels (pro racer) and his wife Jill Nickerson at funinthesun@juno.com. I have purchased 3 sails and my spin ring from them. They are great to work with..

The only time i ever heard of a Tordado using a genniker was during the last Olympics, team USA tried to be sneaky and use a Code Zero sail... didn't work out well at all..
