ACBarnett,

I suggest you join the TornadoCat list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TornadoCat/


Geoff Dobbs who ran Sailcraft of Canada frequent the list, and he might have built your boat if it is canadian. There are also lots of other people there who are familiar with older T's, conversion to the olympic rig etc.

I would be leery of upgrading such an old boat to the olympic rig. The loads are higher, so I would expect something to break. But post as many details as you know to the list and you will get the best Tornado advice available.
