Tornado 5.8

nworthy · 10 June 2019, 17:25

Hi everyone, new here.

Selling my Four Winns LIBERATOR 201 in order to get a rib, know of a possible tornado 5.8 for sale.

Issue is, I'd like a double centre console and 4x Jockies or 2x Jockies and a bench.

However I cannot for the life of me find this set up on a 5.8 tornado! Even a friend with a 5.5 ballistic has this set up.

Any advice or pictures would be great, plus links to where to buy (for a reasonable price) !! Thanks!
Nick

I had a Tornado years ago, as I remember very narrow beam hence no double console

So I've taken a look around the site and saw Kraken ribs used to make Tornados, I wonder if they'll have the sizing of how to fit double console and 4x jockies like seen above in? Also, where does everyone buy their seats/consoles? Looked online and new prices are astonishing!!

Cheers much appreciated, will be listing current boat this weekend and looking at potential new one. Go from there and then look at seating/console. If I get the bug *no doubt I will*. Upgrade in time 😁
