All summer series racers we are seeing 30-40kt gusts here now and forecast 40kt by 2000hrs we can not lay the marks in this so I’m cancelling the official summer race series race now avoiding unnecessary travel

The forecast is no better but there is a distinct appetite from many to sail.

We will leave the race in the calander for tomorrow and see how the conditions develop.

The final decision being made tomorrow evening.

We may run the event around the fixed marks available at skippers discretion.
