From the SIs

15.1     If there is no valid race on the Sunday, then the practice race
results from the Saturday will be used to determine this year’s Hoo Freezer
results.

So in future it will pay to do saturday aswell if this works out as the result for the event.

another question is how many times has it cancelled in the past

Retired now after 35 seasons in a row and time for a rest.

I can't remember it being cancelled before but I'm sure it's happened sometime in its long history. But it is always a good idea to sail both days - it's a nice place to sail after all, and for visitors a good opportunity to orientate yourself buoywise.

Gather it was another well-deserved win for Simon Allen in his Canoe.

That's why it's worth doing two days and making a weekend of it. I actually
think the saturday race should no longer be a practice race but instead a
race that actually counts.
1 big race per day, obviously no discard. I can't think of a good reason not
to seeming as they're already running it in the first place.

Doug, I wasn't aware it was a two day affair, it said Saturday was a practice race.

Saturday is a practice race, but it would be good if it actually counted and it
was a two day affair.

Especially as it has, from my memory, always been the case that the practice
race results will substitute the main day results if the race was unable to be
run for whatever reason.
