18ft Skiff Sixt Spring Championship Race 4 cancelled

by Frank Quealey 10 Nov 03:58 GMT 10 November 2024

Strong southerly winds, gusting to more than 30 knots, forced the cancellation of today's Race 4 of the Sixt Spring 18 footer championship on Sydney Harbour.

Next Sunday the Australian 18 Footers League will conduct Race 3 of the Club Championship.

Race 5 of the Sixt Spring Championship will be sailed in conjunction with the Club championship and the club's spectator ferry will follow the race, leaving Double Bay Public Wharf at 2pm.

SailMedia will livestream all the action.
