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.
