The wind was just too strong on day 3 of the Fireball World Championships, hitting 46 knots, and racing was cancelled.
This means that the lay day Wednesday will now be used for racing to keep things on Schedule
The championship is hosted by the Royal Geelong Yacht Club, Australia, from 11 to 16 February.
