Day 3 of the 505 Worlds at Crosshaven, Ireland, completed and still only one race on the leader board.
With a second day of racing lost, pressure is on to get some races completed on Thursday, a scheduled lay day.
Four races are required to be completed to constitute a championship series, but the weather forecast is not looking hopeful.
For the second day in a row the planned racecourse offshore had zero wind and an attempt was made to race on the inshore course where there has been localised breeze inshore over the last few days.
The 505 class requires more than 5 knots over the course otherwise racing is abandoned. Two races were started in 7-8 knots but both were abandoned halfway through when it dropped to 3 knots.
Racing is scheduled to finish on Saturday 13 August.
