2026 Finn World Masters at the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron - Day 4

23-27 February 2026
All racing was cancelled on Day 4 of the Porsche Centre Brisbane 2026 Finn World Masters at the Royal Queensland Yacht Squadron, in Brisbane, Australia.
All the forecasts proved correct, with more than 20 knots by 11.00, so an early call was made to allow the sailors to make other plans for the day. It was the correct decision, with the wind later exceeding 30 knots.
Brendan Casey, from Australia, holds a four point leads over Rafa Trujillo from Spain in second with Karl Purdie from New Zealand another seven points behind in third. Both Casey and Purdie are discarding a high score, with Trujillo discarding a fifth, so the event could be decided on one race, but more likely is going down to the wire on Waterloo Bay.
Friday is the final day with two races scheduled from 11.00. The cut off for the last warning is 15.00
