Strong winds caused by the remains of Ex-hurricane Bertha have postponed the start of the Sevenstar Round Britain and Ireland Race.
The race was due to start in Cowes on the Isle of Wight today, but will now begin at 9am tomorrow.
The Royal Racing Club, which runs the event, had already changed the route from clockwise to anti-clockwise around the British Isles yesterday because of Bertha.
New photos from the organisers show wind speeds of 28 knots within Cowes Yacht Haven, with expected winds of 40 knots (46mph) with gusts in excess of 50 knots (57mph) in the English Channel.
