The Race Committee at the Perth 2011 ISAF Sailing World Championships this afternoon abandoned racing for the day due to prolonged electrical storms and a forecast that they would continue through to evening.

Fleet racing yachts had been held in their boat yards for the morning, awaiting news on the postponement of racing.
However, at 1350 Perth time, the Race Committee made the decision to abandon racing for the day.
The only races completed on day 4 were in the Women's Match Racing Group B sailing on Inner Harbour.
Women's Match Racing was ordered back to shore as the first of the electrical storms and rain approached the coast.

Any scheduling changes for tomorrow's racing will be announced later.
