Despite an attractive entry list of Class40 in the next Rolex Fastnet Race, the 2013 Worlds 2013 held in Plymouth has reached too little interest.
With only 6 entries, the organizers chose to cancel the event for financial reasons.
As the logistic is in place, at the request of competitors, the Royal Western Yacht Club decided nevertheless to maintain a 4-day event for entered boats.
Although the "World Champion" title, held by Gonzalo Botin & crew, will not be defended this year, the Class40 yachts will compete as hard as usual on British water.
