Marseilles International Match Race Day One gets blown away

10:29 PM Wed 11 Mar 2009 GMT

Strong winds have delayed the start of the Marseilles International as racing was postponed, scheduled to start tomorrow when the winds are forecast to die down.

The line up to this year's first World Tour is outstanding, with nine of the top ten ranked skippers competing, along with the two qualifying skippers - Ainslie and Morvan who are ranked 12th and 13th respectively. Then of course, who could forget the America's Cup champion Ed Baird who has committed to the 2009 World Match Racing Tour.
