World Cruising Club have announced that the 2019 edition of the ARC Channel Islands rally will be postponed until August 2020. The cross-channel cruising rally will now be held on similar dates in 2020 on the same route incorporating Cherbourg, Guernsey, Jersey and Alderney. Full details of the route will be available for the Southampton Boat Show in September 2019. By delaying the rally until next year, World Cruising Club aim to build entry numbers for participation, and to run the rally in alternate years to the biennial ARC Baltic rally.
