This was the case for the likes of Redman (161), Banque du Leman (159) and Cr\u00e9dit Mutuel (158), the first three Class40s to round the first course mark to the south-west of the Saint-Marcouf islands, though having to punch tide in the easing wind conditions radically reshuffled the cards. As they launched into their channel hop, the boats with a scow bow, which have less of an advantage in the present conditions out on the racetrack, saw the older Class40s like Tales 2 (123), Vogue avec un Crohn (135) and Fondation Sextant \/ Amiral Gestion (134) make up the lost ground and reposition themselves in the peloton.<\/p>\n<p>After a night punctuated by tactical repositioning right across the board, the fleet has been embroiled in some close-contact racing, where close marking of fellow competitors has been key. The head of the fleet is now expected to reach the Isle of Wight at around 10:00 hours GMT before attacking the passage through the Solent over the course of the day. The current at the start of the latter should favour the Normandy Channel Race fleet, before gradually easing and thus enabling the front runners to steal a march in this long tricky section.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-separator size_small with_line width_default thick_1 style_solid color_border align_center\"><div class=\"w-separator-h\"><\/div><\/div><div class=\"wpb_text_column\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><p>Share this article:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><div class=\"w-sharing type_simple align_none color_default\"><div class=\"w-sharing-list\"><a class=\"w-sharing-item facebook\" href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sharer\/sharer.php?u=https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3085&amp;quote=A tactical channel hop\" title=\"Share this\" aria-label=\"Share this\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, &quot;facebook&quot;, &quot;toolbar=0,width=900,height=500&quot;); return false;\"><i class=\"fab fa-facebook\"><\/i><\/a><a class=\"w-sharing-item twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=A tactical channel hop&amp;url=https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3085\" title=\"Share this\" aria-label=\"Share this\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, &quot;twitter&quot;, &quot;toolbar=0,width=650,height=360&quot;); return false;\"><i class=\"fab fa-x-twitter\"><svg style=\"width:1em; margin-bottom:-.1em;\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\"><path fill=\"currentColor\" d=\"M389.2 48h70.6L305.6 224.2 487 464H345L233.7 318.6 106.5 464H35.8L200.7 275.5 26.8 48H172.4L272.9 180.9 389.2 48zM364.4 421.8h39.1L151.1 88h-42L364.4 421.8z\"\/><\/svg><\/i><\/a><a class=\"w-sharing-item linkedin\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/shareArticle?mini=true&amp;url=https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3085\" title=\"Share this\" aria-label=\"Share this\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, &quot;linkedin&quot;, &quot;toolbar=no,width=550,height=550&quot;); return false;\"><i class=\"fab fa-linkedin\"><\/i><\/a><a class=\"w-sharing-item pinterest\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3085&amp;media=https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200913NCR_1JML8551bd.jpg&amp;description=A tactical channel hop\" title=\"Pin this\" aria-label=\"Pin this\" onclick=\"window.open(this.href, &quot;pinterest&quot;, &quot;toolbar=no,width=700,height=300&quot;); return false;\"><i class=\"fab fa-pinterest\"><\/i><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><section class=\"l-section wpb_row height_large\"><div class=\"l-section-h i-cf\"><div class=\"g-cols vc_row via_flex valign_top type_default stacking_default\"><div class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column vc_column_container\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\"><div class=\"w-post-elm post_navigation layout_sided inv_false\"><a class=\"post_navigation-item order_first to_prev\" href=\"https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/great-strat-for-normandy-channel-race-2020-edition\/\" title=\"A GREAT START FOR THE NORMANDY CHANNEL RACE\u2019S 2020 EDITION!\"><div class=\"post_navigation-item-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/200913NCR_DJI_0091bd.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/div><div class=\"post_navigation-item-arrow\"><\/div><div class=\"post_navigation-item-title\"><span>A GREAT START FOR THE NORMANDY CHANNEL RACE\u2019S 2020 EDITION!<\/span><\/div><\/a><a class=\"post_navigation-item order_second to_next\" href=\"https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/en\/tough-exit-from-solent\/\" title=\"Tough exit from the Solent\"><div class=\"post_navigation-item-img\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/normandy-race.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/needles-isle-of-wight.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\"><\/div><div class=\"post_navigation-item-arrow\"><\/div><div class=\"post_navigation-item-title\"><span>Tough exit from the Solent<\/span><\/div><\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A tactical channel hop \u00a0 A tactical channel hop The start of the race yesterday saw the Class 40\u2019s latest additions gain the edge in the drag race out of the starting blocks.
