Mark Chisnell previews the action for Leg 7 – the classic trans-Atlantic stage that will take the fleet back to Europe where it all started just seven short months ago. The distance from Newport, Rhode Island, to Lisbon, Portugal is just 2,800 miles, so this is going to be over relatively quickly. The In-Port Race will be on May 16th at 19:00 UTC (2pm local), with the leg starting at 19:00 UTC (2pm local) on the 17th May.
