Mark Chisnell previews the action for Leg 6 for B&G: Already back in the Atlantic, now the teams will return to the northern hemisphere as they race from Itajai, Brazil to Newport, Rhode Island, USA.
It's 5,010 miles, and there's another crossing of the Doldrums and hopefully lots of fast trade wind sailing.
The In-Port Race will be on April 18th, with the leg start on April 19th at 17:00 UTC (2pm local).
