Departing from Rio de Janeiro on 11 April 2009 at 15:00 local time or 20:00 CEST* (BST+1), the fleet will pass the Fernando Noronha Gate, leaving the Mark to port side before heading to the United States of America and Boston.
As usual, we remind you that if you cannot be connected at the time of departure, your boat will be launched automatically at the best angle for the first few hours of the race until your first connection. However, we cannot guarantee that the boat will take the optimal route.
