Volvo Ocean Race at Fan Pier Boston

 
The time has come, it's time for the sailors to leave Boston and make way for Galway Ireland.

The re-start of Leg 7 will be viewable from most points along the Fan Pier Harborwalk and suggest coming down early for a nice place to see the boats. They will pass by Fan Pier twice prior to leaving for Galway.
