Skipper Chris Nicholson onboard CAMPER with Emirates Team New Zealand during leg 1 of the Volvo Ocean Race 2011-12, from Alicante, Spain to Cape Town, South Africa. Hamish Hooper/Camper ETNZ/Volvo Ocean Race

A tough day at the office for Camper sailed by Emirates Team NZ as the boat heads west in search of breeze and to catch-up with the rest of the fleet

The joint Spainish/New Zealand entry is now 80nm behind the race leader, and 77nm behind the third placed boat. There is a lot of catching up to be done, and skipper Chris Nicholson is clearly not happy in this onboard video
