Volvo Ocean Race 2011/12: Camper return to heroes' welcome in Auckland with dazzling in-port win The crew of Camper with Emirates Team New Zealand, who are currently lying thirds overall on the leaderboard, are mainly Kiwis but the win was not a result of local knowledge Nicholson added. Local knowledge wasn't much help because of all the spectator craft - there were around 1,000 boats out there and they chopped up the breeze. There was plenty of well-wishing but also plenty of pressure so it was a good thing for the whole programme, not just for the sailors but for everyone. Groupama, winners of Leg 4, came third while Mike Sanderson, another Kiwi came fourth on Team Sanya but there was more disappointment for Ian Walker on Abu Dhabi Ocean Racing who ran out fifth after fouling up a gennaker drop at the bottom mark. Instead of dropping it down cleanly on the foredeck, it shrouded the helmsman Walker and fell into the water slowing the boat right down as Abu Dhabi passed under the Auckland harbour bridge. Race leaders Telefonica had a day to forget, starting badly and remaining steadfastly at the back of the fleet.
