#VOLVO OCEAN RACE - The incredible finish of the latest leg of the Volvo Ocean Race wasn't the only drama on the high seas for one competing team.
Just days before CAMPER with Emirates Team New Zealand had the misfortune of stalling metres from the line in Lisbon on Friday night, they were involved in a near-miss with a whale in the North Atlantic, as the UK's Mirror reports.
The video above captures the team working quickly to alter their course to avoid the marine giant on their port side at a speed in excess of 20 knots.
It's that kind of quick thinking that separates the good from the great who take part on this round-the-world odyssey across the planet's toughest seas.
The CAMPER team currently lies fourth in the overall standings, 21 points behind new leaders Groupama.
