New Zealand yacht Camper has won the the ninth and final leg of the Volvo Ocean Race, but it was the boat finishing second, France's Groupama 4, which claimed the overall around-the-world title.
Camper, skippered by Australian Chris Nicholson, crossed the finishing line in Galway, Ireland at 00:42 GMT this morning , seven minutes ahead of Groupama 4, skippered by Franck Cammas.
39-year-old Cammas is the first Frenchman to win the competition - considered the pinnacle of ocean racing -- since Lionel Pean led Team Spirit to victory in the 1985-1986 edition.
