Dean Barker has teamed up with his yachting arch-rival Jimmy Spithill on the water.
Barker, who was yesterday announced as the skipper and chief executive of new challenger Team Japan, will be working alongside Spithill and Oracle Team USA as the syndicate - a late entry for the 35th America's Cup in 2017 - gets up and running.
The former Team New Zealand skipper was this morning pictured alongside Oracle skipper Spithill ahead of a day of testing on the water in Bermuda.
"Who would have thought...#Mates #LetsGetDalton", Spithill posted on his Instagram account.
