Team New Zealand's Camper has made up swift ground while the rest of the Volvo Ocean Race fleet barely drifts in the doldrums.

Camper's moved from fourth overnight up to second and now just 10 nautical miles behind new leg leaders Telefonica.

The Spanish syndicate has leapt to the front of the five-strong fleet as previous leaders Groupama drift 47 miles off the pace.

It's unknown how any of the boats have got to their positions as they've all entered stealth mode in a bid to avoid pirates in the Indian Ocean.
