It should have just focused on infinity because the whale was a fair distance away.

The problem might be up and down motion of the boat/camera affecting where you are focused at the instant the shutter is pressed.

Also, I have found that sometimes when focusing at a distant object near the horizon the camera has a hard time determining correct focus. This has been especially true shooting wildlife on the ground from a long distance
