Earthrace biodiesel boat tries for record, again
Last year's voyage ended after a string of setbacks, including a collision with small fishing boat off the coast of Guatemala that left one fisherman dead. One year later, the crew is just as dedicated -- if not more so. Back in December, the captain actually had his body fat liposuctioned and blended into the biodiesel. Now that's dedication.
I'll say this much: it looks like the fastest boat that ever tried to circumnavigate the earth. I'm not too keen on the name Earthrace, but it's soo much better than Cable and Wireless, that I hope the biodiesel cruiser wins just based on the name alone. The fact that it's running on biodiesel is kind of a bonus.
