Earthrace - zero emissions and globally cool
In June 2008, the amazing Earthrace vessel set a new world record for a powerboat to circle the globe, and she did this with 100% renewable biodiesel fuel, and a net zero carbon footprint. The voyage was over 24,000 nautical miles, and took 60 days, 23 hours and 49 minutes, smashing the old reocrd by over two weeks.
This remarkable boat leaves Australia from Melbourne on 1 February. The super-futuristic boat featured on today's show is open for everyone to see so feel free to come down and bring the kids!
