Earthrace is a 78-foot boat that that is currently racing to be the fastest boat to circumnavigate the globe—and to do it on 100% biodiesel. The craft itself is designed to be an exciting example of low-emission powerboat engines coupled with non-toxic, efficient hull design. Earthrace cuts through waves instead of riding on top of them, which provides a smooth ride even in rough seas.

 

The craft has a 23-foot beam and a four-foot draught. It’s driven by two 2 x 350 kW, 540 hp Cummins Mercruisers that run on B100. It will travel 3,000 nautical miles (6,000 km) on 2,500 gallons (10,000 liters) of fuel.
