Earthrace biodiesel boat in South Florida

Earthrace_1 The Earthrace has arrived in South Florida. And quite a sight it is too. It's arrival at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show has raised quite a bit of interest in the local media here, with reports in the Miami Herald in English and Spanish (see below).

For those of you not familiar with the Earthrace it's an attempt to circumnavigate the globe in record time on a futuristic biofuels powered boat. The boat uses biodiesel to power its twin 540-horsepower engines.
