‘Round World Green Voyage Complete!
Travelers who went around the world in sustainable green style can finally rest their feet! Or motors, as this case may be.
Earthrace, a 78-foot green powerboat landed in Cork, Ireland yesterday. When it did, it set a new world record
The boat is made out of carbon composites and runs on biofuel made out of animal fat, rape seed, soybeans and other biodiesel sources.
The Earthrace crew includes Irish sailors Fred Holland and Adrian Erangey from Cork.
Next year, Earthrace hopes to break the world record that was set by British powerboat, Cable & Wireless.
You can check out this fantastic boat — and maybe meet her crew — at Cork’s city quays until July 13.
