MrWiggly 0 Posted October 12, 2007 Share Posted October 12, 2007 (edited) Hi all .. This boat was first spotted by Happy Dude, who managed to get a couple of quick shots of her when she was berthed up in Edinburgh earlier this year. I managed to get a look around her as she paid a flying visit to the Fowey estuary in Cornwall UK, on the final leg of her European tour. ------------------------------------------- With her sleek hull lines, and her massive power, the EarthRace will make any red-blooded male stop and stare. This has got to be one of the most beautiful powerboats ever built. Her massive engines are designed to run on BioDiesel, which is derived from raw, and recycled, vegetable oil.(Chip Shop Waste !!) Unlike convential hull designs which ride up and over a wave, the hull of the EarthRace is designed to cut through and under a wave. Thus practically eliminating the stresses that can cause hull, and crew, damage. It has been reported that, whilst on speed trial, there were occasions when there was 15ft of water ON TOP of the windscreen !! Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ....... -------------------------------------- Edited October 12, 2007 by MrWiggly The Older I get .. The better I was. Link to post Share on other sites

peter mccue 0 Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 That's one hell of a boat that would get you to those far off wrecks in a blink! But where do you stand to fish, where are the rod holders? Methinks someone didn't think this one through! Peter. The loose lines gone..STRIKE. Link to post Share on other sites
