Earthrace - a vehicle for fuel change

Team Earthrace, led by New Zealand Skipper Pete Bethune, has smashed the world circumnavigation record for a speedboat by almost 14 days. Almost five years of preparation, planning and two record attempts have paid off leaving the bio-diesel powered Earthrace team to claim the round the world speedboat record.

It’s a proud moment and one to savour. For many who have followed the race team’s trials and tribulations it has been a nail biting roller coaster ride of anticipation.
