Looks radical. I wonder if 100% of that design is functional. Any idea how long it will be docked in Seattle? I'll be there in a couple weeks and wouldn't mind checking it out.

The vessel is here for this weekend only and then is heading south along the west coast. I recommend that you visit the Earthrace website and see where it is at later.
