The Boat Geeks #24 - Capt. Peter Wilcox (Inside Passage Decarbonization Project) Recorded 9.7.24 at the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival
Captain Peter and First Mate Bridget Bayer are living proof you can 100% use renewable diesel on your boat. They have taken their vessel Ama Natura to Alaska every summer for 16 years. And during that entire time, they have never used a drop of petroleum-based diesel, motor oil, transmission fluid, hydraulic fluid, or any oil-based lubricants.
Recorded on location in the Fisheries Supply "Live at the Wooden Boat Festival Stage" during the 2024 Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival (PTWBF), your hosts Darren and Daeron take a deep dive into the world of boating.
This episode: The Boat Geeks learn that renewable diesel is better than petroleum diesel in many ways. It is cleaner, non-toxic, and contains more energy per molecule than traditional diesel. Invented in Finland, it is more widespread in Europe where it is often called green diesel. Renewable diesel is very different from the more commonly known bio-diesel, and is currently available at many fuel docks in California and British Columbia.
