How did you become involved with designing the Racebird for the E1 World Championship, the latest electric-vehicle racing series created by Alejandro Agag following Formula E and Extreme E?
With a single Mercury Racing E1-X electric outboard, the 23ft Racebird has a 150kW peak output plus 35kWh battery capacity I went to a Formula E race and met Alejandro Agag, the king of electric motorsports. I presented my idea for a 7m electric leisure boat, not for racing. I had been developing it for a year and had a full business plan.It was more for me to have a talk with him, so that maybe he could make introductions. A month later, he called me back and wanted me to do a more detailed presentation, then he became my first investor. I never believed he would become so involved.
Have the teams got room to adapt the boats, like with cars in Formula One, or is it strictly one-design?
