Testimonial: Gato Verde Adventure Sailing
I have been using biodiesel for marine propulsion since 1996 in a variety of, mostly older, diesel engines. There are many reasons why I have been willing to pay the (small) premium. It is renewable, domestic, clean burning, less toxic in its liquid state, has lower exhaust emissions & toxicity, and finally the exhaust doesn't smell as bad as petroleum diesel.
When I moved to Bellingham and started Gato Verde Adventure Sailing I made it a part of the mission of the company to be "a platform for demonstrating existing and evolving sustainable technologies." My customers appreciate the less offensive smell of the biodiesel exhaust and my client orientation always includes a moment to discuss biodiesel and the other sustainable technologies I have implemented aboard the Gato Verde. It is wonderful to be in a region with a consistent, high quality biodiesel supplier which shares my commitment to the environment and furthering the evolution of sustainable technologies and sustainable communities.
