For the first time since Donald Campbell CBE’s tragic death on Coniston Water in 1967, his record-breaking hydroplane, Bluebird K7, is to be reunited with the prestigious World Water Speed Trophy. The reunion will take place at the Royal Motor Yacht Club (RMYC) in Poole.
The World Water Speed Trophy, which has been awarded to the fastest boat on water for the past 87 years, will be displayed alongside Bluebird K7 at a special event on Friday, 4 October at 10:30 am. Media representatives are invited to attend the picture call at RMYC, where they will have the chance to photograph this historic reunion.
The Royal Motor Yacht Club in Poole, as custodian of the World Water Speed Trophy, is honoured to bring these two symbols of world record achievement together again, celebrating Campbell’s lasting impact on the world of speed records and commemorating his extraordinary career.
