The man set to drive the legendary Bluebird K7 once again on Coniston Water | Motor Boat & Yachting

Can we safely push the limits of water speed, or is the risk too high? On January 4th, 1967, the legendary Donald Campbell tragically lost his life on Coniston Water while attempting to break the world water speed record in Bluebird K7. Today, against the backdrop of a stunning, sunny day in the Lake District, history comes alive as Bluebird K7 returns to the water. In this interview for MBY, Phil Sampson sits down with Dave Warby — the pilot tasked with driving K7 and the son of Ken Warby (the current world water speed record holder at 317.59 mph). Dave opens up about the spiritual experience of sitting in Campbell's cockpit, the technical fuel-starvation issues they are battling at 80% power, and the reality of modern risk management that is paralysing speed records. ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to MBY's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/user/ybwtv?su... ► For the latest reviews, new gear launches and tour news, visit our website here - http://www.mby.com ► Like us on Facebook:   / motorboatandyachting   ► Follow us on Twitter:   / mbymagazine   ► Follow us on Instagram:   / motorboat_and_yachting   ► What did you think?
