Mr Whoppit - With Gina Campbell

With Gina Campbell

In later years, Donald's daughter Gina Campbell also adopted Whoppit as a mascot for her own water record-breaking attempts. These led to Whoppit's third high-speed crash.

In 1995 she offered him for auction, together with other Campbell memorabilia, although he failed to reach the reserve and remains in her possession. The decision to auction off Mr Whoppit was a cause of acrimony between Gina Campbell and Donald's widow Tonia Bern-Campbell, which re-surfaced again during the recovery of Bluebird in 2001. In 2001, Whoppit and Gina Campbell returned to Coniston together for Donald's funeral.
