Crowds on Yarmouth beach seen here waving off Harry George Hawker
Crowds on Yarmouth beach seen here waving off Harry George Hawker and his mechanic Harry Kauper during their second attempt for the Daily Mail Round Great Britain prize of £ 5000, in a seaplane. The attempt ended near Dublin after they had flown 1043 miles in 21 hours, 44 minutes flying time. Acknowledging that this was the first time that over a 1000 miles had been flown over water, the Daily Mail presented Hawker and his mechanic with a special prize of £ 1000. 26th August 1913
