Location of \"Bluebird II\"?

Can anyone help me track down the owners of this classic motor yacht that once belonged to Malcolm Campbell? The last I knew of her, she was based in Rotterdam and available for charter, however, I can't seem to find any contact details for her...

Is this the one that was built in Goole just before the war?
A friend of mine bought her in the USA and motored her back to the uK in the early 80's.

She was, a few years ago, owned by Robert Harvey-George, who can be found at Cornish Land Rover services. 01326 372511

Yes, that's the one, but the site doesn't help with finding it! I will try the Bluebird site, thanks Casey.

Bluebird II was last seen two years loaded on a freighter for transport down to the Med, I understand from Martin Summers the owner of the other Bluebird that BB II has been bought by a member of 'I think' the Getty family anyway a very wealthy one and will have a complete refit.
The other Malcombe Campbell ship Chico is owned by the ex Commodore of the ADLS and it was he who spotted Bluebird II aboard the freighter while sailing in the Engliss Channel.

I've had manys the glass of Geniver aboard BB II on her ADLS runs to Ipswich, Chatham, the last time was in both Dover and Dunkirk in 2005.
