Hydroplane racing is one of the most popular events in Seattle's annual Seafair celebration. In 2024, Behind the Badge Foundation partnered with the event's organizers, H1 Unlimited, to use it as a platform for remembering officers who'd lost their lives in the line of duty.
Start Your Project TodayHydroplane racing is one of the most popular events in Seattle’s annual Seafair celebration. In 2024, Behind the Badge Foundation worked with the event’s organizer – H1 Unlimited – to use it as a platform for remembering officers who’d had lost their lives in the line of duty.
Decals representing one of eight previously recognized officer’s names were applied to the tail fin of each hydroplane. Friends and family were invited to attend the races, tour the boats, and meet with racers and event officials, who presented them with memorial plaques.
The event presented a unique opportunity to highlight how the Foundation uses similar occasions to build community for those left behind. Our goal was to create a video that captured the day's happenings, the stories of those attending, and first person testimonials.
