William "Bill" junior spent his whole life on or by the Thames, and became a waterman's apprentice in 1882, the year he won the Putney Badge. In 1887, Bill won the Doggett's Coat and Badge Race, and in 1891, the English Sculling Championship. However, he never defended this title. Seven years later, in 1898, he was appointed a waterman to the Queen. He retired from professional sculling around 1903/04 and in June 1906, he became the King's Bargemaster. He also stroked in the winning Champion Fours in the National Regattas of 1890 and 1891, and also the Champion Pairs.Bill was a very popular person on the Thames and was early on connected to Cambridge University Boat Club, to train and coach the crews. He published the 'how-to' book Rowing and Sculling in 1904. In later life, Bill became a publican and ran the Prince's Head hotel and the Pigeon Hotel at Richmond. The Doggett Coat and Badge The race is the oldest rowing race in the world. Up to six apprentice watermen of the Thames compete for this prestigious honour, which has been held annually since 1715. The 4 miles 5 furlongs (7.44km) race is rowed upstream from London Bridge to Cadogan Pier, Chelsea, passing under a total of 11 bridges.
