When was graeme king born

King is preparing to move back to his home country of Australia. Photograph: Kristopher Radder of the Brattlebro Reformer. In , he returned to New England, eventually setting up shop in Putney in , where over the years he has built maybe , by his rough count, racing shells for collegiate teams and sleek rowing boats for people who like to glide along peaceful waters. Now King, at 73, is done with Vermont winters and wants to return permanently to Australia. Puttering around his shop on a rainy Friday, King was working on a foot-long single, made of cedar strips.

King built his first boat, a small canoe, when he was just King was born in Adelaide, South Australia in and started rowing in , picking up some mechanical engineering during an apprenticeship with the South Australian Railways.

In he built his first single, and soon people began to notice the sleek design of his boats and their efficiency on the water. In , Norm Talbot rowed a King-made single to a national championship.

As his reputation grew, demand for his boats grew too. The first thing a young Graeme King noticed when he arrived in March was there were no leaves on the trees.

Not a good first impression. He distinctly remembers going to an art supply store for drawing supplies and getting all he needed except for erasers, which he knew as rubbers. You have to have rubbers. Eventually, he would return to Australia for a few years but would return to the United States, this time Vermont, to set up shop. He started in Woodstock, but just by happenstance, he made a boat for George Heller, who suggested a shop in Putney. Life has always been pretty chaotic. He said that chaos might have been one of the reasons why he was attracted to the art of making boats that quietly glided across the surface of the water, propelled by many hands working in unison.

Along with finishing up his last boat, King has also been doing something that he has loved for a long time — teaching people how to row a pair. In a pair, as opposed to a double where two rowers have two oars, two rowers have one oar each. He realizes he is leaving behind a very strong community here in Vermont, but hopes to travel back to visit, at least when the weather is nice. He is moving north of Adelaide, to a small town, Port Pirie, which is about the same size as Brattleboro.
