Douglas Pulman

Doug was just out of school when he was elected as coxswain for the Oamaru four moving from Hamilton to Oamaru for the months prior in the final stages of training for the 1962 Perth Empire Games. Being successful with this crew, Doug was then selected for the 1964 Tokyo Olympic Games eight. He retired after these games with increasing weight making it difficult for him to continue as a coxswain. Doug passed away in December 2011.
