Rogues' Memories - Adventures with Rex Wotton.

Rex Wotton managed the West Coast Watersports shop at Coral Reef hotel, just up the beach from Settlers Beach. The shop took hotel guest diving and on daytime and sunset cruises along the coast. He was an expert seaman trained by the Royal Merchant Navy in ship navigation, and marine work.

Rex Wotton was among the most charming Rogues of Barbados. He had a woderful sense of fun and used it to win over every situation. Sailing to St. Vincent with a friend at age 11 shows his spirit of adventure. He encouraged all to join him in pranks and daredevil acts, making it seem safe, easy, and a joy. Often reckless, he took extreme but calculated risks.


He was a powerful high-energy figure at 5 feet 8 inches, well built, with untidy, light-brown hair and piercing blue eyes. Not one for formal exercises; he did not run, jog, push weights, or do any approved gym. Hard work, energetic play, and managing the West Coast water was his physical exercise. He sailed, instructed scuba diving, and was always busy taking care of boats, engines, and gear. He ferried people, food, drinks, and scuba gear, from hotels to oceans and had a full schedule of on-the-job workouts. The scuba tanks were heavy, and it was a high-impact sport to stack 20 tanks into the old VW van. They had to be unpacked and stacked in the dive shop and later strapped onto guests for the deep dives and shallow water instructions. He was seldom still.
