Biography

Colin McLeod Robertson was one of the 10 crew members aboard Sir Charles McIver’s Mouchette, which won the silver medal in the 12-metre class at the 1908 Olympics. An Ulsterman, Robertson was just one of four non-Merseyside-born crew members. He died at Dumbarton in 1951, which was, coincidentally, the birthplace of the Alfred Mylne, who designed Mouchette.
