Rogues' Memories - Adventures with Rex Wotton.

Experience this fun story of a genuine rogue who is an adventurer at heart and an all-around sport with an over-developed sense of fun.  Together with his parents, Les and Muriel, Rex Wotton ran the West Coast Watersports center at Coral Reef hotel, just up the beach from Settlers Beach. The shop took hotel guest diving and on daytime and sunset cruises around the coast. He was a master seaman trained by the Royal Merchant Navy in all matters of navigation, and marine work. Rex was one of the most charming Rogues of Barbados. His spirit of joy and sharp wit surrounded every situation.



I watched him walking out of the ocean at Settlers Beach Villa Beach Hotel, in full diving gear, wetsuit, and tank, Rex looked like a James Bond character on a mission. He had dagger strapped to his calf and carried rods of dynamite . His mission was to plant explosives around the reefs, set to blow when he got out of the water. It was a government-approved job to create a swimming area for visitors. The explosion shook the buildings just moments after he was on land. "Oh!" he chuckled, just a little worried," Perhaps a stick too much dynamite on that one."
